The estranged controversial half-sister of Meghan Markle has taken responsibility for the "staged" paparazzi photos of her father, insisting it was for the benefit of the royal family and not a cheap grab for cash. But not everyone is convinced.
With less than a week to go before the royal wedding, Meghan Markle's father, Thomas Markle Sr, was accused of secretly collaborating with a British paparazzi photographer to stage a series of fake pictures.
The revelation sparked serious backlash, forcing Samantha Markle to take responsibility, news.com.au reported.
In a tweet, Ms Markle — who attracted headlines in the past when she announced she was planning a tell-all book called The Diary of Princess Pushy's Sister — claimed it was her idea for her father to be photographed in a series of royal wedding shoots, where he lives in Mexico.
She insisted it was all to paint her father in a "positive" light before he walks his daughter down the aisle at St George's Chapel, Windsor, this weekend.
