Exclusive: Thomas Markle's Final Interview? A Plea To See His Grandchildren | Good Morning Britain

The last-ever interview Thomas Markle is likely to give. He wants to make a last appeal for reconciliation with Meghan and a chance to meet the grandchildren he so wishes to see before he dies. He would also like it to be part of a process by which the Sussexes also make peace with Harry's father and brother. Thomas, who has recovered his speech following a severe stroke, says that he has shared grandchildren with the King of England for a whole year and neither has seen their grandchildren.
Both he and King Charles have been described as hardworking, shy and grumpy at times, and he is willing to acknowledge the fact this may not have helped solve the situation. But, despite being heartbroken that his daughter failed to make contact or ask about him in the wake of his stroke, he is keen to reach out if only for one conversation - in whichever format she chooses.

I think it is incredibly rude of this male interviewer to keep saying to Thomas, "well you're on death's door, and you'll be dead soon, and you almost died earlier this year." What is wrong with you?

He was an oscar nominated Lighting Director with two Emmys, who looked after Meghan for a huge proportion of her life, paid for her lessons and took her to studios to get her started in her career.

I'm not a Meghan Markle fan. But Thomas Markle is not helping himself out here by trying to see the grandkids this way. She will never let him see them with his constant running to the media. He doesn't actually have the right. It's based on relationship.

[@NiceDonkey3417]

They're in America. He does have a right. We only have a handful of reasons you can lawfully keep a grandchild from their grandparents.

[@Predictable1]

​@NiceDonkey3417 They're minors, and unless the kids are endangered or abused, only the parents can decide who enter their lives. He could try suing but unless he has a good solid reason other than "I want to see them just cuz I'm the grandpa", he ain't winning that. Besides, if the kids reside in another country with their parents, any attempt at "suing" is almost laughable. Unless the kids are abused or in bad conditions, he must respect her decision, he already had his own children and did as he wanted to when they were young, he doesn't get to decide over other people's children. Megan might be unfair with her decision, or perhaps she has good reasons behind it, honestly, who knows, but that's irrelevant anyway cause these are her kids, not his, and if she doesn't want certain people in their young lives for X or Y reasons, then that's it.

[@NiceDonkey3417]

Reading is fundamental. The states have grandparents rights. @@Predictable1

[@Predictable1]

@NiceDonkey3417 ironically, it seems to be you the one in need of some reading. Visitation rights aren't granted without good reason, and just because someone thinks they are entitled to somebody else's children. Grandparents' rights are usually only granted in cases where there is already a pre-existing and strong relationship between the child and the grandparent (which isn't in this case), and if they can prove that ending said relationship can negatively impact the child. So good luck on him winning that one! 👌🏼 In reality, and unless well justified, most of these requests are easy to dismiss/deny because there are laws that actually protect biological parents over any other family member in relation to the child (unless there's abuse, neglect... ect ).

This is the same father who did a secret deal with a tabloid newspaper for nearly £1m days before the wedding where he posed for pictures shopping for the big day etc. Unfortunately, for him the newspaper used him and then called him a grifter. In fact, the whole Markle clan are red neck grifters who have destroyed Harry's standing as a royal. I'm not a fan of Harry & Megan but I can appreciate they have to make a living to they no get money from the public purse or Charles. As for Thomas, he exploited her behind her back and expects to be treated as if nothing as happened. Thomas also got money for selling letters that Megan had written to him before and after the wedding. A U.K. newspaper had to pay Megan compensation for infringing her privacy.

He seems to be an emotional abusive man. And putting pressure on to your child through countless TV interviews demanding contact is emotional abuse, too.

[@maureenkelly-clark3526]

It's been 18 years since my Dad passed away,and I miss him like,crazy. Everyone says they have the best dad ever, I know,I had the best dad ever! He was one of a kind,and I feel really sorry for Mr. Markle. No one deserves what he's going through.😢

[@opelokab]

The man who teamed up with the media against his own daughter deserves it. His daughter wrote to him pleading with him to stop talking to the Press. He gave her letter to the media without replying to her. It serves the deranged haters to justify their excuses to hate Meghan by making this man a saint

[@j.whiteoak6408]

Same, Maureen.. I really hear you. Smeg is saying, "I lost my Dad" - but that's another lie. I'd give anything for one more day with my dad -- and he did far worse things to me than just setting up pap shots (which SHE set him up for - Backgrid are HER "dial-a-paps"!!) But I still loved my father & I'm so glad that I learned that hard lesson in the Bible about forgiveness, because his last years were some of our best together! Forgiveness is also imperative if you don't wish to turn into a bitter, twisted & tortured soul.. Which she clearly is. Smegs needs to learn that lesson - although I'm of the opinion that she set him up so that he couldn't come to the wedding - because she was afraid that he might slip & expose all of the lies she'd told Harry & the members of the BRF. Whereas she only had to pay her mother to keep her mouth shut. That's my own personal opinion, anyway. She had also demanded that Mr Markle cut his older children out of his life permanently - to choose HER, and ONLY her - which he refused to do, and for which I respect him all the more. What kind of person demands that of a parent!!? Well.. now we know! I hope Mr Markle is given the chance to form a close & loving relationship with his grandkiddies .. one that they will always remember & cherish ❤. Thank you for your post XX

