Meghan Markle is not happy - at least according to what her father says
Thomas Markle releases a new interview in which he attacks the Royal Family: that's why he thinks Meghan Markle would not be happy with her new life
Meghan Markle is not happy with her new life at court, at least according to dad Thomas, who observes her from a distance - judging her daughter's status probably from the same images we see circulating.
The father of the Duchess of Sussex gave an interview - yet another - to The Sun on Sunday explaining why, according to his judgment, the daughter behind smiles and affectionate gestures would be concealing a state of dissatisfaction, if not fear.
Prince Harry's father-in-law also returned to the theme of the meeting that had never yet taken place with the Queen and Meghan's new family.
Here are his statements.
Meghan is afraid
According to Thomas Markle, the daughter is not too comfortable in her new role as a member of the royal family:
“I think she is terrified.
I see it in her eyes, I see it on her face and I see it in her smile.
I've seen his smile for years, I know him.
And I don't like what I'm seeing now. This is not even a facade expression, it is a pained smile, of pain.
Maybe he's just had a few bad days, but I think he's under too much pressure.
There is a high price to pay to be married to that family ".
Thomas Markle's appeal
During the interview, Meghan's father admitted that he hadn't heard from her for almost two months, considering that the last telephone conversation between the two dates back to the day after the wedding.
“I spoke to Harry and Meghan for a few minutes after the wedding.
But now the number I was calling her is no longer active and I don't have an address to reach her.
I texted my contact at the palace saying I wanted to hear from my daughter and got no reply.
It's probably the longest time I've ever gone without talking to her.
If I had a message for her it would be that I'm sorry for everything she may have done wrong. '
The attack on the Royal Family
"I'm not blaming Harry or anyone else, but they follow protocols that don't make sense to me," continues Thomas Markle.
They are no less human than others. God only knows how sorry I am for them, how sorry I am that they cannot express their emotions.
The Royal Family lives by outdated rules.
Why in 2018 do we dress like it's the 30s? Why do they have to cover their knees? '
The past mistakes of Meghan's father
Thomas Markle's apology refers to the back and forth about his participation in Meghan and Harry's wedding.
After the scandal of the photos agreed with a paparazzo, the father of the bride had decided not to attend the wedding.
The following day he announced that he had changed his mind and wanted to accompany his daughter to the altar, as long as the doctors gave him the green light for his heart problems.
Two days before the royal wedding, the announcement that Thomas Markle would not be there and that Meghan would be accompanied for a while by Prince Charles.
The relapse
What maybe Meghan's father doesn't understand is that continuing to give interviews about his daughter and the royal family certainly does not calm the situation.
But Thomas Markle goes on undeterred:
“I have already apologized to the Royal Family. I sincerely believe that if the Queen takes all this time to decide whether or not to see me because I took stupid pictures, it's ridiculous.
I wish this was my last interview. All I'm doing is trying to reach my daughter. '
