Meghan Markle’s Father Claims She Has ‘Changed’ and Wields ‘Big Influence over Harry’
Thomas Markle, the father of Meghan Markle, the Duchess of Sussex, made a candid appearance on Good Morning Britain today, revealing his thoughts on his daughter’s relationship with Prince Harry. In a heartfelt interview, Thomas Markle expressed his longing to reunite with his grandchildren, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet, while also shedding light on the dynamics within the royal couple’s relationship.
Mr. Markle, speaking from San Diego, shared that he hasn’t seen Meghan or Prince Harry in five years. The last communication he had with them was just prior to their grandiose royal wedding, during which he was hospitalized. During the interview, Good Morning Britain host Richard pressed Mr. Markle about his feelings concerning the passage of time and his estrangement from his daughter.
In response, Thomas Markle admitted to being deeply hurt by the situation, saying, “If that was me and I was on death’s door for quite a few weeks and months, and my daughter turned her back on me, I’d be heartbroken.” This statement underscored the pain and emotional toll that the family’s public estrangement has had on him.
According to reports by News.com.au on Monday, September 18, 2023, Mr. Markle’s most significant revelation during the interview was his perception of Meghan’s influence over Prince Harry. He stated, “Meghan rules the roost as she has more power over Harry than he does over her.” This comment provides a glimpse into the dynamics of the couple’s relationship, which has been a subject of fascination and speculation by the public and media alike.
Thomas Markle also made an emotional plea for access to his grandchildren, expressing his desire to see them and emphasizing the significance of family bonds. “I still haven’t seen my grandkids, and I want to see my grandkids, and I think the King would like to see his grandkids as well,” he asserted.
He added, “I’m very upset about it as well because this is a cruel thing to do to a grandparent, not just me, but to the King of England as well, denying the right to see a grandchild, grandchildren.” This reference to “the King of England” highlights the broader societal implications and public interest surrounding the estrangement, as it touches upon the royal family’s role in the matter.
The interview with Thomas Markle has ignited fresh discussions about the dynamics within the Duke and Duchess of Sussex’s relationship, as well as the complex family dynamics that have played out on the global stage. As the world watches and speculates, the quest for reconciliation and understanding continues between Meghan, Harry, and their extended family.
