Thomas Markle uses great means to shake his daughter. In an interview with ITV’s Good Morning Britain, Meghan’s father said he was deeply saddened by the idea of ??dying without ever having met his grandchildren, Archie (4) and Lilibet (2). “I’m heartbroken and I’m also very angry because it’s a very cruel thing to prevent a grandparent from seeing their grandchildren,” Thomas Markle, 79, said. “I want to see my grandchildren and I think the king would like to see them too…”

In this case, Charles III had the opportunity to meet Harry’s children, but in a furtive manner, notably during Queen Elizabeth’s last jubilee in 2022, in London. This is not the case for Thomas Markle, who has no longer had a relationship with his daughter since the princely marriage. “Meghan lived with me from sixth grade to high school and I’ve never seen anything like this,” he lamented.
