Meghan Markle's brother Thomas Jr says he told Prince Harry 'shallow' sister will 'ruin his life' in Big Brother preview
MEGHAN Markle's brother said he warned Prince Harry his "shallow" sister will "ruin your life" in an explosive preview for Big Brother VIP.
Thomas Markle Jr, the Duchess of Sussex's estranged half-brother, is already stirring up trouble ahead of his entrance to the star-studded Australian reality show.
In the dramatic teaser ahead of Sunday night's launch, the 55-year-old boasts: "I'm Meghan Markle's brother, I'm the biggest brother of them all."
He continues his introduction with another shocking statement, claiming: "I told Prince Harry, I think she's going to ruin your life. She's very shallow."
Meghan is bracing for fresh embarrassment and controversy as her outspoken older brother heads in the Aussie version of Celebrity Big Brother.
Thomas was arrested on January 12, 2017, in Oregon for allegedly holding a gun to a woman's head during a drunken argument.
FAMILY FEUD
Meg already has a strained relationship with her dad, Thomas Markle Sr, and step-brother, stemming from her wedding to Prince Harry in May 2018.
Thomas Jr was snubbed from the ceremony and at the time said he hadn't seen his sister for around seven years.
He previously spoke out about being missed off the invite list – despite having implored Prince Harry to call off the ceremony as Meghan "is obviously not the right woman for you".
The father-of-two said: "I’m not bitter, just baffled. It’s hurtful given how close we once were.

"I’m confused and a little distraught because here is a person knowing the position she’s in and knowing the scrutiny she’s under and yet she has forgotten her flesh and blood."
The window fitter has previously hit out at Meg in the press, dubbing her a "phony", a bully, and a "jaded, shallow, conceited woman."
Thomas Jr also criticised Meghan for cutting off their dad after he admitted he was paid to pose for paparazzi pictures sold to news outlets worldwide.
The 76-year-old was meant to walk her down the aisle but initially pulled out, before stating his desire to attend but eventually conceded he could not make it due to heart surgery.
Thomas Jr is joining Caitlyn Jenner, former Trump advisor Manigault Newman, Married At First Sight Star Jessika Power, and Kyle Sandilands' model ex Imogen Anthony in Big Brother VIP.
Among the other contestants going in is Australian Survivor star Luke Toki and former football players Matt Cooper and Dayne Beams.
Bernard Curry, model Ellie Gonsalves, influencer Josh Carroll and 2021 Big Brother Australia star Daniel Hayes are also on the line-up.
Controversial commentator Katie Hopkins, 46, was deported ahead of the show after threatening to break quarantine rules.
