Why there is ‘no chance’ of a reconciliation between Meghan and her father

“There’s no chance right now.”

 

A chance at a reconciliation between Meghan Markle and her dad, Thomas, is reportedly “completely off the table” after his recent string of interviews.

The 74-year-old has made a number of controversial comments in recent weeks – including how Princess Diana would have “loathed” how he is being treated, and wondered if Meghan would be better off “if I was dead.”

He did admit, though, that he would be “heartbroken” if the Duchess of Sussex never spoke to him again – and is hoping to reconcile with her.

However, the possibility of patching things up between the father-daughter duo is said to be “completely off the table at the moment.”

According to a Daily Mail source close to the actress: “there’s no chance right now – he’s been a complete embarrassment.”

The person also said that Meghan and her father have reportedly had issues since before she even met Prince Harry – and that the 36-year-old is taking his words “with a grain of salt.”

The source said:

“The Royal Family isn’t as upset as you’d think either.

“Nothing any of them [the Markle family] say has any real consequence and they [Meghan and Harry] have more important things to focus on.”

In his most recent interview, Thomas Markle accused his daughter of having “cut me off completely” – claiming that they haven’t spoken in 10 weeks.

He also said that he wanted to send her a card for her birthday, which takes place on August 4, but didn’t think she would actually get it.

He told The Mail on Sunday

“I thought about sending it by Priority Mail Express, but the Palace would probably just soak it in water for three days to make sure it doesn’t explode.”
