Meghan Markle’s half-sister rants on the guest list for the royal wedding.
Shortly after the release of the guest list to the royal wedding, and speculations about who might be or not be invited. Meghan Markle’s older half-sister Samatha took to Twitter to rant about missing family members from the guest list.
More than 2,500 members of the public will help celebrate the big day with Meghan and Prince Harry.
But Samantha Markle is fuming that Meghan is inviting complete strangers but no one from her own family.
“Out of respect and humanitarianism, the Markles should be invited, if 2,000 complete strangers are.”
“Our uncle, brother, me, best friend of 30 years, nephews. At issue is not a matter of closeness. Family is family,” she tweets.
Samantha who has put up her famous sister’s picture on her Twitter profile picture previously tweeted: “The Markle family is looking forward to our wedding invite. No one has one yet. Still waiting.”
Some fans suggested the gold-gilded invitations may take longer to get to America
She replied: “Well everyone is making arrangements and it’s difficult to organise everything as you can imagine.”
Though Meghan’s father, Thomas, 73, will walk her down the aisle and mum Doria is expected to be there, Samatha’s rant suggests that no other family member has been invited.
