Meghan had a close relationship with both of her parents when she was young. However, her parents’ split in 1987 and what her father did after she became famous made things worse. More stress was put on things when Thomas got sick during Meghan’s engagement to Prince Harry in 2017.
The final blow came when Thomas worked with a paparazzi to take pictures of the Royal Family that made them look bad. Because Prince Harry had been hounded by reporters before, which led to Princess Diana’s tragic death, this betrayal hurt even more.
Thomas missed Meghan’s wedding because of the problems caused by the fake pictures. He felt bad about cutting off a call with Prince Harry so quickly, and he knew that this was the start of their falling out. A news source then published Meghan’s next letter, which made the gap even bigger.
Thomas has never met his grandkids, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet, because the fight is still going on. Even though they say they want to get back together, the gap between them stays. In an interview with Oprah Winfrey, Meghan talked about the fight and how she felt betrayed.
Thomas says he was a good dad and doesn’t deserve Meghan’s treatment. The rift is still there, and reconciliation is looking less and less possible.
