Meghan Markle’s estranged dad is making a ‘deathbed’ plea, begging Meghan Markle for a final chance to mend their fractured relationship.
Thomas Markle, 78, sat down for a candid interview with Australia’s 7NEWS Spotlight, set to air this coming Sunday, just days before King Charles’ coronation.
In a sneak peak of the interview, 78-year-old Thomas, who suffered health issues including a possible stroke last year, makes a ‘death bed’ plea to reunite and fix things with his daughter.
Meghan’s father, who is seemingly in poor health, is seen holding childhood photos of Meghan as he asks, ‘How can I fix this?’
The program claims that ‘treasured memories, secret tapes and home truths are all coming out,’ and Thomas, Meghan’s half-siblings, Samantha Markle and Thomas Markle Jr., can be seen sitting together watching some of those tapes.
The retired Hollywood lighting director suffered a stroke last year and fears he hasn’t got much time left to make amends with his Duchess daughter, who he hasn’t spoken to in five years.
The pair were once close, but their relationship soured shortly before Meghan’s 2018 wedding to Prince Harry.
Meghan’s estranged half-sister, Samantha Markle, 58, also appears in the TV special stating: ‘She [Meghan] would still be a waitress if it wasn’t for dad.’
Samantha also hit out at Meghan’s marriage to Harry, describing it as ‘toxic.’
Meanwhile, the trailer shows that Meghan’s estranged half-brother, Thomas Markle Jr., 56, is also set to dish details on the family drama, ominously stating: ‘We’re not going to go away.’
Meghan remains estranged from the father’s side of her family following her fall-out with her dad.
Thomas was set to walk his daughter down the aisle at her 2018 royal wedding before he was busted secretly collaborating with paparazzi to stage photos.
