Samantha Markle told TMZ that Thomas Markle isn’t watching ‘Harry & Meghan’

Within Netflix’s Harry & Meghan docuseries, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex did an interesting job of contradicting Thomas Markle’s many narratives. To be fair, Thomas Markle’s own narratives are contradictory and full of lies. That’s what happens when the British media hires a vile idiot to read a script. In the Netflix series, Meghan describes the last time she actually spoke to her father and how he lied to her and she felt he was being “cagey.” Then, during a chunk of Thomas Markle’s (faked) heart attack narrative, Meghan and Harry were texting him because he wouldn’t pick up the phone, and suddenly, Meghan had the realization that her father wasn’t the one texting her back. Doria Ragland was upset but kind of unsurprised that Toxic Tom’s behavior was so awful. Anyway, it’s clear that Samantha was a major driving force in this chaos and I would guess that Samantha was the one texting from Thomas Markle’s phone.

Currently, Toxic Tom is still “recovering” from the stroke he conveniently faked just before he was supposed to fly to the UK for the Jubbly. The stroke (“stroke”) is his cover story for being unable to do TV appearances where he recites the scripts written by Piers Morgan and Dan Wootton. Thankfully, Samantha Markle is there (??) in Mexico and speaking on behalf of her father:

Thomas Markle is steering clear of his daughter’s docuseries, “Harry & Meghan” … according to Meghan’s half sister, who says their father’s more focused on his health than the project she calls “disrespectful.”

Samantha Markle tells TMZ … she’s protecting her dad by telling him not to watch the new doc, saying Meghan’s kicked Thomas while he was down in the past, and a series like this just further disrespects their fam. Samantha says Thomas doesn’t know what’s in the series, and doesn’t need to find out.

She doesn’t think he’d even want to watch, because the royal family ordeal has been damaging to his health for a while. Most importantly, he’s still recovering from the stroke he suffered earlier this year.

Samantha claims it was always Meghan’s decision for Thomas to not be in her life — and while he’s accepted the disconnect, she says it’s a numb feeling for him.

[From TMZ]

I mean… Meghan repeatedly tried to contact him ahead of the wedding, then she cut her losses when her father went on a publicity tour through the British media in the summer of 2018. That’s when she wrote him the letter, which he gave/sold to the Mail in 2019. He always knew what he would have to do to have a relationship with Meghan. He refused. So she refuses to speak to him or see him.

As for Samantha, she was an unfit mother who didn’t raise her own children. Samantha explained her decision-making for why she allowed her kids to be raised by their paternal grandparents – apparently, she didn’t trust babysitters? Sure. I do not say this lightly: she is such a f–king psycho.

    I think the docuseries did a good job of exposing Scammy and her father for the frauds they are.

    • Kelly says:

      It’s funny because they clearly do it for the quick cash, but if Tom had kept his mouth shut, it’s clear that Harry and Meg would have made sure he was taken care of for the rest of his life. Look at Doria-she is an incredible rock and never said a word and I guarantee that she never wants for anything. Tom just couldn’t resist the instant money and I bet he’s already blown through it.

      • My opinion says:

        I am sure the sussexes pay for security for Doria and she’s semi protected from paps, would not be surprised if she lived in the guest house on their estate for security reasons. The media have made it so dangerous for this family, except for Tom, because he’s in bed with the paps and racists.

  2. Blue Nails Betty says:

    Translation: Samantha and Tom are obsessively watching the doc on repeat.

    • Debbie says:

      Either that or injecting it directly into their veins, one or the other.

    • Yvette says:

      They so ‘are’ watching the documentary. There is a Daily Mail article with the title header “Thomas Markle: It WAS me texting Meghan from my sick bed before her wedding to Harry, here’s the proof … The Duchess of Sussex told Netflix her father never called her ‘Meghan’ so she assumed his phone had been ‘compromised’, here he blows the claim apart.” Perhaps TMZ doesn’t keep track of other gossip sites, but the DM story is from 23-hours ago.

      And Samantha’s explanation as to why she didn’t raise her kids would have better weight if it hadn’t been her own daughter who told the story about being adopted and and raised by her paternal grandparents.

      • Agreatreckoning says:

        They (Bad 1/2 sis & Bad Dad) are absolutely watching the series no effing doubt.

