Meghan Markle's half-brother has been slammed after he posted a video where he dressed up as the duchess and appeared to mock her.
Thomas Markle Jr ignited fury from fans after posting videos mocking his sister, including one where he accused Meghan of faking her pregnancies.
In the 87-minute video, posted on Wednesday, Thomas, 57, dons a wig and tiara while padding his stomach to mimic pregnancy.
"My name's Me-again Swamp-donkey Crotch," he declares in the bizarre impersonation, adding: "I was just showing off the new bump I bought used on eBay out of Montecito."
Royal commentator Jennie Bond didn't mince her words in response to the video, slamming it as a "betrayal" and "grotesque."
She told the Daily Mail: "To have your own flesh and blood lead the assault must feel like the ultimate betrayal for Meghan."
Despite not speaking to Meghan for over a decade, Thomas shamelessly capitalizes on his royal connection in the video. "If you don't like it, don't watch, right? I'm gonna be riding those coattails, baby," he says, adding: "Oh, yeah, if it wasn't for Meghan Markle I don't know what I'd be doing."
Reports suggest Thomas plans to launch merchandise, including glasses, mugs, and T-shirts, exploiting his familial ties to the Duchess.
Thomas, who resides in Grants Pass, Oregon, and works as a window fitter, is one of Meghan's two half-siblings. The other, Samantha Markle, 59, has similarly leveraged her royal connection, despite being estranged from Meghan.
Samantha has previously labeled Meghan as having "narcissistic personality disorder" and lost a defamation suit against her last month.
British politician Damian Collins has raised concerns over Thomas' videos potentially constituting harassment.
"The major social media companies must do more to combat harmful content on their platforms, including campaigns of harassment and intimidation," he said, per the New York Post.
Others took to Twitter to condemn the cruel post, writing: "Meghan Markle's estranged brother, Thomas Markle Jr., has been launching vile and abusive attacks against her on his YouTube channel. Because clearly, that's the kind of behavior we should all expect from a loving and supportive family member."
Others added: "This is way over the top. Not a fan of Harry and Meghan but her brother is obnoxious about being ignored. Let go," and: "and he wonders why she doesn’t want to know them.. jeezo, this is vile."
Regardless of the unwanted attention from her siblings, Meghan has been making her own movements by securing a lucrative deal with Netflix alongside her husband, Prince Harry.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex unveiled the news via their Archewell website, expanding their creative portfolio following the successful launch of Meghan's lifestyle brand, American Riviera Orchard.
Prince Harry's series will take viewers on an immersive journey into the realm of polo, with a spotlight on the US Open Polo Championship in Wellington, Florida.
Offering "unprecedented access to the world of professional polo," the series aims to capture the intensity surrounding the sport.
Meanwhile, Meghan will lead a series exploring lifestyle topics such as gardening and cooking, integrating with her brand, American Riviera Orchard.
These projects stem from the groundbreaking deal inked in 2020 between Archewell Productions and Netflix, reportedly valued at a staggering $100 million, as per the Daily Mail.
