Meghan Markle may face a difficult decision if she decides to reach out to her estranged father Thomas, according to a royal commentator.

Meghan Markle risks “jeopardising her privacy” if she decides to make contact with her father due to her brother Thomas Markle Junior and his YouTube channel, it’s been claimed.

Both Meghan and Prince Harry are now barely on speaking terms with their own families, as the Duchess of Sussex cut off her father Thomas Markle Senior after he staged paparazzi photos in 2018, just before her wedding.

Her older half-brother has also caused trouble for her as he has posted insults and conspiracy theories about her online, even impersonating her and calling himself ‘Me-gain’.

Kinsey Schofield asked on Heirs & Spares: “Can Meghan pick up the phone and say, ‘Dad, I want to talk to you but you can’t tell Samantha [her half-sister], you can’t tell Thomas Jr?

“Her brother has a regular YouTube channel where he talks about his sister, he impersonates his sister. It’s almost like she’s in an impossible situation because how could she access her father without jeopardising some of that privacy?”
