Now that Prince Harry and actress Meghan Markle are engaged to be married, the fiancée is allowed to invite family members, including her extended ones to her highly-anticipated wedding.

The future Royal Family member has extended family from her father's side. She has two half-siblings from her dad's first marriage namely Thomas Jr. and Samantha. The half-brother himself is also newly-engaged to Darlene Blount and even sent out a wedding invitation to Meghan and Prince Harry to attend their ceremony. Prior to their engagement, Thomas Jr. interestingly got arrested after pointing a gun at Blount after an argument. However, this did not stop their relationship from developing.

Meghan's half-sister Samantha is the one who is at odds with her apparently. She called the future princess a "shallow social climber" and said that if the truth came out about how Meghan allegedly treated her family, it would destroy her relationship with Prince Harry. Samantha is currently writing a book tentatively titled "The Diary of Princess Pushy's Sister."

Meghan comes from a mixed marriage where her mother Doria Ragland is African-American and her father Thomas is Caucasian. The future princess is closer to her mother who started out as a make-up artist but is now a social worker many years later. Her father works as a lighting director in Hollywood and still continues to do so today, being part of the crew of the drama "General Hospital."

The two met many years ago on a Hollywood set and were immediately smitten with each other. They soon got married and had their first child, Meghan. However, when she turned six years old, the parents divorced. Nevertheless, they both still loved Meghan very much and supported her in her endeavors.

Nevertheless, it remains to be seen who among Meghan's many family members will be invited to the upcoming Royal wedding.
