Meghan Markle’s Family Left Disheartened as She Disconnects from Them
Meghan Markle's family recently opened up about their feelings of regret and disappointment after the Duchess completely cut off contact with them following her marriage to Prince Harry.
Through the photos they shared, it is evident that the Markle family has always been warm and supportive towards each other, with uncles and aunts offering their utmost help throughout Meghan's life.
However, since becoming a royal, Meghan has distanced herself from her family.
During her wedding, only her mother, Doria, was present, while the rest of the guests consisted of A-list Hollywood celebrities.
This missed opportunity could have showcased the merging of two different worlds, but instead, Meghan chose to exclude her family and invite famous faces she had never even met.
Even George Clooney expressed surprise at receiving an invitation and being given prominent seats at the wedding.
Meghan's family simply did not fit the image she had in mind for her special day.
They were deemed too ordinary and normal to be included.
In a recent show, Markle's family confirmed that Meghan completely ignores their existence.
Some relatives even possess a natural talent for singing and had hoped to travel to England to perform at Meghan and Harry's wedding.
They had even booked their tickets, but the Duchess continued to reject their requests.
It was believed that Harry and Meghan had invited the Kingdom Choir to perform, which famously sang a rendition of Benny King's “Stand By Me” at their wedding ceremony in St George's Chapel, Windsor.
Despite their disappointment, Meghan's family still praises the Duchess.
One cousin, Dorothy, shared a never-before-seen picture of Meghan's fourth great-grandparents on their wedding day in 1869.
However, Markle's aunt criticized Meghan for not reaching out with words of condolence almost two years after her uncle's passing.
Joseph Johnson, aged 72, passed away after a battle with congestive heart failure.
His widow, Pam, aged 68, expressed her family's sadness over the lack of contact from Meghan since his death.
Pam said, “I understand that Meghan has a lot going on with her royal status, but it still hurts not to have heard from her.
Moreover, these poor old people are also saddened because they have never seen their grandchildren.”
While Meghan did travel to the United States for her lavish baby shower in New York, she chose not to invite any relatives.
The event took place at the luxurious Mark Hotel, featuring a penthouse suite that costs $75,000 per night, rented by Serena Williams for the occasion.
The tennis star co-hosted the grand affair with Meghan's longtime friend, Amal Clooney.
Among the handful of close friends attending were her stylist and confidante, Jessica Mulroney, and Abigail Spencer, who was spotted with Meghan throughout the week.
