Prince Harry's girlfriend wrote the inspiring piece for TIME magazine after a recent trip to India and was praised for bringing the subject to light.
Tennis star Serena Williams took to the social media site to share the essay and commend Meghan's work.
She wrote: "So proud of my girl @meghanmarkle writing this inspiring piece. You continue to inspire me everyday."
Her praise provoked a response from Samantha who shared the tweet with her 1,349 followers on her account and slammed: "But what did she donate to them to make real change come about? Money for toilets, maxi pads, or just a photo op?"

She later retweeted a news article which claimed "Meghan Markle can help Prince Harry continue to build on Princess Diana's legacy", before remarking: "Not possible when she ignores a sister in a wheelchair because it is an embarrassment to her."
"Diana would scoff at Meg," she continued.
Samantha later hit out at those who claimed she was jealous of her sister and her relationship with the royal.
She clarified: "Actually no… I've always been supportive of her but I can't support the illusion and lies," adding: "Enough of the illusions, she's the one with the hardened heart."
It's not the first time Samantha has lashed out at her sister. When it was confirmed that the Suits star was romantically involved with the prince, she claimed she was a "social climber".

She warned: "Her behaviour is certainly not befitting of a Royal Family member."
Samantha, who describes herself as a writer told The Sun that she had become estranged from her sister as she became more high profile, explaining: "Over the years she would call me. We were not close but we stayed in contact.
"I didn't feel a separation from her until I was in the wheelchair. The more high profile she became, she never mentioned me.
"I am not sure how the Queen would feel about someone who shuns their own family. Meghan is narcissistic and selfish. I think the Royal Family would be appalled."
