The family feud never ends. Now Thomas Markle (78) on Australian television again about the broken relationship with his daughter, Duchess Meghan (41), spoken. In an interview with “ 7NEWS Spotlight“He shares his pain over the radio silence, begging Meghan to approach him again.
In his grief over Meghan, the 78-year-old chooses drastic words: “She killed me in my mind and then mourned for me in television interviews.” But Thomas Markle does not want to give up: “I refuse to be buried by her”, he says in front of the camera.

The time of TV-Doku could not be more explosive: It will be broadcast on Sunday – just six days before the coronation of King Charles III. (74) am 6. From.
There has been absolute radio silence between Markle and his daughter – for four years! “She loved me. i am her hero And suddenly I was kicked out,” laments Markle.

Thomas Markle found Meghan’s behavior particularly cruel when she last contacted him, but only in writing. In 2018, she wrote her father a letter urging him to stop speaking to the press.
Markle found her words extremely hurtful. And he says, “When she wrote me that letter, there was no address I could reply to… It was so awful and cruel.”
The loss of his daughter has hit Thomas Markle hard
Leaking the letter to the press made the situation even worse. Meghan saw her privacy violated, misrepresented herself. She sued the British newspaper group “Associated Newspapers” – and won.

But that only drove the wedge between Thomas Markle and his daughter deeper. The situation seems deadlocked. “How can I fix this?” He asks his daughter on TV.
“I wish we could sit down and talk. I wish we could work out our differences,” says Markle.
To mend the broken relationship with his daughter, he takes Meghan’s husband, Prinz Harry (38), on duty: “Harry should take the lead here and try to bring us together somehow. I think he could help.”
Hope dies last.
