Meghan Markle’s former sister Samantha does not have much faith in the marriage between the Duchess of Sussex and Prince Harry.
Samantha has been speaking openly about her half-sister in recent years, recently speaking out – and providing evidence – against Markle’s allegations of vast distance between the two, during the former American actress’s interview with Oprah Winfrey.
Now, 56-year-old Samantha weighed in on the royal wedding.
“I see it ending in divorce, unless they receive extensive advice and can agree to work to be honest, to apologize to everyone they’ve harmed in the course of this two-year-old Chinese bowl-in-a-shop speech,” Samantha told TMZ. “Nothing about any of this was honest.”
Harry and Markle’s representatives did not immediately respond to Fox News’s request for comment.
MEGHAN MARKLE SAYS THAT THE STRANGERED FATHER IS NOT TRUE
During Winfrey’s interview, the Duchess of Sussex, 39, stated that she had not seen her sister in almost two decades, although Samantha provided the Inside Edition with evidence that they spent time together in 2008.

Samantha also spoke with Inside Edition about Markle’s claim that she only reused the name “Markle” after Meghan started dating Harry, sharing a petition to change her name to “Markle” dated 1997 and her college degree, which says “Markle”.
“The damage to royalty has been enormous, especially now,” Samantha told TMZ, adding that Harry, 36, “must be” questioning his marriage “if he has a functioning frontal lobe”.
“Come on, he’s not 12 years old. He was in the army, he has to have a sense of, ‘Oh my God, everything you told me was a lie,’ ”she continued. “What man would be happy to be comfortable like that? And the minute I believe he starts to disagree or walk away from her, I think it can be unpleasant, unless there is a really good lawyer, they have really good counselors. No I know what it will take. “

Samantha also talked about the strained relationship between the Duchess of Sussex and her father, Thomas Markle, who split up at the time of their wedding, when he staged a photo shoot for paparazzi.
To fix this relationship, Samantha feels that Meghan “would have to apologize”.

“A public apology, I know, would be like drawing blood from a stone, but it caused a lot of public damage with its dishonesty and its manipulation, domination and control,” explained Samantha. “I really feel that this thing has been so orchestrated that it needs to unravel the damage. It caused a lot of damage to a man who gave him an incredible life.”
