Meghan Markle’s(pictured0 family have handed over “home truths and secret tapes” in a tell-all documentary of dirty laundry to be aired just days before King Charles III’s Coronation.
Billed as t world excusive, and the family;s “last ever” interview and promising to reveal “Meghan Markle as you’ve never seen her before”, the documentary is due to premier on Australia’s Channel 7 on Sunday.
Meghan’s father, sister and brother will speak to Channel 7’s Taylor Auerbach to share unseen family videos and “an extraordinary message”.
Announcing the interview on Twitter, Taylor wrote: “WORLD EXCLUSIVE: This Sunday on @7NewsSpotlight – Meghan Markle as you’ve never seen her before.
“For the first time, the Markles unite with an extraordinary message on the eve King Charles III’s coronation. These hidden tapes will stun the world! Only on @Channel7.”
“The world has never seen Meghan like this, the homecoming queen,” a voiceover said as a video played of Meghan being driven around in a convertible wearing a tiara and prom dress.
The clip then cuts to a shot of journalist Taylor speaking to the Markle family, as he said: “This will be your last interview ever.”
The voiceover continued: “Treasured memories, home truths and secret tapes are all coming out.”
Speaking to the cameras, Meghan’s sister Samantha Markle claimed: “She would still be a waitress if it wasn’t for dad.”
The broadcaster also shared a trailer of the explosive interview.
Controversy
Meghan Markle, the Duchess of Sussex, has been at the centre of controversy ever since her engagement to Prince Harry was announced in 2017.
She and her husband, Prince Harry, stepped away from royal duties following tensions with the royal family. The couple alleged they had been subjected to victimisation by the Monarchy, whom they said regularly courted the tabloids at Buckingham Palace.
Her family’s latest move aimed at exposing the former U.S actress, may just be the biggest shocker yet. The hurt family will have prepared bombshells to match or exceed those executed aganst the royal family.
The news of these secret tapes will spark outrage among Meghan’s supporters, who view this as yet another attempt by her estranged family members to cash in on her fame and cause her harm. It’s worth noting that both Samantha and Thomas Markle have a history of speaking to the media about Meghan and have been known to make controversial statements in the past.
Her half sister, Samantha, lost a legal suit of defamation against Meghan Markle, in which she accused the Duchess of Sussex of lying about her during her world excusive interview with Oprah Winfrey In March 2021.

However, her many critics will view the tape as perfect revenge for a woman who they consider to have set out to wreck the royal family, and who allegedly had ulterior motives for marrying her husband, prince Harry.
This latest move by the Markle family comes on the heels of Meghan and Harry’s explosive interview with Oprah Winfrey earlier this year, in which they made several damning allegations about the royal family, including claims of racism and neglect.
It remains to be seen what exactly the secret tapes contain and whether they will live up to the hype. The fact that they will be shown on television and not released to the press suggests that the Markle family may be hoping to gain more control over the narrative and make a significant impact on public opinion. The press will definitely jump on every interesting and meaningful detail that emerges from the documentary, as the family grudge continues to boil over,
Regardless of the contents of the tapes, this latest development highlights the ongoing drama surrounding Meghan’s relationship with her family and the intense scrutiny that she continues to face as a public figure. It reveals another dynamic of the tension between Meghan Markle and her husband Prince Harry, with the rest of the royal family.
As Meghan and Harry continue to forge their own path outside of the royal family, it remains to be seen how this latest controversy will impact their lives and their ongoing efforts to promote social justice and positive change in the world.
Critics of Meghan Markle have described a lot of her pubic engagements as contrived and hypocritical , especially because of her ongoing estrangement with her father who paid for her acting lessons but has been denied any access to his grandchildren.
The Duchess of Sussex appears to have cut off her father because he spoke to the press about her without prior permission, but her father, Thomas Markle, has always maintained he did so out of desperation because she was distancing him.
The attack from the family could be devastating , depending on what becomes known.
Taylor Auerbach, journalist and Channel 7 producer, assured audiences that “these hidden tapes will stun the world!” and hinted that the Markles had “an extraordinary message on the eve King Charles III’s Coronation”.
In the teaser trailer posted to twitter, Meghan’s father, sister and brother are interviewed and the video ends with a mysterious promise of the “biggest Prince Andrew bombshell yet”.
In the video, Meghan’s brother, Thomas Markle Jr, says sternly: “We’re not going to go away. This is going to change everything.”
Meghan’s sister Samantha Markle claims: “She would still be a waitress if it wasn’t for dad”.
Speaking about Meghan’s marriage to Prince Harry, Samantha weighs in: “They’re really unhealthy for each other. It’s a toxic relationship.”
And in what is described as a “death-bed plea”, Meghan’s father Thomas Markle asks Meghan: “How can I fix this?”

His plea will likely stir up more negative feelings against the Duchess, who will find herself in the most difficult position, as reconciliation after this major attack will be very difficult for her, after leaving in this long.
