Thomas Markle, the 76-year-old father of Meghan Markle wants to tell his story at Oprah Winfrey. A month after his daughter and her husband, the British Prince Harry, gave a sensational interview, it is time for his side of the story, he says.

Markle did not make that request by mail or in the press, but according to the British newspaper The Sun, he would have delivered a handwritten letter to a security officer at Oprah Winfrey’s home in Montecito, California. Remarkable: he was also immediately close to the new home of his daughter, who lives only a kilometer from the American talk show host. Yet it seems unlikely that he would ring the bell there too: the two have been at odds with each other for a long time. Her father had not been invited to the wedding and the two would not have spoken to each other for three years.

According to a source, Thomas Markle would have seen the interview of his daughter and son-in-law and thought it was his turn to tell what had happened. In that high-profile interview, Meghan Markle talked about why she couldn’t settle in the British royal family. Among other things, racism towards her unborn son Archie was a heavy argument, according to Markle. The day after it was broadcast, Thomas Markle was already on a program on British television, in which he said he hoped things could still work out. He also admitted to working with the media behind his daughter’s back.
