Meghan Markle faces new family crisis as sister Samantha reveals she’s writing two new books

As Meghan Markle prepares for the royal baby, her sister Samantha has revealed she has a very particular strategy to spoil the party.

Is Meghan Markle a miserable royal?

In yet another family crisis for the Duchess of Sussex, Samantha Markle has announced she will be releasing two more books about her.

According to The Sun, the shocking move comes as the latest drama initiated by Meghan’s half-sister, who announced in November she would be releasing a tell-all book to coincide with the birth of the royal baby in April.

The 54-year-old has made numerous attempts to tarnish the former actress’s reputation, branding her “Princess Pushy” and publicly calling her a social climber.

Her most recent endeavour to capitalise on her sister’s status was announced on her private Twitter page.

She wrote: “I couldn’t help but let it slip! There are actually two books coming out! In The Shadows Of The Duchess I and II.”

Her first book was initially titled The Diary of Princess Pushy’s Sister and was later renamed A Tale of Two Sisters — but it now appears to be called In the Shadows of the Duchess, and will be followed by a second book of the same title.

NOT HOLDING BACK

Markle plans to hijack the royal birth in April saying she’s “not holding back”.

The wheelchair-bound American has claimed in the past the book would be a “sociological journey” and says it “covers everything”.

She added: “the world does not know truth total truth … (I’m) holding nothing back!

“From lullabies to lies. it’s all they’re in my book.

“The book covers everything that goes on behind the scenes that the world does not know and trust me there is a lot.”

ANOTHER FAMILY CRISIS FOR THE DUCHESS

Markle has stopped at nothing to humiliate her half-sister, even travelling all the way to the UK from the US to confront her and take part in television interviews slamming her behaviour.

The announcement of yet another book is just the latest family drama inflicted upon the former Suits star.

Markle previously made claims Meghan didn’t call her father at Christmas or the previous year, before she was even married to Prince Harry.

Meghan’s father Thomas Markle Snr was not able to attend her royal wedding last May after he embarrassingly staged paparazzi photos.

A royal expert has said Meghan’s “tacky” family brought disrepute on the royal family, and even likened them to the Jerry Springer Show.

Her brother Thomas Jnr has also been a source of stress for royal PR as he and his fiance have both been arrested and accused each other of domestic abuse.

Kensington Palace has yet to comment on the announcement.
