A whole week of drama galore threatened to end the royal wedding in a complete scandal, but Windsor has had a fair share of disreputable trials, and boy did they help their latest addition Meghan to sail through it. Let’s unveil them one by one;
A Bad dad joke
First came the news that Thomas Markle Sr had never met Harry but had only talked to him on phone. This raised suspicious eyebrows and then came more disturbing news that he had not been invited to the wedding! In a nasty handwritten letter to Prince Harry from her half-brother, disturbing details were laid to table about how the old man was not invited to the wedding. However, the palace released a statement confirming that Thomas would walk his daughter down the aisle. Then Things fell apart last week when it was revealed that Thomas had been working with the paparazzi to stage photos of himself with the hope of improving his public image. This didn’t go well with the palace since they’d chastised the media for badgering him. On Thursday, Meghan finally stepped in to announce that her father needed space to focus on his health and wouldn’t be attending the wedding. What a blow!
Evil step sister
From the looks of things, no one wants a sister like Samantha; from earlier on in Harry and Meghan’s relationship, she reportedly was writing a tell-all memoir entitled, “Diary of Princess Pushy’s sister.” What a sad joke. After which she went ahead to call Meghan a “shallow social climber.” The two hadn’t talked in years and Samantha proved to us why; she’s got a ghastly attitude. Samantha then went ahead to set up her father with paparazzi to stage his pictures. It’s a little wonder Piers Morgan called her a “little vulture” when she appeared on his show in a futile attempted to clear her name.
The nasty letter
Thomas Jr, Meghan’s half-brother decided to chime in and cash on the hatred after he was left out of the guest list. Only he went a step further by writing a cruel letter to Prince Harry in which he refered to his sister as a “Jaded, shallow, conceited woman that will make a joke of you and the royal family.” Oh Lawd! But his regret came swift in a follow up letter in which he begged Meghan for a wedding Invitation. Meanwhile his ex-wife Tracy and their sons flew to London despite not being invited…talk about bad sour-grapers.
Colored mother of the bride.
There are people that thought Meghan simply wasn’t “white enough” and the arrival of Doria Ragland, a social worker, yoga instructor and mother of the bride proved why. Oh yes, she’s black and we love it! When Harry met her, he proclaimed her amazing. However, it’s her recent move to quit her jobs that got tongues wagging, could she be going to London permanently?
A shady TV show?
Meghan’s ex-husband Trevor Engelson then started shopping around for a fictional TV comedy with the description, “Divorce is hard, sharing custody is harder, sharing custody with the British royal family when your ex marries a price is impossible..” This was to play off the idea of what could have happened if he and Meghan had had kids…Sour, right? However he was persuaded by Meghan and some mutual friends to dump the idea.
Harry’s exes are invited to the wedding
Cressida Bonas and Chelsy Davy with whom are on good terms were sent invites to attend the wedding. Meghan might have been cool with it, but trust the rest of us to cast them side-eye glances.
The Duchess of York gets an invite
Estranged royal Lady Sarah Ferguson, the ex-wife to the Duke of York (Harry’s uncle) and producer of TV series “Royals” got an invite to the wedding and she showed up unescorted wearing one glove! Being that one royal that’s always snubbed, it was kinda nice seeing her there but she pulled some shady moves.
