In a follow-up interview on CBS This Morning, in which more previously unseen clips were aired, Meghan spoke about feeling "betrayed" by her father Thomas Markle after he staged paparazzi photos around the time of the royal wedding. She said: "When I asked him, he said, 'No, absolutely not [that he hadn't been talking to the tabloids]. I said, I just need you to tell me and if you tell me the truth we can help. And he wasn't able to do that.

Speaking about her half-sister Samantha Markle, she added: "I grew up as an only child and I wished I had siblings… the last time I saw her must have been 18, 19 years ago, and before that, ten years before that. She changed her last name back to Markle only when I started dating Harry, so I think that says enough."
