You might know that Meghan Markle and her father, Thomas, don’t get along. The two have been involved in a lot of drama, which probably didn’t sit well with the Royal Family. The two haven’t spoken in three years.
Speaking from his home in Rosarito, Mexico, Thomas Markle said that he would like to bury the hatchet. He also says he wants to be a grandfather to Lilibet “before it was too late.”
But in the new interview with 60 Minutes Australia, Thomas Markle also commented on his daughter and Prince Harry’s televised interview with Oprah Winfrey. Meghan Markle’s dad showed his disapproval, and called Oprah out for “exploiting” Prince Harry.
He said: “I think Oprah Winfrey is playing Harry and Meghan. I think she’s using them to build her network and her new shows, and I think she’s taking advantage of a very weakened man and getting him to say things that you just shouldn’t be saying on television. She will disagree of course, and she may even sue me, I don’t care. But the bottom line is she is working Harry.”
He also addressed the fact that he hasn’t spoken to Meghan in three years. He also claimed he apologized, but she won’t forgive him.
“I haven’t spoken to her since I was laying in a hospital bed two days before they got married. I don’t know of anybody that’s that cold to do this. And now, like I said, Meghan did it to me and Harry’s doing it to his father. That’s a cold thing to do. And it’s even more cold to do it to the Queen, who’s in her nineties. None of this makes sense.”