        Uhmmm..’let my kids live with their grandparents (fyi paternal), because I didn’t trust babysitters to be with my children”. OMFG. Rewriting history is her history. No wonder Wootton/Morgan/BM love her. She’s just like them. Sick effin f*ck.

        No b*tch, you lost custody of your children because you were abusive and absolutely unqualified to parent. You sold out your children. Which is probably one of the best things you were forced? to do because, once again, you didn’t meet parental obligations. Dying at use of the word ‘let’. Single parents everywhere that have fought for their children are rolling their eyes.

  3. C-Shell says:

    The 🐀🐀🐀 desperation must be peak to drag this hag out of the swamp to bash Meghan and the doc. AND WE HAVEN’T EVEN GOTTEN TO THE LAST THREE EPISODES! Some of the Deranged probably still buy the drivel she’s selling, but the vast majority of humanity knows she’s a lying grifter, so you go right ahead Piers, Dan, et al. Have your fun.

  4. Amie says:

    Of course he is. No way he’d be able to stop himself. Same with the Royals. They’re all watching.

    • Anonymous says:

      I’ve long thought part of the problem with the Royals is that they don’t watch or read the things about themselves, rather the Men in Grey do and then report their selective spin on it as “facts”. Even if someone were trying to totally objectively summarize it for their boss, there could be things they miss or misinterpret, like a game of telephone. It’s a system that’s ripe for mistakes and disaster. They should all watch it, hear what is said with their own ears, also get exact transcripts, then work with their crisis managers and PR people and personal advisors (you’d hope that would include competent therapists/counselors and/or spiritual advisors), and process how to react or not in a way that best benefits their higher selves, everyone involved and of course, their business and responsibilities to their country. I watched it with the closed captioning on and was even surprised at the difference in what’s being said vs written in the captions. Too much room for error by just relying on “being aware of the headlines” and other people telling you what was said, or snippets selectively taken out of context (whether innocently or to serve someone’s agenda). This family needs to realize they need to stick together.

      As for Thomas, I’m not convinced his heart attack/stroke were faked, based on his apparent health and the fact that these types of situations are exactly when people have heart attacks and strokes. And I do think he’s probably watching too because he probably can’t help himself (unless he’s really under medical orders not to do so). I don’t know what’s wrong with him, it seems like he did well for Meg for a long time and then this pressure (and maybe Samantha and the tabloids) got to him. I read somewhere a former Royal aide saying they really should have taken him out of Mexico and to England for protection before the news of their engagement broke at least, they didn’t handle this well at all and not they way they could have given their resources.

      It seems as though this invisible contract William and Harry are the first generation to grow up under is not working and they should get out of it because it seems toxic. They should create a better future for the next Royals. Poor kids in the scene in Switzerland when they had to pose before skiing. It was heartbreaking to hear William ask one of the girls if she was OK.

      • Kingston says:

        @Anonymous
        Are u telling us that toxictom is mentally deficient? Is there something u know that neither his daughter nor the rest of us know?

        Because M’s mother ALSO came under the same if not worse scrutiny & pressure from the same britshidtrags as toxictom and you wanna know what she did? As she told us in the docu, she said to the little piece of shidt from the britshidtrag who told her she could get a lot of money to gossip about her own daughter: “THATS MY CHILD! I HAVE NOTHING TO SAY TO YOU.”

        Now tell us again why poor little toxictommy couldn’t say & do the same.

        KMT

      • TigerMcQueen says:

        Based on specific behaviors Tom was exhibiting in when being carted off for his ‘stroke’ I absolutely belive the stroke part was faked. He may have had a medical issue, but no competent medical professional would have looked at him (talking to a paramedic ffs) and said it was symtoms of a stroke.

        Also, did you miss the part in the documentary when H&M told Tom they’d get him out of Mexico and into England? And he ghosted them?

        H&M did all they could, he’s just a toxic, horrible human being who is using his daughter (and the hate industry the British tabloids built around her) for his share of the $$$.

