Meghan's father and photographer in photo scam

Maryeliza the very least Harry should have done is go over there and meet him and other family members.

Harry has met the Markle family many times! What makes you say that he hasn't?

Megan is following me and having a wedding band made from Welsh gold ?

Chewbacca, he said himself he hadn’t met her father

I’ve got a feeling that Mr Markle will suddenly be ‘unable to fly to the UK due to a sudden illness.’

He must have realised that the pictures, whether posed or not (sure they were), would embarrass his daughter.
Hopefully he will realise it was a big mistake.

Would love to have been a fly on the wall when the Queen and Duke read the reports in the press.

So everyone has run out of things to have a go at Meghan about so now it is open season on her family. So what if the photos were staged - who cares.

Precisely Oldwomany70. Jennifer E, of course everyone knows the photographs were staged. It was obvious to everyone, especially to the DM who paid for them so they could print them speedily. The DM would delight in "exposing" MM's family as being what the DM would see as rather tacky.
Leave the lot of them alone. MM's sister seems a nightmare. Most families have them, including the RF and everyone posting here I expect.

Chewbacca, he said himself he hadn’t met her father
Well, it says above that he is a recluse
(but not that reclusive, obviously!)

People in glass houses and all that.

It is now being reported that he will not be flying here for the wedding as he had a heart attack 6 days ago.

He was probably getting more and more stressed at the thought of walking Meghan down the aisle in front of not just the Royal Family et al but the world's media.

She'll be better off without him.

Poor man - especially if it’s true about the heart attack. And you can’t possibly compare how the Spencers behaved - they knew the rules of the game.

What rules of the game ?

The rules of how the royal family/aristocracy behave in public regardless of the hypocrisy in private

This is getting more and more like a storyline from the soaps. All it needs is Barbara Windsor to appear at the church and scream "You can't marry 'im!"

Except these are real people

The way millions behave in public, no rules of the game needed to invite family to a wedding, for divorced parents to walk together , not hypocrisy to behave with dignity in public even if you really want to batter hell out of each other, it’s what many do, grit their teeth and get on with it, it must be unerving knowing the world and it’s dog is watching but it is only for a few hours . I am sure Francis Shand Kyde hated Charles Spencer but she walked into church with him , sat wuth him through the service, stood on the balcony for a few minutes, the world doesn’t see the rest

Anniebach, we often disagree about the RF, especially about Dianna but, I agree with your comments above. I too am Spartacus, in making the best of relatives or friends invited to weddings, who in truth I'd rather not hang out with. it's life isn't it.

Iam, I just remembered, they will not even have to stand on the balcony . Walk out of Church together, stand on the steps , that’s it. No photographer. No reception, no carriage ride. I am sure they have been visited, had all explained to them, video’s of the Church etc shown to them. Many have to grit their teeth and mix with family they don’t like .

But the Markles are American , this is a royal wedding, surely Harry should have met Mr M and the firm should have offered him support? But tbf we won’t know the truth will we ever about what’s gone on behind the scenes - I just feel sorry for Mr M because of the way that awful rag the DM has behaved towards him - my view is that the DM is using him as a proxy attack on MM because fundamentally they are a racist xenophobic disgrace

KP has responded to the reports the feather may not attend and asked for respect and understanding .

I wonder if they showed respect and understanding themselves?

Good grief, both are over thirty, surely they have the sense to send people over to discuss everything with those who are going.

Who will escort her Church, no uncles or brothers invited, expect her mother will

Now I am wondering if he always had had no intention of attending the wedding.

It always had seemed odd to me that he and Harry had never met, although they had, I believe spoken on the phone.

Poor Meghan. We can’t pick our parents.
