Meghan Markle’s family members from her father’s side sat down to discuss their estranged relationship with the Duchess.
Meghan’s father, Thomas Markle Sr., half-sister Samantha, and half-brother, Thomas, Jr., joined forces to discuss why they believe Meghan distanced herself from them after marrying into the British Royal Family. In an explosive interview, the trio shed light on their relationship with one of the world’s most famous women.
The family members, who have had no contact with Meghan since 2018 when she married Prince Harry, were asked to explain why they think Meghan chose to distance herself from them publicly. They believe Meghan cut ties because she considered them unworthy of the royal family.
Meghan severed ties with her father’s side of the family in 2018, following her father’s staged paparazzi photos before the royal wedding. Samantha harshly criticized Meghan, claiming that she would still be a waitress if their father had not intervened. She also labeled the couple’s relationship as “toxic” and unhealthy.
Thomas Markle, Sr. emotionally expressed his desire to sit down and reconcile with his daughter.
The family members shared old video clips showcasing Meghan’s close relationship with her father and the rest of the family. The videos included Meghan playing baseball, fishing at the lake, watching movies, and taking dance lessons.
The interview also addressed Prince Harry’s comments about Meghan grieving the loss of her father, with Thomas, Sr. stating that she killed him and then mourned him.
Thomas, Sr. also said that the private letter he leaked to the Daily Mail was insulting and cruel, and that the Queen had never read it. He stated that he had to “get his side out” after Meghan shared the letter with six other people.
The interview concluded with the release of a throwback photo of Meghan, which is expected to elicit a negative reaction from her. The image shows a smiling Meghan, wearing a low-buttoned white collared shirt and a messy low bun at an undisclosed event. The family questioned whether Harry and Meghan desired privacy and criticized Harry’s past experiences and actions.