      • Jaded says:

        It was entirely Tom’s decision to nope out of Meghan’s wedding. It was entirely Tom’s decision to sell information about her and portions of her private correspondence to him to the tabloids. His so-called heart attack and stroke were as fake as Dolly Parton’s boobs. He and ‘The Other Daughter’ milked Meghan’s romance and marriage to Harry for money. They trashed, lied about and smeared her for money, plain and simple. The ‘poor pitiful me’ narrative was completely made up for sympathy. I’m glad it backfired on them, they are garbage people.

      • BeanieBean says:

        Anonymous: if he really had a heart attack or stroke or both, that would have been caused by his genetics & lifestyle, not his daughter’s being thrust in the limelight for getting engaged to a prince. And why contemplate protecting her father but not her mother? That makes no sense.

      • Lorelei says:

        @Anonymous, it’s been years now and Tom has pulled so much other crap, but I remember that if you were following at the time, he was absolutely faking it. For some reason I remember a detail about him being seen at a McDonald’s drive-thru the day he was released from the hospital, or the day after, smiling and waving, and paps following him claimed he never went to a hospital.

        The whole thing was ridiculous. He just lies constantly. And I don’t know why you’d be predisposed to believe him over M&H at this point, especially when they showed the texts onscreen. They had a legal team vet everything before Netflix aired that.

      • Anonymous says:

        I think I didn’t express myself correctly at all because I wasn’t focused, I’m totally stressed in the ER myself with a family member all morning and kept getting interrupted. People with heart attacks and strokes all around me, so I think that’s why I’m saying “maybe that was real?”

        I 100% think Tom should’ve acted like Doria.
        I also 100% think the Royal family should’ve offered him (and Meghan and her Mom) more support (not blaming any of this on Harry and Meghan who seem like they were doing everything they could), but even without it he should’ve 100% acted like Doria.
        I was saying I thought it’s possible he did have a heart attack or stroke (he looks totally unhealthy) but I wasn’t keeping close tabs on either events, don’t remember the details and wasn’t insinuating anyone else caused it other than him/his medical conditions if it was real. I also think it’s 100% possible he faked them totally. I think if Meghan didn’t think her dad was telling the truth, her gut was probably right.

        I guess that shows me not to comment without the ability to focus and when trying to distract myself at the hospital. Hope you and yours all stay healthy and safe and have Happy Holidays this year!

      • Saucy&Sassy says:

        Anonymous, I hope your family member will be alright. I’m sorry this is happening during the time of year when everyone is already stressed.

      • Gill says:

        What is conveniently forgotten in all this is that it was the Fail on Sunday that sat on the faked paparazzi pics for weeks then deliberately broke the story less than a week before the wedding…it was also the DM who followed/stalked him afterwards and cast doubts on whether he had had a heart attack in the first place…..they are the ones who put him in the spotlight, they are the ones who outed him as a liar, they are the ones who wrecked M’s relationship with her dad and they are the ones who have changed the narrative, it actual disgusts me 😡😡

      • Jais says:

        They are also the ones, the DM, who have close relations with both Camilla and William. Funny that.

      • Agreatreckoning says:

        Thank you @Gill. I’m pretty sure it was the MoS “breaking” on the the Fail’s story. The Mail on Sunday “breaking” their sister publications “story”. It’s like the New York Post or TMZ “breaking news” from Page Six. They’re under the same ownership. Yes, it is widely believed that the Bad Dad’s photo setups started in March 2018 and were intentionally held until May 2018. Yep, it was the DM/MoS that put the articles out there. It’s also Jeff Rayner, Karl Larsen, Dylan Howard,, Jason Knauf/KP that worked hard to get the lies out there.

        Scamantha has always felt embolden slamming Meghan because she was empowered to do so.

  5. girl_ninja says:

    Please, like Willy and Katie they are glued watching the documentary on repeat. What a disgusting duo. That old fool really let Samantha manipulate him into betraying Meghan and now he’s lost his only dependable daughter. No excuse for that horrible man but I’m sure S. Grant preyed on his insecurities and convinced him to betray Meghan. Not excuses for him listening to her but that’s what I believe.

    • Ronaldinhio says:

      I think he did this on his own. She is a trash fire and scam artist but he is a compulsive liar.
      I don’t think his narcissism would allow himself to be commented on on a world wide scale – hence imagined heart attacks and stroke prior to physical appearances

      • Debbie says:

        I absolutely agree with this. I’ve always thought that TM acted on his own impulses. And, yes, Scamantha still rots.

