Samantha has a history of explosive online tirades directed at Meghan, and this latest outburst shows the feud is far from over.
The controversy escalated after Meghan’s team released a statement claiming she had “reached out” to her estranged father, Thomas Markle, who is recovering in a Philippines hospital after undergoing several surgeries. The twist? Members of the Markle family are insisting that Thomas has had no direct contact from Meghan.
Samantha, quick to fire back online, wrote: “Sources report seeing my sister in the area of the hospital Dad is in. Could she be living up to all of that paid PR?”
A Family in Crisis
Thomas Markle was rushed to the hospital after a significant decline in his health. According to those close to him, he’s hopeful that this medical scare might finally lead to a reconciliation with Meghan. The pair once shared a close relationship, but things fell apart shortly before her royal wedding when Thomas staged paparazzi photographs—an incident that ultimately fractured their bond.
The Daily Mail has reported that Meghan has still not contacted her father, despite the statement from her team indicating otherwise.
Samantha’s Satirical Attack
Frustrated by what she believed to be misleading PR, Samantha took her criticism even further. She posted an AI-generated video portraying Meghan flying on a broomstick, holding a sign that read “fake as ever,” a jab at her lifestyle brand, As Ever.
But that wasn’t the end of it. Samantha doubled down, captioning the video: “Sources report seeing my sister in the area of the hospital Dad is in. Could she be living up to all of that paid PR?”
She later reposted her own message and added: “If she is smart and at all humane, she will find a way to help Dad in his rehabilitation, especially since, reportedly, one of the companies she and Harry donated to manufactures prosthetics.”
Samantha continued: “Recovery will be a long road. It would be good for her, and it would be good for Dad. You can lead a horse to water…” She also reassured followers that their father is expected to recover.
Conflicting Accounts
While Thomas himself has expressed a desire to reconnect—telling the Daily Mail he believes Meghan may have emailed an inactive address—another source disputes the public narrative entirely.
According to this insider, the outlet “failed to verify details,” and Meghan did email her father but kept the matter quiet to avoid publicity. The source added that Meghan even reached out to reporters for updated contact information and called hospitals in the Philippines in an effort to locate him, as she no longer has an active number for him.
