I wish everyone would stop talking about these people...stop giving them attention.

When does Suits start airing again? It will be a welcome change when the headlines change from what Samantha said today to what Rachel did on the recent episode.

I'm done clicking on any articles re Samantha, but based on the reports here, she thinks Meghan should get a protective order for her. Or control the tabloids somehow. Delusional. That's all.

ACO · #**863** 01-12-2018, 10:28 AM

Suits should start up soon and I expect her co stars to be constantly bombarded by questions about her. Sarah Rafferty was on a red carpet the other week and one of the first things out their mouth was "Have you talked to Meghan?" and she said she had spoken to her recently and then changed the direction of the interview.

Cocoasneeze · #**864** 01-12-2018, 10:32 AM

I feel bad for her co-stars, but they have Meghan's back, and it'll give new headlines.

Another thing is Samantha's comment about Meghan said let's keep in touch was intended to show that they aren't estranged, but it really just confirmed to everyone that they weren't that close even before then. When was the last time you said let's keep in touch to people you see or talk to regularly?

Generally people say "let's keep in touch" to high school classmates once they graduate and go to another school. It's at least what I've heard often in my life. Most of the times the "in touch" falls in dead waters once you're used at your new school (or there is no "in touch" at all).

I will be shocked if the Markle siblings get an invite to the wedding. Can not blame Meghan.
Its true all people who have married into the family have had someone try to cash in during the lead-up to the wedding but not like this. And this significant a relation, not just distant friends
Like Kate had uncle Gary with his tastless & embarrassing antics but he never came across as malicious or trying to cash-in. He was proud and braging about his new royal connections. Improper behaviour and an embarrassment but I dont think anyone can say he resents or hates Kate.

The Markle half-siblings on yhe other hand

- Very mean and spiteful comments and trying to destroy their sisters reputation
-jealous
- attention seeking and trying to cash-in
-I dont get the they "love their sister" feeling even though Lord knows they are trying to sell that
The fact that they have not talked to their sister to years is the biggest flag, something happened prior to Harry even coming on to the scene

If Meghan decided to cut ties all those years ago, then good for her and continue on girl!!
I dont need to know the story, these people are toxic

I dont think they need someone to talk to them to keep quiet, the more they talk, the more people are realising that the problem is them not Meghan

I wouldn't blame him for trying to hide from his older kids!

That said, I think it's worth pointing out that him living in Mexico is hardly "hiding." The way the DM refers to it, you'd think he lives in some remote village on the Yucatan Peninsula. The town where he lives is in many ways in the greater "SoCal" area. It's just a few miles over the US-Mexico border and only a 3 hour drive from LA. The area is heavily marketed to folks in LA and San Diego as one of the closest places to find affordable vacation/retirement homes with beach access.

Isn't that the truth. There is a saying that it's one thing to stay quiet and let people think you are stupid, it's another to open your mouth and confirm it for them. Samantha should take note.

Not just the keep in touch part...

"‘I love you, babe. I’m really glad we had this conversation. Keep in touch’."

That whole phrase smacks to me of something you say after you just had a hard, clearing-the-air talk that you'd been avoiding, are glad to have it over with, and are trying to move as politely and non-dramatically back into a phase of ignoring each other. I mean, who knows what they'd actually talked about, unless it was the same conversation where Sam admits to pressuring Meghan to give money to their father.

Note how Sam freely admits to getting upset that the her perceived place in the pecking order was challenged (in relation about a matter that should be just between Meghan and her dad):

"Wow! I guess big sister is being told to step off. That’s not her place to say..."

The more she shares, the more Sam looks like a sad, grasping and bitter woman.

It AMAZES me that so many here are so obsessed by the disreputable statements by FRINGE members of the Markle Family.
No-one in Britain is remotely exercised by it, bothered by it, or even aware of it...

They see a Man they love, in love with a Woman, and they LOVE it - that is enough for them...no-one cares about the peripherals.

I thinks its because they are her half-siblings and thus cannot simply be ignored as fringe members of the family.
Its true that they have not played any role in her life in recent years but that "sister" , "brother" label gets you attention from the press.
Case in point, Pippa Middleton

Madame Verseau · #**873** 01-12-2018, 12:44 PM

This is getting hilarious. In the Fox interview the statement from KP is telling. Mentioning Meghan's parents' possible role and not the half siblings? KP is signalling Sam, Tom Jr and the rest of the family that blabbed are not invited. And let Sam cry I was snubbed. The reasons will be so evident the public wouldn't care less, judging by the blowback she and the Markles are getting now. If Sam wants protection for herself and the relatives she can use her money from her tabloid stories to pay for private security or contact local law enforcement.

MARG · #**874** 01-12-2018, 12:46 PM

I would have to agree. . . If you are in the US. I don't really think a country weaned on Emmerdale and Coronation street gives a damn about siblings at this point. That may change I guess but for now they are looking on the upside.

Sam revealed a whole lot and confirmed what most suspected. She IS very jealous and bitter about Meghan. Sam was 17 years old when Meghan was born. Before Meghan was even in kindergarten, Sam was married and already had her first child. That is why Meghan says she grew up an only child. She did. Thomas doted on Meghan and provided for her in ways he didn't with Sam and Tom Jr. That was confirmed by both of them. He came into more money (and success) later in life. That is not on Meghan. Yet it is clear Sam blames Meghan for it. She can't help herself. The older sister outshines by the younger one. She always felt some kind of way about Meghan and there is no denying it no matter how much she tries.

I agree with the underlined bit.

Many here have already acknowledged that Samantha Grant flip flops and changes her stories at will. And for me because Samantha has shown time and again how economical with the truth she can be, I don’t believe she spoke to Meghan either when she says she did. I think they were estranged long before Meghan’s first marriage which btw she didn’t attend or she’d have sold the pictures by now if she had as nothing appears out-of-bounds to Samantha or her full blood brother Tom Jr.

My opinion is that although the rampant disloyalty, smears, lies to the press/media told by the estranged half relations about Meghan is due in part to jealousy, it is also because she has a different mother. And to give their stories added weight they try to create an illusion of having been very close to her up until recently. I also believe Samantha wants an entry into Meghan’s new life and that’s why she appears conflicted, being nasty about Meghan one minute and playing nice the next.

Sam is now on the Game Show Network with a Meghan special, saying she will do whatever it takes to be at the royal wedding:

This is getting scary. Sam is coming up to the line of stalker. And it's telling that the media is starting to wonder about Sam in print. I hope the RPO's and UK security agencies are taking a look here.

It's not at all the same.
Kate and Pippa have always been very close, and spend a lot of time together.

Meghan has seen very little of her half-siblings for a decade; they have virtually no contact and know nothing of her life now.
What can they truly reveal to the press, other than some minor details about Meghan's childhood?

It is baffling, her end goal seems to be just to get an invite to.the wedding, whatever way possible. She's coming across a bit out of it to me.

I agree. I am actually concerned about Meghan's safety with this one. She is obsessed with her and it is extremely unhealthy. I wouldn't allow her anywhere near her. She making a case to be seen as a threat.
