Meghan Markle’s family recently opened up about their feelings of abandonment as Meghan distanced herself from them after marrying Prince Harry.
The Markle family, portrayed as a close-knit and supportive unit through shared photos, expressed deep regret over the Duchess’ apparent disregard for her roots.
Despite their unwavering support throughout her life, Meghan chose to exclude them from her wedding, attended only by her mother, Doria, and a host of A-list Hollywood celebrities.
The wedding, which could have symbolized the union of two different worlds, instead highlighted the stark division between Meghan and her family.
Notably, George Clooney himself expressed surprise at being invited and given prominent seating, while Meghan’s own relatives were left out.
The family felt out of place in Meghan’s new glamorous world, deemed too ordinary and unremarkable to be part of her circle.
In a recent show, members of the Markle family revealed that Meghan has completely disregarded their existence, despite their efforts to reach out and be a part of her life.
Some relatives, known for their musical talents, even planned to serenade the couple at their wedding but were met with rejection.
While the Kingdom Choir performed at the royal wedding, Meghan’s own family members were left feeling neglected and unappreciated.
Despite their disappointment, the Markle family continues to speak highly of Meghan, showcasing their unwavering support and admiration for the Duchess.
However, not all interactions have been positive, with Meghan’s aunt criticizing her for failing to offer condolences following the passing of her uncle, Joseph Johnson.
His widow, Pam, expressed sadness over the lack of communication from Meghan, highlighting the emotional toll it has taken on the family.
While Meghan has been busy with her royal duties, her absence from her family’s lives has left a void, particularly for elderly relatives who long to connect with her.
Pam lamented the lack of contact from Meghan, emphasizing the hurt caused by the silence from the Duchess.
The family’s desire to reunite and share in Meghan’s joyous occasions has been overshadowed by her preference for high-profile events with celebrity friends.
During Meghan’s extravagant baby shower in New York, her family was notably absent, replaced by a star-studded guest list that included Serena Williams and Amal Clooney.
Held at the luxurious Mark Hotel, the event exuded opulence, with a $75,000-a-night penthouse suite rented by Serena Williams for the occasion.
Close friends like Jessica Mulroney and Abigail Spencer joined in the celebration, underscoring Meghan’s strong bond with her inner circle.
Gayle King and Misha Nonoo also made appearances at the lavish affair, showcasing the elite company Meghan surrounds herself with.
The stark contrast between Meghan’s high-profile events and her estranged family’s longing for connection highlights the complexities of her dual worlds.