    • Tessa says:

      Tom is to blame he made the choice to listen to Sam and go to the media. If he really loved Meghan he never would have gone to the media to slam her.

      • Lorelei says:

        Tom already gave a response! I can’t remember what site I saw it on. Maybe he’ll claim he didn’t watch it, but “someone told him” what was said and that’s how he’s able to comment. But he’s a pathological liar, so whatever.

        I would love to never, ever so much as have to scroll by a photo of him again. He’s repulsive.

      • Saba says:

        I also blame TMZ. They play a huge role in this too.

        They stalked and hounded every person connected to Meghan, offering cash and a platform as the bait. But their real agenda was to expose and ridicule anyone who accepted their offer.

        For example, they approached Tom to get him to take wedding prep photos, told him they did this all the time with celebs, and it would make him look like a good dad while earning some cash.

        But it’s not the story they published. It was just a ruse to expose Tom for accepting their offer, and make Meghan look bad. The intention was always to cause drama and bring Meghan down.

        Had TMZ done the story they promised Tom, Meghan would’ve had a father at her wedding.

      • Lionel says:

        @Saba, I have zero sympathy for Tom given all we know now, but at the time I was confused about why the picture setup was such a big deal. I was like OK, Meghan’s dad is hard-up and unsophisticated, someone came to him and said we’ll take some cute photos of you preparing for the wedding and also we’ll pay you for it. Was it a dumb move to say yes? Sure. But was it a terrible crime? I didn’t think so. He’s never come across as the brightest bulb on the tree.

        But IIRC it wasn’t TMZ who set him up with the pictures, it was a British tabloid. He went to TMZ afterwards and used them as his mouthpiece.

      • Saba says:

        I also have zero sympathy for Sam and Tom. They should have NEVER spoke to the press. But you’re right, it wasn’t a crime!

        Regular people, celebs and the royal family accept money and favours from the press all the dang time. The royal family more than anyone! The daily fail is almost exclusively comprised of these arrangements! But they never do a ‘bait and switch’ on ANYONE ELSE and make the tacky money grab the story. Yet they did with Meghan. We have to ask why. No matter what Meghan did, they would always find a way to discredit her.

  6. equality says:

    So the grandparents could take over completely but couldn’t function as just sitters when she wasn’t around? And turning over custody meant never seeing the children? There was no in-between with at least visitation? TMZ just takes statements for the entertainment value and cares nothing about the truth behind them.

    • Jan says:

      “Allegedly” Scammy was pulled over for a DUI with the toddlers in the car, after the court case the father took the children to his parents in Virginia, where it was alleged that 10K was handed over and the grandparents adopted the children.
      Not sure what the father story was, but he remained in their lives.
      Noelle was remove from Scammy, court papers showed abuse was going on, the mother’s *imp was sending Noelle abusive texts, it’s all in the court records in New Mexico, they’re floating around on Twitter.
      Scammy is pretty litigious, will sue at the drop of a hat.
      She claims she has MS, but sued a landlord claiming she hurt her back on his property.

      • kelleybelle says:

        Another lie. She has a spinal cord injury. Her own mother when spoken to by a Squaddie confirmed that. It’s not MS. The injury was from a fall of 14 feet and not 70 like she claimed.

    • Jan says:

      I think Scammy was living in New Mexico, the Hales in Virginia.

  7. kelleybelle says:

    Not sure why some people think it was Scam texting from Sr.’s phone. She lives in Florida, he is in Mexico. She never sees him or travels there, and he likewise. How is she going to get hold of his phone? It makes more sense that it was Caroline Graham from The Fail, Sr.’s “minder,” who was/is/whatever stationed down there at the time.

    • Shawna says:

      That sounds more on the nose!

    • Kingston says:

      Totally agree. Scummy is stuck there down in Florida……all her judas money from peddling lies to the shidtrags hv dried up and she has NEVER visited toxictom in Mexico anyway.

    • Nic919 says:

      I agree. Tom had tabloid reporters with him in Mexico and they were speaking with him.

      • Lorelei says:

        I don’t believe that even his latest response to the Netflix show was written by him. He claims he was “in hospital.” In the US, everyone would say, “in THE hospital.” So he’s likely still being paid for some tabloid trash to use him against the Sussexes.

