Samantha Markle Accused of Pushing Fake Pregnancy Rumors about Meghan Markle
According to a recent BuzzFeed News report, Samantha Markle, the half-sister of Meghan Markle, has allegedly been pushing a bizarre conspiracy theory that her famous sibling faked her two pregnancies.
The report shared screenshots of since-deleted tweets from one of Samantha's accounts, in which she allegedly joined others in pushing the fake pregnancy narrative.
BuzzFeed claims that the tweets suggest Samantha has been coordinating information with an influential anti-Meghan YouTube account and with other critics of Meghan and her husband, Prince Harry.
The report asserts that Samantha Markle has become Meghan's biggest troll, after having long accused her of social-climbing her way into the British monarchy and turning her back on her American family, including their father Thomas Markle.
The report also focuses on the ways that Samantha Markle, 57, allegedly has become one of the more active online propagators of fake pregnancy rumors, while she has avoided making these claims in mainstream media interviews.
The Meghan pregnancy truthers in fact are pretty busy online and are among the more outspoken of conspiracists who traffic in a certain kind of celebrity gossip, pushing fake pregnancy theories about famous women.

The Meghan truthers assert that her children, Archie, almost three, and Lilibet, nine months, were conceived by in vitro fertilization and born via surrogate.
Some have gone so far to say that there may be no Archie or Lilibet at all, accusing the Sussexes of using lifelike baby dolls during rare public appearances with their children.
Samantha Markle allegedly tweeted from her at the Markle Sammy account in June, 2021, a screenshot shows: “I think it should be mandatory that proof of delivery from my sister's womb be provided if any of the children are to have a title and Archie should not have a title because I believe a surrogate was involved.”
In this screenshot, the account's username is Trump is America's President.
However, the false pregnancy tweets may have prompted Twitter to suspend the at the Markle Sammy account Monday.
Twitter didn't specify why the account was suspended, but the platform said it takes action against users who engage in the targeted harassment of someone.
Meanwhile, the Daily Mail reported that the account was banned three years after Samantha Markle's first account, at Sammy Markle, was suspended.
It's not yet known what, if any, impact the BuzzFeed News report will have on Samantha Markle's defamation lawsuit, but her lawyer, Douglas Kael, told that his client's email and other accounts may have been hacked.
He also suggested that unspecified statements attributed to her were made by third parties to defame her.
Kael furthermore told Newsweek Monday that some of the Twitter screenshots that appeared in BuzzFeed may have been altered or photoshopped.
Due to the urgency of this matter, we are still investigating, he added.
Royal fans and pro-Monarchy journalists are criticizing Twitter's decision to ban Samantha.
Commenting on the reports, Daily Mail journalist Richard Eden wrote, has Prince Harry been emailing at Twitter boss Jack Dorsey again?
Meanwhile, a body language expert unpacks Samantha Markle's lawsuit against Meghan Markle.
Jesus Enrique Rosas shared the significance of Samantha formally contesting Meghan's claims in the lawsuit.
In the absence of evidence, Rosas said it's a solid strategy to avoid reacting to rumors.
But in Meghan's case, not reacting will be all the more difficult since we now have dozens of photos that prove that she was not struggling.
And yes, she had quite a relationship with her sister Samantha, he explained.
Rosas further advised that Meghan could have made her background clear from the beginning.
According to the expert, she even could have been vague in the details of her upbringing.
But this is something that no one can say for sure.
