The Duchess of Sussex, Meghan Markle, has come under scrutiny as her half-sister, Samantha Markle, reveals shocking details about her education.
In a recent speech, Meghan spoke about the challenges of paying for university, claiming she relied on scholarships and financial aid programs.
However, Samantha Markle quickly took to Twitter, branding her sister a liar and revealing that their father, Thomas Markle, actually paid for Meghan’s education.
Samantha, 53, wasted no time in calling out Meghan’s alleged deception.
She pointed out that Meghan only finished primary school recently, making it highly unlikely that she holds a university degree.
Samantha labeled Meghan’s claim of attending college as nonsense, emphasizing that no one knows what her college life was like.
Meghan, 37, gave her first speech as a member of the royal family at the University of the South Pacific Suba Campus in Fiji.
She spoke about the difficulties of funding further education and how she managed to attend university through scholarships, financial aid programs, and working on campus.
However, Samantha insists that their father, Thomas Markle, 74, paid for Meghan’s tuition, contradicting Meghan’s narrative.
Thomas Markle, a retired Emmy Award-winning lighting director, claims to have funded Meghan’s education, as well as her expensive holidays abroad.
He described himself as a proud man who never asked his daughter for financial support, despite suffering setbacks and losing most of his lottery winnings in a bad business deal.
Meghan, however, painted a different picture in her speech, expressing her personal pride and excitement as a university graduate.
She emphasized the importance of affordable education for everyone, especially women and girls in developing countries.
Meghan believes that providing access to education is crucial for economic and social development.
This revelation comes amidst ongoing tension between Meghan and her half-sister, Samantha Markle.
In Netflix’s Harry and Meghan docuseries, Meghan accused Samantha of fabricating their relationship for personal gain.
The Duchess has recently launched her own Netflix docuseries, while Prince Harry has announced a memoir.
In the documentary, Meghan’s niece, Alicia Hale, also makes an appearance and shares her close bond with Meghan.
However, this relationship allegedly soured after Buckingham Palace advised Meghan to uninvite Hale from her wedding.
Samantha Markle, the older paternal half-sister of the Duchess of Sussex, has been vocal about her family’s dynamics and has often criticized Meghan in the media.
She is the daughter of Thomas Markle Sr. and Rosalind Markle.
The claims made by Samantha Markle have sparked a heated debate about Meghan’s education and the credibility of her statements.
As the public awaits further clarification, it remains to be seen how this revelation will impact Meghan’s reputation and her relationship with her family.
