Meghan Markle was, allegedly, asked to heal her rift with her dad, Thomas Markle Sr. amid the deadly coronavirus pandemic.

However, there hasn’t been any update regarding the father and daughter’s relationship. As such, there are some speculations suggesting that the two haven’t made amends.

Markle and Thomas used to have a close relationship before the former started dating Prince Harry. Shortly after the Duke and Duchess of Sussex were engaged, Thomas posed for a series of fake photos for Daily Mail.

In the snaps, Thomas is getting fitted with a suit and a tie. He also seems to be preparing for his daughter’s wedding day.

However, none of the photos were legit because all preparations for the royal wedding was done in private. Shortly after it was confirmed that Thomas faked his photos, he started giving shocking interviews about Markle.

Earlier this year, Thomas sat down for an interview in Thomas Markle: My Story, where he talked about his absence from the royal wedding. He said that he wanted to apologize to Queen Elizabeth and Prince Charles for his absence but never had the chance to do so.

Thomas also said that he no longer knows who his daughter is now because they haven’t spoken in so long.

The former lighting director once again slammed Prince Harry and Markle following the release of Finding Freedom last summer.

While speaking with TMZ, Thomas said that he doesn’t think the couple has the right to use the world royal. And he also said that he doesn’t think Prince Harry and Markle have the right to speak to the queen in the way that they’ve been doing for months.

Thomas also said that Markle dumped him one day before she tied the knot with Prince Harry. And she also dumped his family, as well as Doria Ragland’s family. And she also dumped the royal family.

But while speaking with Closer UK, expert Dr. Becca Bland said that there are a lot of reasons why estranged family members refuse to heal rifts even though they’re at risk of dying.

Bland said that every person has a different reason why they want to heal rifts or refuse to do so. Some feel guilt or regret that's why they want to heal their rift. Others may also feel a sense of relief and closure when the person they're feuding with passes away. 

However, it is unclear how Markle feels about her dad because she has not publicly addressed their issues.
