Well, he obviously hadn’t done anything awful enough for her to not want to speak to him again and cut him off at the time of her wedding - as she was speaking to him and he was to walk her down the aisle.

When asked in the Netflix docu about the estrangement from her father, she said it was all to do with the pap photos.

Hardly the crime of the Century, he was pictured in his suit or something? Anyone would think he had insulted Phil and Liz or kicked one of the pageboys around Windsor

I agree. 2 heart attacks, a stroke, 80 next year. Daughter cut him off. Grandkids he has never met but yearns to see.

It's a lot.

It could have been the straw that broke the camels back though......certainly what I found unforgivable that my nan did was more to do with the timing....and a build up of stress of surrounding circumstances. Without being privy to everything its difficult to say. As I said, I had family members saying awful stuff to me about cutting my nan off, but I stand by it. Even my mum probably would have told me to let it go

there is no divine right to see are speak to anyone. Some people seem to be incapable of understanding that, but it's true none the less. It's not even nasty or depriving someone if that is the path someone chooses. You cannot force yourself on anyone and legally, the father better pipe down or he is going to be in a bit of bother

oh, i don't think M&H have behaved well at all over this whole thing, but it doesn't change realities. If it were me being cut off, i would just say **** em, their loss, and move on with my life

She told harry she had a bad childhood, she was a poor girl
The streets she lived on were violent

All lies so harry couldn’t meet her dad who would of told him the complete opposite

Remember she had to climb through the boot of her car bec the door didn’t work

Remember Harry on the radio programme when they were dating telling us that Meghan was going to be spending Xmas at Balmoral and his family would be like “the family she never had"?

Broadcasting what she had told him to all and sundry. Awful for any family to hear.

She played harry like a fiddle
Just wanted to know if he was nice
Said she knew nothing about the royals but read the books on Diana

Yes, she said this in her engagement interview - yet she had previously gotten Markus Anderson, a consultant for elite members-only club Soho House to introduce her to Princess Eugenie, and was seen partying with her and her ‘set’ for months before she finally wangled a date with Harry. Which was the object. People don’t know the half of it, or pretend they don't ….

I don’t think Mr Markle has done himself any favours….but maybe it’s his way of reaching out if she doesn’t take his calls or reply to letters etc. He never did anything bad…so what if he sold a story on her…he didn’t make any criticism of her . I think Meghan being the social climber she is, found her father not quite fitting the ‘image’ on her social scene…nor did having this slightly unkempt man walk her down the aisle in front of the whole world was not the image she wanted…whereas her mother portrayed the ‘right’ image, looking classy and demure…snobbery at its best.
Her decision to sit with Oprah and tell 14 ‘mis-truths about her short time with her husbands family with the only intention to make them look bad and throw herself in the spotlight…compared to what her father has done…is a different level.
Meghan is his daughter, her children his grandchildren….why wouldn’t he want to see them

[Glenn.]

“So what if he sold a story on her”

Jesus

[Liam-]

Any parent that takes advantage of a media firestorm, to earn a quick buck by selling stories about their child and continuously slagging her off on tv, should be ashamed of themselves, it’s not how a decent parent acts

Not only did she sell her story…she lied and lied to up her profile and grab the headlines.

Wouldn’t you have a problem with her father, as you say, doing the same thing though?

Meghan sells stories bad, her father sells stories good.

[Glenn.]

It’s just obviously ok for her father to do it because it goes against Meghan.

[Glenn.]

Literally what the anti Meghan lot are though no?

If they dont want to be called haters, don’t hate on a woman

Again, fact.

I think both are bad for selling their stories like they do, Meghan and her father. Do you think both are bad too, or just her father? Because if you think just her father then you're massively contradicting yourself. It would like unto "father sells stories bad, Meghan sells stories good".

[Jordan.]

A father betraying his daughter for no reason other than money is far worse than someone complaining about their extended family after a disagreement.

Obviously I don't mean it in a sinister way like that, but we don't know if he was a terrible Father to Meghan.

Or tbf maybe she is being a bitch to him, but I feel like none of us know their dynamic personally.

You do realise that you're saying that Meghan should make the effort to fix her relationship with her Father, when it's the Father that's badmouthing her right? Why shouldn't he be trying to make amends with Meghan?

Or how about if they don't like each other just leave them both to it?

So for those of you rightly slating her father here, same could be said for her and Harry slating his lot in a very public manner, no?

It's a fair point with Harry as it's his family.

The same can be said for William too when he got one of his servants to spread negative gossip about H&M.

Common sense dictates that if you want a good relationship with your family, don't badmouth them to the scummy Media.
