Meghan Markle’s half-sister slams royals for THIS at Pippa Middleton’s wedding

Mum-of-three Samantha Grant, 51, also known as Samantha Markle, has spoken out about what she thinks of her 35-year-old half-sister’s treatment at the wedding last weekend, and has even claimed that Princess Diana, would have been “appalled to see how Harry’s true love was treated”. 

While the rule on the day was reportedly “no ring, no bring”, Pippa’s brother, James Middleton, brought his girlfriend, TV presenter Donna Air, while Meghan was kept away. 

After the church ceremony, Harry travelled more than 100 miles to pick up Meghan and she then made her appearance at the reception. 

Samantha told RadarOnline.com: “For the royal family to exclude her from the wedding is in very poor taste.”

“To ignore Meghan at the ceremony and for photographs is pure snobbery. 

“She should have been there. She’s classy and her dress was designed as a one-off.” 

Meghan reportedly wore a maroon backless gown to the evening party at Carole and Michael Middleton’s country estate. 

The 20-year anniversary of Princess Diana’s death is approaching, and Samantha said the ‘people’s princess’ would never have treated Meghan so poorly. 

She claimed: “Diana would be appalled to see how Harry’s try love was treated.” 

Despite their differences, Samantha says she is standing by her sister on this one. 

She said: “I haven’t always agreed with some of the things my sister has done but she’s a victim here.” 

Meghan Markle and Prince Harry have been dating since last year, and the relationship is getting steadily more serious with one friend predicting an engagement for the couple. 

Actress Priyanka Chopra, 34, who is a close friend of the Meghan, 35, revealed she is hoping for an engagement between the Suits actress and Prince Harry, 32.

The Baywatch actress spoke about their romance during an appearance on the Wendy Williams Show.

Asked if she predicts a wedding for Meghan and Prince Harry, she replied: “I hope so! She seems happy.”

She continued: “I think they look great together.”
