Meghan Markle's niece speaks out for the 1st time in 'Harry & Meghan' docuseries. Meghan's niece, Ashleigh Hale, said it was 'hard' to hear that Meghan and Harry didn't want her to go to their royal wedding.
In the Netflix show, which was produced by three production companies, including Harry and Meghan’s Archewell Productions, Hale explained that she's related to Meghan through her mom, Samantha Markle, who is also Meghan's half-sister.After being raised by her paternal grandparents since she was 2 years old, Hale said she saw Samantha Markle when she was 6 years old and then again around 2007.
"It started out with these long emails back and forth to each other. And then texts and calls. After a while, I think we were talking on some level, several days a week," Hale explained.The"Suits" alum and Hale grew so close that they even went on vacation together to New Orleans."I think she takes on a lot of roles for me," Hale said."There's like a sister element, there's something maternal. She's a best friend. She's kind of all the things.
Hale explained that once her mom found out that Meghan and Harry were an item, she started to tell Hale some"angry words" about Meghan, and to Hale, it seemed like Samantha Markle had"some resentment." But due to the drama that Samantha Markle was creating in the press, Meghan thought it'd be best if her half-sister and Hale didn't attend her wedding."How do we explain that this half-sister isn't invited to the wedding, but that the half-sister's daughter is?" Meghan shared."And so with Ashleigh, the guidance at the time was to not have her come to our wedding.
