The half-brother of Meghan Markle has slammed his
estranged royal sibling as ‘cold’ and said her marriage to Prince Harry could soon be ‘for the chopping block’
during an embittered outburst on an Australian reality TV show.
Talking to a room full of his fellow Celebrity Big Brother Australia contestants,
Thomas, 55, revealed he thought Meghan had been ‘cold’ towards her ex-husband, Trevor
Engelson, 45.
Thomas told his co-contestants that American film producer Engelson had
‘adored’ his sister but said that she took advantage of him during their
short-lived marriage.
The half-brother of the former Suits star, who married Prince Harry in
2018, also claimed he used to be close to his sister before she moved to Canada and was ‘changed’ by suddenly having money.

Sharing his apparent shock at the ‘change’ he saw in his half-sister
after she shot to fame playing Rachel Zane for seven seasons in Suits, Thomas
told his housemates: ‘That’s the big thing now, what happened to her?
‘No one can figure it out. Money changed her I guess and fame went to
her head really bad.
Discussing Meghan Markle’s previous marriage, he told the show: ‘Trevor
took care of her, she was adored by him, and she walked all over him and dumped
him. That fast.
He said he considered Meghan sending her ex-husband the wedding ring
back in the post as a ‘cold’ gesture.

he had ‘no idea.

He said: ‘But, you know, Harry’s next. Harry’s on the chopping
board next. The only difference between now and then is in all the photos prior
to that, he had a smile on his face. All the ones after, he doesn’t.’
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have welcomed two young children, Archie
Harrison Mountbatten-Windsor, two, and Lilibet Diana Mountbatten-Windsor, eight
months, since their wedding day.

Thomas’s contestants appeared amused with what he had to say with one admitting he thinks Harry seems like a ‘good guy’
The couple famously relocated to California after Harry stepped back
from royal duties in 2020. The couple, who are currently living in his $14
million mansion gave a series of explosive interviews in 2021, in which he
revealed an astonishing rift with Prince Charles.
