Meghan Markle’s estranged father Thomas calls the Sussexes’ silence on Scobie book ‘unusual’
- Markle has repeatedly asked Meghan if he could see his grandchildren
Meghan Markle’s estranged father Thomas says the Sussexes’ silence is ‘unusual’.
Markle, 79, who fell out with daughter Meghan when he suffered two heart attacks on the eve of her wedding to Prince Harry in 2018 and was unable to walk her down the aisle, said: ‘Another letter? Again?’
Meghan wrote her father a five-page letter after her wedding. The letter’s existence was “leaked” to People magazine by five of her friends six months later.
Mr Markle said: “Here we have another letter from my daughter that has somehow ended up in the public domain. Another letter? Again? The fact that Harry and Meghan have not publicly distanced themselves from this seems unusual to me.’
