Samantha Markle has held nothing back over the last few months as she unleashes angry tirades at everyone from her half-sister Meghan to her new brother-in-law Prince Harry. But now she’s turned her attention to the Duchess of Sussex’ mother Doria Ragland in a vicious Twitter rant.

Just days after appearing on British TV to publicly apologise to Meghan for her past comments, 53-year-old Samantha has reportedly now launched a fresh attack on the new royal – by targeting her devoted single mum.

According to the Mail Online, Samantha posted a series of tweets in response to some of her followers, claiming Doria “wasn’t around much” while Meghan was in her early teenage years. Instead, Samantha claimed her father largely raised Meghan on his own – and has subsequently been treated unfairly.

Replying to a tweet that praised Doria and Meghan, Samantha reportedly wrote: “Glad you love people you don’t even know. But everything that you think you know from tabloids is a lie. Dad pretty much raised her most of her life on his own and Doria was not around very much.”

She went on to call their father Thomas the “best father in the world” before reportedly adding: “The world does not know that our dad raised her most of the time without the input of her mother especially from age 12 through high school and he gave her everything she had and is.

“She was never raised as an only child. Truth kids! He is amazing and successful. And Mags lie.”

Thomas famously missed Meghan and Harry’s wedding earlier this year. He pulled out from walking her down the aisle at the last minute after suffering a heart attack just days before.

Instead, Doria was Meghan’s main support and represented her whole family on the big day, having been welcomed with open arms by both Harry and the Queen.

While Samantha’s latest comments were mainly aimed at Doria herself, she is claimed to have also made a fresh jab at Meghan too on the social media site – accusing her half-sister of “ghosting” the whole family, essentially meaning she has completely shut them out.

“She has ghosted both sides of the family she needs to earn our trust it is the other way around. You don’t crap on an entire family and then run around crying that you cannot trust everyone,” Samantha allegedly wrote.

She also reportedly made a fresh comment about Meghan allegedly ‘ignoring’ her father following his health issues, adding: “She ignored my father through a heart attack there is no excuse for it. You would be mentally ill to think that is OK. Maybe you were the one who needs the counselling.”

It was in sharp contradiction to Samantha’s comments earlier this week when she appeared on the Jeremy Vine show to apologise to Meghan.

The British host asked Samantha why she had been insulting to Meghan, having called her Cruella de Vil, Duch-ass and the Duchess of Nonsense.

“[My father] was being purposely ignored. We were hoping that private channels would be used,” she explained. “When they failed we went public.”

Vine then accused Samantha if she had wanted to “shame” her half-sister after not being invited to the royal wedding. However, Samantha insisted she was protecting her family, adding: “The public were making a mockery of the family and it had to stop. Perhaps I was frustrated. I was lashing out more at the media.”

She then apologised to Meghan and the royal family, before praising Prince Harry. “To my sister, absolutely, and to Harry as well and the royal family. He is such a gentleman and so savvy and I would say that she (Meghan) has found her prince.”
