Expert believes Meghan Markle will keep her distance from estranged half-brother amid dad’s scandal
An expert reportedly believes that Meghan Markle is all set to keep her distance from her estranged half-brother, Thomas Markle Jr., amid their father’s scandal. As reported by The Sun, the Duchess of Sussex’s half-brother said, “I’m so, so sorry, Meghan.”
He continued, “I now know I have been protecting the wrong person for the past nine years.” He added, “Having seen what I’ve seen, I believe the man I’ve been defending and caring for is a monster.”
In the meantime, as reported by the Daily Express, Richard Fitzwillams, a royal commentator and expert, told them that “The likelihood is that Meghan, during this extremely difficult period, will keep a total distance from her half-brother whose behaviour has been so erratic in the past.” The expert further explained, “I can’t see them being in touch despite his revelations to the Philippine police.”
Furthermore, per The Sun, while giving his apology to Meghan Markle, Thomas Markle Jr. also said, “I now know exactly why you don’t talk to him any more and why you won’t let him meet Harry or his grandchildren,” referring to the long-standing estrangement between the Duchess of Sussex and his father, Thomas Markle Sr.
Per the news outlet, the Duchess’s estranged half-brother further said, “I know we’re not close but I can still remember holding you when you were a baby and looking after you when you were small.” “So please accept my apology and know that I wish you and your family all the best for the future,” he added.