    • Saba says:

      For sure.

    • seaflower says:

      Easy to access someone else’s phone – all you need is access to their phone for a minute and you can set it up so you can see their texts on your laptop.

  8. ML says:

    I loathe this woman, and yet I clicked on this article—the hypocrisy is that I would love to deny her a platform. Take her voice and her stories away just like Meghan’s voice and experiences were silenced in favor of the royal rota-feeding, parasitic Markles.

  9. kelleybelle says:

    Scam lost her kids through abuse. She was caught driving impaired with them in the back seat. That was only one incident of abuse. The Hales knew the Markles were straight-up trash.

  10. Tessa says:

    Tom ran to the media and did t.v. specials and admitted he got money from the media. Samantha trying unsuccessfully to rewrite history.

  11. Jan says:

    Toxic Tom is trying to avoid going to court, because he is being sued for threatening one of the people he was giving information to, silly TT found out the guy was making a lot of money and he was only getting a pittance.
    So he supposedly suffered a staged stroke, the court date was pushed back, so TT is going to milk this stroke as long as it keeps him out of court, have to be hard for someone like him, that likes the limelight.

    • aquarius64 says:

      Toxic Tom has a 2 yr restraining order on him for threatening his partner in crime for Pap-gate.

    • BeanieBean says:

      I can’t imagine doctors & hospitals taking a fake stroke lightly. And he’s going to have a hefty bill for all that.

      • Jan says:

        Medicare.
        Doctors have to rule out symptoms, if you have insurance and you tell the doctors, you’re experiencing pain, they will run every test on you, without insurance a pain killer maybe prescribed.

  12. Pumpkin (Was Sofia) says:

    So a lack of a babysitter = completely losing custody of your kids? I guess in her crazy head, sure.

    • kelleybelle says:

      That’s not even the original lie, lol. The original lie was “I wanted them to have a magical childhood.” When in fact she had no clue how to raise anything and murdered Noel’s pets. And her mother raised Bobby from a teen pregnancy in high school. Four kids/three fathers.

      • Emily_C says:

        It wasn’t that she didn’t have a clue. Clueless people make mistakes, but figure things out, and there’s love there. It’s that she was a sadistic, abusive, cruel pos. She knew, and said she knew, exactly how much she could get away with physically abusing Noelle before Noelle would be taken away from her.

      • kelleybelle says:

        Christ, she’s even worse than we knew then. And yet she has a picture of Noel in her shit-heap of a “book” thing that says, “My darling.” How twisted can one be? I maintain that she doesn’t have a clue. She can’t even tell decent lies. Where and to whom did she say she knew how much she could get away with re: physical abuse? I believe you but just never saw/heard that. Her voice nauseates me so I don’t click on her BS.

      • Emily_C says:

        Samantha said it to her own mother, the woman who ended up finally getting custody of Noelle. I saw it in a video clip on Twitter of an interview with Noelle and Noelle’s grandmother. Samantha also at one point (after some man moved in) refused to take Noelle to school, and would call up the school and say Noelle was refusing to go. And she screamed and swore at Noelle when Noelle left her shoes in the living room. And on and on.

        To me, it looks like Samantha’s got narcissistic personality disorder, and to an extreme degree. She thinks everyone will believe everything she says just because she’s the one saying it. This is a woman who admits that, as a teenager, she was furious with baby Meghan for throwing blueberries around the kitchen — and thinks this makes *Meghan* look bad.

      • kelleybelle says:

        Ahh, that. Okay, I knew and saw all that. “If there’s no blood it’s not abuse.” That’s her own sick and twisted justification to herself. I just wish there was an end to her vile malignancy and constant lies. Her whole life is a lie and she spews them all day, and some she gets paid for. It’s truly beyond madness. It’s medically morbid and concerning, this level of obsession/psychopathy.

      • Pumpkin (Was Sofia) says:

        Yikes just yikes. I didn’t know about all this because I don’t pay attention to these people but god, they’re worse than I thought.

      • Lorelei says:

        It’s absolutely amazing how well Meghan’s niece managed to turn out, despite all of this.

      • Jan says:

        I thought Bobby was her half-brother from her mother’s second marriage.

  13. Winter Day says:

    Omg. This woman has a What Ever Happened to Baby Jane vibe to her. A complete nut case.

