Meghan Markle’s family has given up all hope they might be able to reconcile with the Duchess of Sussex, a commentator has claimed.

The Duchess hasn’t seen her father in person since before her marriage to Prince Harry in 2018. Thomas Markle has appealed to his youngest daughter to speak to him and allow him to meet his grandchildren, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet.

However, Mr Markle and his eldest children, Thomas Markle Jr and Samantha Markle, have repeatedly spoken to the press about their history with Meghan – accusing her of not caring about them or their health.

He has since admitted he has give up hopes of ever burying the hatchet with Meghan.

Royal commentator Kinsey Schofield told TalkTV: “I really feel like Meghan Markle considers her father long gone. I don’t think reconciliation is even on her agenda whatsoever.

“The reality is Meghan was always going to be ashamed and embarrassed of her family. And she was always going to hide them from the press, she did not want her half-brother and half-sister at her wedding. I think they were an embarrassment to her.”
