there was no public information suggesting that Meghan Markle's half brother, Thomas Markle Jr. (Tom Markle), made the statement about his ex step-mother Doria Ragland's family. However, I can provide some context about Meghan Markle's family and the situation surrounding her wedding in 2018.
Meghan Markle's parents are Thomas Markle Sr. and Doria Ragland. They divorced when Meghan was young, and she has two half-siblings from her father's previous marriage: Samantha Grant (previously known as Samantha Markle) and Thomas Markle Jr.
In the lead-up to Meghan's wedding to Prince Harry in May 2018, there was significant media attention surrounding her family. Several members of Meghan's extended family, including her half-siblings, made public statements and gave interviews to the media, which sometimes included negative or controversial remarks about Meghan.
Thomas Markle Sr., Meghan's father, was initially set to walk her down the aisle at the wedding. However, he faced health issues and ultimately did not attend the wedding. This decision led to further media scrutiny and speculation.
Regarding the absence of other family members, it is unclear why some of Meghan's extended family members did not attend the wedding. Royal weddings often have limited guest lists due to protocol and security concerns, and the decision on who is invited ultimately lies with the couple and the royal family.
I recommend checking more recent and reliable sources for the latest developments regarding Meghan Markle's family or any updates related to the 2018 wedding.
