Meghan Markle’s Pain Over Father’s ‘Hurtful’ Comments Exposed
Meghan Markle is reportedly struggling with deep emotions after her father, Thomas Markle, publicly criticized her authenticity in her latest Netflix venture.
The Duchess of Sussex debuted her new cooking show, *With Love, Meghan*, on March 4, but instead of universal praise, the series has faced criticism for lacking originality and relatability.
Adding to the backlash, Thomas Markle shared his disapproval in an interview with the *Daily Mail*, accusing Meghan of “putting on a performance” rather than being her true self. “She’s trying so hard to be perfect that she tenses up every time the camera is on her,” he remarked.
Psychologist Stefan Walters has weighed in on the potential emotional impact of Thomas Markle’s remarks, suggesting that they could be particularly painful for Meghan.
Speaking to *OK!* magazine, Walters compared estranged family relationships to a divorce, where both parties might wish they could simply move on and erase each other from their lives. However, he emphasized that the biological connection between Meghan and her family makes that impossible.
“No matter how much distance exists, there’s always an inescapable bond,” Walters explained. “When an estrangement occurs, any reminder of that connection can be deeply painful and emotionally challenging.”
As Meghan navigates the latest wave of public scrutiny, the emotional strain of her fractured relationship with her father remains an ongoing challenge.
