You have embarrassing relatives, and then you have relatives that are placed on police ‘fixated persons’ watch lists and Meghan Markle’s controversial half-sister, Samantha Markle is reportedly the latter.
According to the Times, a source from Scotland Yard (the colloquial term for UK’s Metropolitan Police Service) says this decision was made due to her potential to cause “major embarrassment for the royals“.
“Someone like Samantha presents a risk rather than a threat. She is not committing criminal offences, but she is causing concerns for the royal family,” they said.
“There is big potential for some major embarrassment for the royals. Samantha could make a scene and create headlines with her actions — and let’s face it, she’s kind of already done that.”
In more Markle family drama, Meghan Markle’s father, Thomas Markle, says she has “ghosted” him.
However, while the 53-year-old’s public criticisms of the Duchess of Sussex are well-documented, it should be noted that Scotland Yard have already more or less denied the assertion.

Clearly this woman is eaten up with jealously . did she have a relationship with the Duchess before she married into the Royal Family ? was she so close to her then ? i think not.clearly her and her father have issuses . i have no doubt judging from their previous behavior they will secretly record and tape her if she were to talk to them. she and her father ought to be ashamed of themselves. you created this situation. so deal with it .
Some of us can relate to this woman's behavior since most families have one.
A pesky relative that is.
The fact that this stuff is played out on the public stage makes it of interest to some of us.
How does Meghan Markle (or the royal family ) deal with an individual who seems intent on using her new fame to make a few thousand extra bucks ?
At what point do they demand a "cease & desist " order when she claims to have a moral high-ground ?
She wants money - that's pretty clear.
Maybe it's a simple matter of paying that whole family off ( which is morally repugnant ) even though they've seemed to resent Meghan's very existence from the beginning.
Maybe the royals will have to invite her father into the fold and impress on him how much is at stake.
Security is one major issue that seems to be lost on those people.
It's not lost on "would-be" terrorists though.