    • kelleybelle says:

      Certifiable. Violent too, when she was mobile. Karma is sweet. Now she can’t even toilet herself and her hands don’t work and she is dependent on an abusive criminal for care. You reap what you sow.

      • Emily_C says:

        Please don’t talk about disability as comeuppance. I understand the temptation, but that kind of talk does splash damage. For instance, I don’t deserve to have ME/CFS, and a whole lot of disabled people are abused by their caretakers. (I’m not, my husband’s amazing, but I’m lucky.) Disability isn’t a punishment for anything.

      • kelleybelle says:

        Sorry, in this case it is Karma, wouldn’t you agree? That is her reality for the remainder for her days. I am sorry for your conditions. I have one myself but control it with diet and other holistic means. I’m lucky. Again, you think she deserves better after all her evil hatred and violence and lying over how many years? Murdering pets, madly destroying a waterbed out of anger and jealousy? Physically abusing other people? Lying daily for how many years? Being a racist pig?
        … Karma.

      • Lorelei says:

        @KelleyBelle, that may be what she claims, but again, she’s a pathological liar, just like her father. I wouldn’t believe a single word out of her mouth. Plus, she thrives on being a victim constantly. We really have no idea what her health is like but she’s the last person I’d trust to tell us.

        @Emily_C, I have it too, and it’s indescribably awful; I wouldn’t wish it on my worst enemy. ❤️

      • BeanieBean says:

        Sorry, kelleybelle, no, it’s not karma. Is it Emily_C’s karma to have ME/CFS? Is it my karma to have CMT? Please, no. SG is a horrible person, but her current life in a wheelchair has nothing to do with her actions.

      • MicMac says:

        I think karma is frequently misused when the term schadenfruede would be more appropriate.

  14. Brassy Rebel says:

    Well, good, if he’s not watching because then Meghan can’t be blamed for causing his cardiovascular issues which just by looking at him she had nothing to do with in the first place.

    • HeatherC says:

      Nope his health status is almost exclusively due to sitting around pulling overtime on a Miller time shift with Ronald McD.

  15. Zazzoo says:

    Prior to the doc I had never heard about Meghan’s relationship with her niece. It puts the family dynamics in a whole new light. And I completely understand why Meghan wanted to know her niece despite not really knowing her sister. I’d have done the same thing having no siblings myself with a sudden opportunity to have a new family member.

    • Flower says:

      They were also closer in age and had similar interests. I think that relationship made both of them feel less alone.

  16. Debbie says:

    As with everything else that is aired on TV or streamed through Netflix or other subscription companies, people can either watch, if they’re interested, or not watch. Either of those is fine. I find it interesting though that only the white Markles (yeah, I know), and the royal family feel the need to announce publicly that they are not watching this particular program on Netflix. I don’t know, I just find that odd and interesting.

  17. Lady Digby says:

    The final episodes will definitely cover MoS litigation and expose more about Foghorn Leghorn and the machinations of Jason Knife. How could he break NDA and exploit confidential work documents without censure from his employers?

    • MsIam says:

      Bingo Lady Digby! That’s why Baldemort is scurrying around trying to get all his ducks, err lies, in a row. He knows the arrow is headed straight for his head. Charles too, because I’m willing to bet that Harry went to Charles to complain about Knife because Charles was still signing the paychecks for KP.

    • Lionel says:

      Yes I think so too! They’ve mentioned Jason’s name several times so far and they showed that picture of him looking ominous. There would be no reason for a docuseries to introduce him as a character if they weren’t going to expand on it later. My theory is that the directors/editors made the first 3 episodes somewhat bland on purpose to lull the media and RF into a false sense of tranquility, knowing Netflix would get high viewership anyway. And then they’re going to detonate the bombs in the second volume.

  18. TheOriginalMia says:

    Tom & Samantha truly deserve each other. Two toxic grifters who do not care about their children. At all. Tom needs to stay hidden. Keep that same energy. It’s been nice not to see or hear from him. There’s no excusing what he did to her before the wedding. What gets me is she would have forgiven him if he would have stopped, but the money was too damn good. Shameful behavior but we see Sammy comes by her manipulative and cruel nature honestly.

