Prince Harry is ‘too late’ to repair his damaged relationship with royals: ‘Trust has been broken’
Meghan Markle’s estranged father, Thomas Markle Sr., said he’s “saddened” that Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet are being “denied” a royal lifestyle.
The retired TV lighting director, 79, has been expressing interest in meeting his two grandchildren ahead of his 80th birthday — but his pleas have so far been met with complete silence from the Sussex camp.
His desperation kicked into high gear after last month’s Trooping the Colour ceremony, to which the “Suits” alum and her husband, Prince Harry, did not receive an invitation.

After watching the annual event, Thomas Sr. said his grandkids are being denied their “birthright.”
“It struck me as very sad that Meghan and Harry’s kids are being denied the right to know their cousins, who look like fantastic children, or take part in things like Trooping the Colour, which is their birthright,” he told New Zealand Woman’s Weekly.
“They are getting to the age where they will start to ask questions, as all kids do. I find myself wondering how Archie and Lilbet will feel in a few years’ time when they realize all the things they have missed out on.”
The Post has reached out to reps for the Duke and Duchess of Sussex for comment.
Last month, Thomas Sr. begged to meet Harry and Meghan’s two children ahead of his July 18 birthday.

“I’ve never been one for birthdays, but I know the one person I most want to hear from, Meghan, won’t be in touch,” he told the Daily Mail.
“I would love to meet my grandchildren, but I would be happy with a photograph at this stage.”
Meghan’s relationship with her father became strained in 2018 shortly before her wedding to Prince Harry, and has only continued to sour after he suffered a stroke in 2022.
