Thomas Markle, my story. Ch5, Wed 22nd January
 
Did anyone watch this heartbreaking programme?

Sorry but a dad making a TV show to say how bad his daughter is does not scream "great dad" to me. If I ever fell out with either of my children (even if I thought they were in the wrong) they're my kids, the last thing I'd do is try to publicly humiliate them to get sympathy for myself. The fact that he was willing to do this speaks much clearer than whatever he has to say in the show.

He wasn't saying how bad his daughter is..he was saying he loves and adores her and is simply confused and hurt as he does not know why he has been shunned and abandoned.

Accusing her of shunning and abandoning him isn't saying she's bad?

Only 2 and 3 years ago she was saying how none of her success would have been possible if it wasn't for her dad..everyone should have a father like him she said.....

Why shouldn't he...he put her through college and wants some repayment.

Since when do parents want repayment for educating their kids?

he did not make the tv show

he also probably feels without a voice and his true side of the story is being trampled on by his daughter and her passive aggressive ways plus her media clout/apologists

He’s her father. Why does he need repayment?

LeatherTrumpet 23-01-2020 01:54 PM

1.4 million watched - won the night

many feel for this poor father

Well they didn't force him at gun point to appear though, did they?

Why would he care about the British public knowing "his side of the story" he doesn't even live there. If he was such a great dad and he blames the Royals and not his beloved daughter, surely the best way to protect her is to stop talking about her publicly

some tweets during the show

From the main DM article. The top comments with over 12,000 green arrows


"Say what you want about this man but no one can doubt that he loved his daughter and was oh so proud of her. I believe that was partly responsible for her monumental ego. But in every picture you can see how much he loved her. But like everyone who loved her, she turned her back when they were no longer of use. Very sad"

Awful, horrible man slagging his own daughter off for the sake of making a quick dollar and people wonder why Meghan doesn’t want a close relationship with him, probably scared he’d sell her possessions off on eBay, bless her being put in this situation.

Kazanne 23-01-2020 02:04 PM

I missed it but would like to see it,it's always good to get two sides of a story, I did think at first he was a bit of a douche ,but not so much now , so yes,I'de be interested to hear it from his point of view

I love that people are talking about her like she’s the antichrist. It’s hilarious

Amy Jade 23-01-2020 02:11 PM

I felt bad for him at first but the more it has dragged on I think he deserves to be shunned. Megan has made it clear that him talking to the press upsets her yet he continues to make money out of talking about her and ultimately he obviously cares more about money than his daughter
