Doria Ragland’s Shocking 15-Year Sentence: A Twist in the Markle Saga
In a surprising turn of events, Doria Ragland, the mother of Meghan Markle, has been sentenced to 15 years in prison due to tax evasion.
This revelation surfaced during a recent live session hosted by social media influencer Meghan Mall, who took a deep dive into Doria's past while Meghan was growing up.
The investigation relied heavily on two outdated posts from a website called News Royals, which has not seen any updates in years.
For some time now, there have been persistent whispers about Doria's circumstances, with speculation ranging from her being in prison for two to ten years.
However, the actual details have remained murky.
According to the information gleaned from those old News Royals posts, Doria and Meghan share more than just blood; they both seem to have an eye for wealthy partners and a desire to mingle with the elite.
Doria's life has had its share of ups and downs.
Once a makeup artist, she reportedly tried to forge a connection with Ed O'Neill, the well-known star from “Married With Children,” during her time on set.
It was here that she met Thomas Markle, leading to their marriage and ultimately to Meghan's birth.
Doria played a pivotal role in establishing a travel agency under Thomas's name, which she managed successfully for a while.
However, the couple's relationship hit rocky waters, resulting in a divorce that followed Thomas's sudden lottery win.
Doria was awarded sole custody of Meghan, and despite the challenges, she was able to provide a comfortable life for her daughter, taking her on numerous trips throughout her childhood.
Yet, things took a dark turn when Doria stopped paying taxes, hoping to shift the blame onto Thomas since the business was registered in his name.
The IRS eventually caught up with Doria's financial missteps, leading to her lengthy prison sentence.
Interestingly, she only served four years thanks to legal assistance from Thomas.
After her release, Thomas regained custody of Meghan, and there's a notable gap of about ten years where Doria was largely absent from Meghan's life.
The reasons for this estrangement remain unclear.
Recently, reports have emerged suggesting that Doria has moved in with Meghan and Prince Harry at their Montecito home in California.
This has stirred speculation about a potential third child for the couple, hinting at significant shifts within their family dynamics as they approach 2024.
Despite Harry's earlier claims about wanting to limit their family size due to concerns over overpopulation, the buzz around a new addition is hard to ignore.
In a related note, royal watchers have suggested that Harry and Meghan might need to step up their involvement with the royal family.
Royal expert Robert Jobson pointed out that with King Charles and Kate Middleton facing health challenges, the need for support has never been greater.
He remarked on True Royalty TV's “The Royal Beat” that the absence of Meghan and Harry, coupled with Prince Andrew stepping back, has placed an increased burden on William and Catherine.
Michael Cole, a royal correspondent, echoed these sentiments, highlighting Harry's effectiveness as a royal before his exit.
Speaking to GB News, he praised Harry's sincerity and eloquence, suggesting that now would be an opportune moment for him to lend his support to his family.
With Prince William scaling back his royal duties to care for his family during these tough times, many wonder if Harry could have filled that gap.
