Meghan Markle's relative talks family divide: 'We won't ever talk again'
Fox News ^ | 9 June 2021 | Melissa Roberto

Meghan Markle became physically closer to her family members when she and Prince Harry moved to California last year, but that doesn't mean there's room for reconciliation – so says a family source.

In 2020, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex stunned fans and their own families with their decision to step back as senior working members of the British royal family and move to North America to pursue independent work. It's been almost a year since the couple settled down at a property in Montecito, Calif., located in Santa Barbara County.

Although Markle once again lives on the same coast as many of her family members, a relative of Markle's who wishes to remain anonymous balked at the idea of a potential play date amongst kids in the family upon the arrival of the Sussexes' second child, daughter Lilibet Diana.

"Yeah, right after I set up a play date with Oprah Winfrey's family, too?" the family source joked. "We're clearly in different social classes and we won't ever talk again."

The family source went on to acknowledge the family divide between Markle and the extended relatives she's long avoided in the media after her strained relationship with her father, Thomas Markle, became public. The new mother of two has made it clear she believes she's now above her family and where she came from, pressed the source.

That’s good! If you remember the trailer park comment made by James Carville about Paula Jones, this Markle is what you get with $20 bait.

He actually served. People forget who he was before he met the Manipulator.

Her childhood friend said her goal was to become a princess on day. That goal was reached but she soon lost the title.

Unfortunately, we can’t pick our family.

My wife follows this for fun on all sorts of Brit sites. She says that the Queen had asked family members not to use her nickname Lilibet as it was Phillip’s favorite. I hope she cuts them to the core. Lilibet Diana Montbatten-Windsor indeed.

A party boy hopped up on drugs.

There’s a reason why no self respecting British gal never snagged him.

I don’t think this is honor the queen. After all the shit she stirred up about the royal family, it wouldn’t surprise me if this was to hurt the queen because her husband just passed away.

Not everyone who served is a good person. He’s still a Nazi. And her family may be annoying, but his is evil.

He was trying for the A list in the entertainment/celebrity world too, but they all gave him a hard pass. All he could get to marry him was the Z list grifter.

Should anyone be surprised that she destroyed Harry's as well?

I suspect they will eventually separate and Harry will move back to the castle basement.

With the rift in the royal family, they want to pander to the Queen.

They are NOT pandering, they are purposefully hurting her. The Queen was only called Lilibet by her sister and husband (and maybe 1 or 2 other deceased immediate family members). Months ago, the Queen asked that when Philip died, that she not hear that name again. They, BOTH of them, did this to hurt her.

They aren’t making assumptions. Harry in Afghanistan was mostly a PR exercise. When the heat got turned up, his bodyguards protected him.
