Meghan Markle’s Sister Samantha Markle Turned Away by Palace Security: Reports
Samantha, 53, has reportedly not spoken to Meghan in years and months ago. Started slamming her on social media over the duchess’ more recent estrangement from their father, Thomas Markle. Neither of them had attended the former actress’ royal wedding to Prince Harry in May.
Samantha arrived in London more than a week ago in a bid to “get a message” to Meghan, 37. On Saturday, she traveled to Kensington Palace, where her sister and Harry and other royals live. Samantha, who suffers from multiple sclerosis, was pushed by her partner in a wheelchair through an open gate. British news outlets reported that she got into a verbal “stand-off” with an officer guarding a security checkpoint and was turned away.
Photos show Samantha’s partner handing a letter to the guard and then pushing her back towards the entrance.
“Everybody would love to know what’s in that letter,” Samantha tweeted on Sunday.”This was a huge move on the part of Meghan’s sister to try to see her face to face and the fact she was turned away speaks volumes,” a source told The Mirror. “This is the closest Meghan has come physically to that side of her family. Since she married into the royal family but palace staff had clearly been instructed not to allow her access.”
Samantha was later photographed holding masks bearing Meghan and Harry’s faces, which she bought at a souvenir stand.
