Samantha Markle, the half-sister of Meghan Markle, is hospitalized after possibly breaking her ankle and fracturing her knee in what her boyfriend is calling a "paparazzi confrontation." This comes after Samantha got called out by several media sources for setting up a faked photo shoot for her father and speaking ill of her sister to the press ahead of the royal wedding on Saturday.
Samantha's boyfriend Mark told TMZ that the two were driving in Florida when he said that they were being confronted by paparazzi. Mark said he tried to avoid the photographer and hit a concrete barrier accidentally. He explains that Samantha hit the windshield and then the floor of the car. Due to her MS, Samantha Markle was unable to climb back onto the seat of the car.
Mark explains that he drove Samantha to the hospital where she is being treated for an ankle and knee injury. When asked about what happened to the photographer, he said the person got away.
Meghan Markle's father, Thomas Markle, is also hospitalized after undergoing heart surgery after suffering a heart attack last week. The bride's father will be unable to attend the royal wedding where he was supposed to walk Meghan down the aisle.
