Meghan Markle is facing renewed criticism as her estrangement from her father, Thomas Markle, clashes with the family-focused image she’s been promoting this year.
With Thomas now recovering in intensive care after a leg amputation, royal commentators argue that the duchess’s distance from him raises questions, especially as she highlights themes of connection and togetherness in her public projects.
Thomas, who fears he may die without reconciling, says he misses his daughter and has never met his grandchildren, while experts believe his repeated interviews stem from both emotional hurt and financial strain.
Meghan reportedly did send him a letter during his health crisis, but her team says private communication has been difficult because a reporter has been stationed at his bedside. Still, her father’s long history of leaked letters, interviews, and public criticism continues to make trust hard to rebuild, a situation Meghan’s half-brother hopes she can look past, urging her to show their father compassion as he fights to recover.