  19. aquarius64 says:

    In the US it takes A LOT for a mother to lose custody of her children, e.g. abuse and child endangerment. Ashleigh has blown up Scammy’s claims in her defamation lawsuit and that’s why she’s on the damage control press tour. The BM probably told her to clean this up because they look like they didn’t vet her, after using her as a source for five years. There may be court documents that details the reason and terms of custody, or Ashleigh’s grandparents may still be alive to counter what fibs Scammy is selling.

    • MsIam says:

      Well supposedly Scamantha voluntarily gave up custody of the older kids. I think Noelle is the one where she lost custody. But yeah I hope some of this blows back on Piers, Wootton and TMZ because they were the main ones platforming Scamantha and giving her carte blanche to run her mouth. Same with Toxic Sr. Also, I hope that article that said something about how William conspired with or encouraged the press to platform Toxic Sr. against Meghan comes to light again.

    In the lead-up to and immediately after, I wondered where the Markles were and how they were staying so silent. I do truly want to know who’s paying them for their silence, these little blurbs are not the unhinged ramblings that we normally get. Who’s paying and why!

    • Jan says:

      The BM and KP.
      T T, Scammy and women beater will do anything for money, they’re white and feel entitled to Meghan’s money.

  21. EliseM says:

    What bothers me the most, is Piers Morgan, TMZ and others paying these people to create SO MUCH HATE for one woman. One mixed race woman. I can not fathom how any parent, sibling or new agency would think this is even remotely justified in any way. The safety of innocent babies are involved. I can’t imagine the trauma M has suffered, and that H has tried to protect her from.

    • Blithe says:

      As sick and as twisted as this is, what’s really unfathomable to me is the point that you just made about “Piers Morgan, TMZ, and others”. What’s driving them? What are they getting out of this? Are there really people so evil, or so fragile, or so whatever, that their business plans involve making bank by exploiting and shamelessly harassing someone — just because they can?

      It is so easy to connect the dots between this type of very personal exploitation and the twisted, hateful, racist underpinnings of colonialism.

      • EliseM says:

        @Blithe that’s the million dollar question isn’t it. Everyone sees the paper trail. Now, how do you stop it?

      • Flower says:

        It’s about clicks and relevancy.

        Two ‘run-away’ Royals is the scoop of the century upon which THOUSANDS of untrue articles can be projected.

        The UK right wing press has made Meghan it’s boogey woman and even Tory MPs are commenting on her getting 000’s of likes.

        Whereas those same gammons liking those posts are getting fed from food-banks and sitting in ‘warm banks’.

        Murdoch, Barclay et al really have the UK in a bind and part of what Meghan and Harry are trying to do is open the eyes of a few. Also they don’t need to win this debate, they just need to speak their peace. The rest will unravel with time.

        In the same way Ngozi Fulani as been treated so horribly, she has paradoxically shined a light on why black people don’t report racism in the UK. Now the fight takes on a new dimension and strategies until finally the bough breaks.

        I applaud Meghan and Harry for their efforts and ironically one day so will William when he realises that the sacrifices of his brother will mean his children are also not bound by the invisible contract. Right now he is just too weak and blind to see it along with the fact that he has way too many skeletons to challenge the media.

  22. Steph says:

    I think Samantha is so sorry bc Tom is, he didn’t need her help. Keep in mind, Doria and Samantha are only 6 years apart. That tells you all you need to know about Tom. Thomas was shit from the get to but neither Doria or Meghan realized it. Everything points to that. Why didn’t Meghan know her siblings? Bc Tom didn’t have a relationship with them. He’s always been a pice of crap.

  23. Vanessa says:

    The Press gleefully used Samantha as a Tool to abuse Meghan in every way possible they want to embarrass Meghan . I’m sure the press knew all too well about Samantha shady past but they didn’t care they were counting on the fact that the people who hated Meghan won’t care about Samantha past or her not even having custody or parental rights to her own children. This was all about embarrassing and hurting Meghan now the same royals reporters and press people who have given this monster of woman a platform a woman who is nothing but a liar have egg on their faces their narratives have blown up in their faces .

  24. Beverley says:

    Oh sure they didn’t! 😄 Scammy watched every second of it, hoping to find something else which might help her flagging lawsuit, if that’s still a thing. The Markles are straight trash! Meghan is her paternal family’s best hope for a meal ticket. They will hang on way past their expiration date!

