Cape Town - Samantha Grant is at it again!

This time the 53-year-old has spoken to The Sun, vehemently denying that her half-sister, Meghan, Duchess of Sussex (37), will be paying their dad, Thomas Markle, a visit during an upcoming trip to the US.

“I speak to him every day and it’s sad but, no, they haven’t contacted him,” said the former actress and model, who might soon appear on UK Celebrity Big Brother.

“There’s no meeting planned, that’s PR spin. The PR machines can stop trying to make out she’s making an effort – she isn’t,” she added.

Samantha – who in an interview with Good Morning Britain admitted she hasn’t spoken to Meghan since 2015 – has been a fierce critic of her half-sister since Meghan’s engagement to Britain’s Prince Harry (33).

On the former actress’ birthday on Saturday, 4 August Samantha once again took to Twitter to berate her, Daily Mail reports

In one tweet she snidely wished Meghan a happy birthday and asked that she please send their dad a belated card for his 74th birthday that took place on 18 July.

Meghan celebrated her first birthday as a member of the British royal family while attending Prince Harry's best's friends's wedding.

The royal family's official Instagram page shared a sweet picture of Meghan and the queen, captioned: “Happy Birthday to HRH the Duchess of Sussex! #HappyBirthdayHRH”


This isn’t the first time Samantha has taken to Twitter to vent about her half-sister.

After a recent article in Elle reported that Meghan and Harry would be taking a break from being in the public eye, Samantha took to social media with yet another fiery response.

“Okay so Cruella de Ville is retreating, LOL . . . Let me know how that works out for you,” she tweeted
