dixiedoodah 1,003 Report post Posted May 16, 2018 (edited) I cant decide if hes a douche or if hes an old man being manipulated by his douchey older kids. The daughter admitted the pictures were her idea. And then theres the brother who keeps publishing his handwritten open letter.

witchkitten 309 Report post Posted May 16, 2018 I'm sure the dad is no father of the year given that he has two older children who are incredibly messed up, and he was estranged from Meghan for a good chunk of her childhood IIRC, but I do think the British press is being harder on him than he deserves. To my knowledge he hasn't done anything like his older children, and in response to the nastiness of the British press Buckingham Palace put out a statement asking them to stop so I don't think he's as bad as he's being portrayed. Again, he doesn't seem like a great father either but he and Meghan did form some sort of relationship after their estrangement and she does/did intend to have him walk her down the aisle. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dixiedoodah 1,003 Report post Posted May 16, 2018 (edited) I'm guessing her family will milk this for the rest of their lives. At least Pippa is a little more subtle about it lol. https://www.google.com/amp/amp.tmz.com/2018/05/16/meghan-markle-half-sister-samantha-hospitalized-broken-ankle Didnt take long for that prediction to come true Meghan Markle's half-sister reportedly hospitalized after encounter with paparazzi Meghan Markle's half-sister, Samantha Grant, has reportedly been hospitalized after a confrontation with paparazzi in Florida. According to TMZ, Grant's boyfriend, Mark, claims they were driving together near a toll booth when a paparazzi photographer veered his or her vehicle in front of them to try to get a clear shot. Mark allegedly swerved to the left in an attempt to avoid the photographer and hit a concrete barrier. Grant, who has MS, reportedly hit the windshield and fell to the floor mat where she was unable to lift herself back up. He claims that her foot was twisted backwards and she had to be driven to the nearest E.R. where doctors are treating her. The photographer allegedly fled the scene. The news comes just days before Grant's half-sister is set to marry Prince Harry at the highly anticipated royal wedding on Saturday. As previously reported, Grant has been turning the traditional British occasion into a bit of a media circus by airing the family's dirty laundry in the public eye. Most notably, she recently took the blame for Markle's father, Thomas, participating in staged paparazzi photos designed to improve his image. This prompted Thomas to flip flop on whether or not he'd attend the royal wedding. Ultimately, he was forced to undergo heart surgery on Wednesday and must remain on bedrest. Now it seems that Grant too is going to be in the hospital for an undetermined amount of time. She, however, did not receive an invite to the royal wedding on Saturday and hasn't been shy about making the bad blood between them public.

princess 1,710 Report post Posted May 17, 2018 The Bigs Versus The Smalls May 17, 2018 [Blind Gossip] This story involves one wedding and two families. Let’s call them Big Family and Small Family. Actress Small’s relatives are are seething today over Actress’ influence on the media. They say that she is seriously damaging their entire family. [The Smalls] were all set to make some money by doing commentary on her and the wedding. However, a liaison for [big Family] called in a favor to keep them off the air! (Actually, it might have been more of a threat than a favor.) Basically, their liaison told the program that if they put any of [small’s] relatives on air, [big Family] would consider it a “grievous breach of decorum” and would cut off the program and possibly the network from future access to Actress Small and the entire [big Family]. The program and the network panicked. It only took about an hour for them to capitulate and cancel on [The Smalls]. [The Smalls ] did put up an enormous fuss about it. They were going on about [Actress] and [The Bigs] and how everyone was conspiring to hurt their family. Fuss all you like, Smalls! You are not going to mess with The Bigs OR Actress Small’s “big day”!

tyler 408 Report post Posted May 18, 2018 Jeez I feel bad for her. The whole ugly white trash American show in full force. But more importantly, my nightly news said the rumor is Eugenie is pregnant. Any thoughts on how much she hates her family if she really is and now cant get married until October? That whole side of the family is a bit off -- Fergie is all bent because she wasn't invited to some dinner. Something about Charles being embarrassed about the toe sucking pics -- this coming from a man who said he wished he was Camilla's tampon. As far as Meghan's family -- they are all bent because they were not invited. Given they way they are acting I don't blame her. Any word on who will walk her down the aisle? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