  25. Greeneyedgirl says:

    Thankgod Ashleigh was raised by her grandparents…I shudder to think what she would have turned out like if Samantha raised her. Ashleigh has done very well for herself, and seems to be a nice person. She seemed hurt she wasn’t invited to the wedding, and Meghan seemed a bit bothered that Ashleigh didn’t attend also. I’m not sure why H & M were advised to not have Ashleigh attend just because Samantha is her bio mom? Ashleigh is an adult who is a successful lawyer. She’s her own person. All that had to be done was to have a statement put out saying something like, “While I was never close to my half sister I am close to her daughter who I reconnected with a few years ago”. Maybe I’m missing something? I hope Ashleigh and Meghan are still close. It’s nice that she has one relative on her fathers side who isn’t crazy.

    • sevenblue says:

      “All that had to be done was to have a statement put out saying something”

      That’s the thing, they were never allowed to make a statement about Meghan’s personal life. Probably because the Palace wanted the tabloids to destroy Meghan. When there was no pushback, the attacks got worse and worse because it was understood that Meghan was a free game. I remember, Kaiser said in the podcast that the british media saw Meghan as theirs to abuse.

    • Jennifer says:

      Probably because having Ashleigh there would require a lot of explaining and nuance that would be utterly ignored by British tabloids. Frankly I would have advised her not to invite the niece too because it would only make things worse and give Shitty Samantha more ammo to whine about to the press.

  26. HeyKay says:

    Oh, just seeing the photo of Samantha Markle makes me angry.
    Her and Thomas, the Dad of M, can both go away.
    Using H&M to grift money.
    I swear these 2 would try to sell a story about what brand of toothpaste Meghan used as a child if they could make a dollar from it.

    Please don’t give them any attention. Awful people.

  27. TeamMeg says:

    I have zero bandwidth for either of these two losers. Let’s just pretend they don’t exist. No clicks.

  28. Robin Samuels says:

    Thomas Markle and his children, TMZ, Jason Knauf via Prince William, and several operatives of a British tabloid orchestrated the smear campaign against Meghan. What they didn’t anticipate was Harry’s genuine affection for her. The objective of driving a wedge between them and ending the relationship didn’t happen; it only tightened the bond. There is no hope for a happy ending for perpetrators. Soon the pointing of fingers and passing the blame will begin. How William will escape will be the most exciting part.
    Samantha initiated the Moonbump conspiracy. She reported that Meghan was unable to conceive due to an excessive number of abortions. The required physical exam by the royal medical department would easily debunk that lie. It’s also why the tabloids did not embrace that theory because they knew it was false. Still, they allowed Samantha and her fandom to carry the torch. Gary Janetti created an entire animation on Instagram based on the “moon bump.” As much as Harry wanted children, why would he marry a woman who could not bear them? That should have convinced any sane person that Samantha Markle is a twisted sociopath. If it were true would have been the multi-million dollar story from the seller of the prosthetic to the surrogate. It hurt that the Royal family didn’t interject and stop the vicious rumor. When Archie and Lilibet are older, they will see some horrible things written about their parents. They will want to know why no one in that family spoke on their behalf. Thomas and his children are pathological liars and grifters. It angers me that women ridicule Meghan for distancing herself from an abusive narcissistic parent. She stated in the series that she was a “daddy’s girl.” It wasn’t her; it was him. Talking about Samantha is painful.

  29. Grace Yancy says:

    Scammy didn’t decide what was best for her kids. It was Child Protective Services!

  30. Nicegirl says:

    Like, f-ck off Scammy. That is hilarious. He’s not watching so they go to TMZ. Bc he’s NOT watching? these assfaces ok

  31. Emily says:

    So far, H&M have handled the Markles and W&K with kid gloves. Meghan is especially being kind to her dad by blaming the media for his betrayal, and highlighting how he was once a loving father.

    • MerlinsMom1018 says:

      @Emily
      I think the operative phrase here is “so far”

      I don’t have Netflix so I can’t watch it, but from all I’ve read and heard fro those who have, the common consensus is there’s rumbling under the surface, just waiting for the right time

  32. Daisy says:

    Samantha has fried hair in the worst style. That is all.
