Markel didn't even hire an attorney and the case was uncontested. She waived her right to receive spousal support.
As RadarOnline.com reported, insiders have claimed Markle and Prince Harry have been secretly dating for the past couple of months.
But her own sister, Samantha Grant, said the relationship isn't likely to last.
Grant claimed to have raised Meghan for 12 years growing up in California. Now wheelchair-bound and living in Florida, Grant, 51, slammed, "The royal family would be appalled by what she's done to her own family. The truth would kill her relationship with Prince Harry. He wouldn't want to date her anymore because it puts her in a bad public light."
"I certainly don't think Harry or his family would want to associate with her afterwards," slammed Grant.
