The ultimate revenge of Thomas Markle, Meghan's father, on television
The Duchess's father believes that she and Prince Harry "are becoming lost souls" and that they are "destroying" the British crown.
Thomas Markle has culminated the revenge against his daughter, Meghan Markle, in the film Thomas Markle: My Story in which he leaves no subject untouched. While she does not stop asking for more privacy from the British media, something that was key in her resignation, her father has aligned himself with them to portray what his life was like before joining the "rigid" British royal family and has updated what you think of your daughter.
For the 90-minute film broadcast on Wednesday night on British Channel 5, the father of the former American actress has shared videos and never-before-seen images of Meghan's life. From newborn images, her high school graduation, and Christmas scenes to posing with her mother, Doria Ragland.
Since she married Prince Harry, Meghan has not had a truce from her father even when she was pregnant, and it has been one of the main reasons why the Duchess has been chaining a controversy with another for months.
The former director of lighting in audiovisual productions has also spoken about her feelings about the attitude of the Duchess after meeting Prince Harry, says that she changed and stopped wanting to see her. In the film she has accused Harry, whom she has never met in person, of acting like a "sensitive" 12-year-old.
Without feeling guilty, Thomas Markle has defended his decision to speak in the film and to receive payment for the interview he has given. "I do not care. At this point, they owe me. The royal family owes me. Harry owes me, Meghan owes me. What I've been through should be rewarded. My daughter told me that when I reach my senior year she will take care of me. Now I am in my last year, it is time to take care of dad ”.
The couple is pending a lawsuit against the Mail On Sunday publisher following the publication of a private letter from Meghan to her father, which he himself leaked. Some British media are already speculating that Thomas Markle could be called upon to testify at trial, of course, not for the Duchess's defense.
Thomas believes he is a defender of the British crown when he says that Meghan and Harry "are destroying it, they are turning it into Walmart - in reference to a well-known low-cost supermarket chain." "Every young woman wants to become a princess and she succeeded and now she is discarding it and it seems that she is doing it for money", has been another of Thomas' darts to his daughter.
The end of the good relationship between Meghan and her father became public knowledge on the wedding day in the Chapel of Windsor Castle. Days after being caught falsifying photographs to sell them to the media, he did not take Meghan to the altar, as planned, alluding to a heart problem, from which he recovered to give multiple interviews to the press in which he portrayed himself as a victim of the Meghan's snobbery, and to which this is now added.
