The Dark Truth About Samantha Markle

Samantha Markle’s beef with Meghan Markle is never-ending. Following Meghan’s interview with Oprah Winfrey, Samantha hit her sister with a lawsuit, claiming that false narratives were given about their relationship, TMZ reported. One point of contention for Samantha was when Meghan stated she grew up as an only child and hadn’t seen her sister for decades. Samantha also hit back at Meghan’s claims that she only changed her last name from Grant after the actor started dating Prince Harry.

The $75,000 suit was ultimately thrown out in court by Judge Charlene Edwards Honeywell, who noted that Samantha did indeed change her married last name to Markle just a couple of months after Meghan and Harry went public, per the BBC. “Therefore, the gist of the statement — that [Samantha] switched to her family name a short time after it was reported [Meghan] was involved with Prince Harry — is true,” Honeywell stated.

As reported by ET, Samantha’s lawyer Peter Ticktin shared that they were going to appeal the decision. He shared, “It is unfortunate to see that some of the press has chosen to wrongly report on the Judge’s ruling as a total win by Meghan. Upon reviewing the order, it is made very clear that the entire case was not tossed out, but in fact, the Judge is allowing Samantha the ability to amend her complaint within a 14-day period.”
