- Meghan Markle's family travelled to London ahead of wedding to Prince Harry
- They uploaded photos to social media including cardboard cutouts of the royals
- Megan's nephew Tyler Dooley, 25, busted with a knife at a nightclub on Sunday
- Bouncers confiscated the blade and Dooley fled before cops arrived at the club
Meghan Markle's estranged family have uploaded photos of their time in London after being snubbed from the wedding guest list.
The
newlywed's former sister-in-law Tracy Dooley and her son, Meghan's
nephew Tyler, arrived in the UK ahead of the nuptials last week.
The pair were set to appear on Good Morning Britain as commentators on Meghan's wedding to Prince Harry but were dropped by ITV at the last minute.
Despite
the rebuff however, they have been documenting their time in the
capital, enjoying British classics including Toad-in-the-hole, posing at
landmarks and alongside cardboard cut outs of the royal family.
Meghan's
cannabis-growing nephew was caught trying to take a knife into a London
club on Sunday claiming he brought the blade because Donald Trump
warned the capital was like a 'war zone'.
It is also reported that he handed police a pepper spray when officers arrived, according to Sky News.

Tyler Dooley, 25, was one of a
number of the Duchess of Sussex's family to fly into the UK and try to
cash in on her big day despite not being invited to the royal wedding.
But
he ran into trouble in the early hours of Sunday morning at Kingston
nightclub Bacchus after he surrendered the four-inch lock-blade knife to
club bouncers.
He reportedly said he
brought the weapon from the US to London because President Trump had
warned that the city is 'like a war zone'.
The
Met said they were called to Bacchus but he reportedly 'ran off' before
they arrived and Scotland Yard has confirmed they would not be taking
any further action.
Mr Dooley's
attempts to make money off the back of his tenuous link to Meghan
includes trying to sell a new strain of cannabis he has called Markle's
Sparkle from his Oregon farm.
Despite being snubbed from the guest list, the mother and son have clearly been enjoying their time in the capital

Dooley,
25, was not invited to the royal wedding, but was celebrating
in Kingston, southwest of London, early Sunday when he surrendered the
four-inch lock-blade knife to club bouncers,The Sun reported.
The
incident occurred after midnight at nightclub Bacchus, where Dooley was
celebrating with his girlfriend, mother Tracy and older brother TJ.
Dooley,
a legal marijuana farmer from Oregon, and his family arrived in London
earlier in the week and had planned to appear on Good Morning Britain as
commentators on Meghan's wedding to Prince Harry. They were dropped by ITV on Thursday, however.
Cut
out of the official post-wedding celebrations at Frogmore House in
Windsor, the Dooley clan apparently decided to observe the occasion by
barhopping in Kingston.

Later, the family would cross Kingston's market square to Bacchus, a pulsating late-night dance club.
'They were all obviously a bit tipsy from celebrating the wedding, but not in bad spirits,' a witness told the Sun.
'As
Tyler came up to the bouncer, he said, "I have a knife on me." He
pulled it out and handed it to the staff,' the source added.
The
Duchess of Sussex's nephew explained to the bouncers that 'he’d brought
it from America because Donald Trump had said London wasn’t safe.'
Earlier
this month, Trump claimed that knife crime in London is so bad that one
unnamed hospital is 'like a war zone for horrible stabbing wounds' with
'blood all over the floors'.
Police
figures for London show a 44 per cent increase in homicide for the year
ending in April 2018, as well as a 21 per cent increase in knife crime.

Bouncers at Bacchus were not impressed by Dooley's explanation, however.
'They
acted very calmly and dialed 999 and that’s when some local guys told
him he’d get arrested. At that point he ran off,' the source said.
It
is illegal to carry knives in public in the UK, unless they are folding
knives with a blade under three inches. Police do not consider lock
knives to be folding, since the blade does not always immediately fold.
It's
unclear if Dooley would have broken any laws by bringing the blade into
the country from the US, as he allegedly told bouncers he did.
London's Metropolitan Police Service said in a statement that they were called to the club at around 1.55am on Sunday.
Cops said they recovered the knife from bouncers but no arrest was made, as the suspect had left the scene.

Dooley's brother TJ is said to have returned to the scene to apologize and attempt to explain the incident to bouncers.
When
a reporter from the Sun approached the Dooleys at the DoubleTree hotel
in Kingston, the family declined to comment and hid inside a utility
closet.
Mother Tracy Dooley was married
to Meghan's half-brother Tom Markle Jr, and Meghan used to babysit the
elder brother TJ as a child.
Tyler Dooley, through the company he runs with his mother, has introduced a specialty cannabis strain called 'Markle Sparkle'.
The family were bound back for America on Sunday night, according to Tracy Dooley's Facebook posts.
'Had a great time mate!' she wrote. 'We had loads of fun in London.'