What a horrible man to allow British media to go between him and his daughter. Well congratulations Suzann and Richard for playing your role well in creating more distance. You couldn’t allow Harry and Meghan enjoy their Invictus glory. You just had to wheel in a very unwell man for us to see. Bravo ITV. Very predictable. Royal banknotes are rolling in.

This is absolutely heartbreaking 😢 My dad had a stroke a few years ago and I was there for him immediately and have been visiting every chance I get since then. My dad is far from perfect. He has done far worse than Mr. Markle, but nobody is perfect. He's still my dad and I love him unconditionally. Meghan needs to come off that high horse and humble herself before it's too late. This man clearly loves her unconditionally. Such a sad story. God bless you Mr. Markle

[@TinyDancerO]

Every interview is his last!!! I find it interesting that Thomas Markle doesn't fight to see his other grandchildren. " I have done nothing wrong." Clearly he forgot all the trashing he has done publicly of both Meghan and Harry. The Royal family want nothing to do with him either - He doesn't beef about that? Thomas Markle walks a one way street, and doesn't see his own misgivings and faults. If Meghan hadn't married a member of the Royal Family, he wouldn't give two rats about the kids, just like he doesn't give a rats about his other grandchildren. Interview them!!! Then you'll get the real story about the Markles.

I don’t believe Thomas Markle has done anything to deserve to be cut off from his daughter. My dad was a piece of garbage that had abandoned us when we were little and physically abused us when he was around, but once he became sick and on his death bed when I was in my early 20, I couldn’t be cruel to the man. After all..he was still my father and I loved despite his wrongs.

[@byrolyn8182]

My mother would never treat me the way THOMAS has treated the DUCHESS. Why can't he send her a letter to her home in Monticello. DORIA has not spoken to the press ever.

[@user-fv9oh5xk4y]

“I’ve done nothing wrong”. Seriously he’s used her as a money grab for five years along with his other daughter who also sued her. With family like that, thank god for friends who are chosen family. And now he’s saying he doesn’t like the woman she’s become. Dear Lord. 🤦🏻‍♀️

[@karljordinson5897]

Shocking, GMB, for putting a man who you could hear in his voice, is still not well out for the media to sensationalise this story yet again

[@stephen.]

I feel sorry for him but if my father was trashing me in multiple interviews in multiple countries, I’d react similarly. He can’t expect to see his grandchildren while constantly bashing and questioning Meghan’s character for money. He’d probably have a chance if he stopped doing this and tried other ways

[@HowardBuggystar]

Isn’t it odd Harry said “ it’s astonishing what people will do for money” referring to Thomas Markle I don’t know if Thomas was paid for pap shots but for Harry to say that pot kettle.

[@GreenYoshi3881]

Something about this interview seems off and I’m in no way talking about his condition. I don’t think this interview should have even aired to be honest. Yes it’s sad but the world has come to terms with what we are dealing with here when it comes to his daughter. I know he is hurt but he has to now focus on his health. No more interviews….no more reaching out. It’s time to heal

[@Maraquinn]

It’s because GMB is very obviously exploiting this old man. He knows going on tv isn’t going to make his daughter change her mind for the hundredth time. He’s doing it for money.

[@wandai.7038]

I agree. Many people don't get to see their grandkids and we don't go public. That will never work. Would only make the parents dig in their heels. I wish he wouldn't do this.

I thought it might be myself but he shouldn't have done this interview if he truly love his daughter.

[@dcurrie9860]

Lol, clear people are hilarious. White men have been selling their mixrace children to save the farm, and so their white children can eat , the fact that white people don't see anything wrong with this man behavior is the reason black people especially black women should have boundaries and stick to it, white people can no longer demand that we accept their abuse, and it does not matter how much money the British media throws at this car wreck of a man, Meghan will never give him access to her children so he can also sell them to the British media, you all need to get use to the fact that slavery is over, and seeing that you are so sorry for Thomas Markle why don't you adopt him, this way he can have someone else other than Meghan to sell to the British media for a belly full, God, I just love when black women stand on their boundaries with middle fingers out to the Karen's who use to think they own us, happy days, happy days, that man no longer exists as far as the daughter he sold to the klan is concerned. and he is never going to make any money off her children, and karen's all over little Britain can go kick rocks.
