Meghan Markle Forced To Stay Quiet About Her Father Thomas Markle Sr.?

So, is this what she meant by not being able to reclaim her voice? That’s what a lot of royalists on both sides of the pond can’t help but wonder when it comes to Meghan Markle.

Key Takeaways

• Meghan Markle reportedly learned of troubling allegations about her father years ago
• Questions remain about why Meghan did not speak out publicly
• Thomas Markle’s 2018 paparazzi scandal caused a family rift
• New reports raise questions about what the Palace knew
• Thomas has denied the allegations, which remain unproven

Meghan Markle Forced To Stay Quiet About Her Father Thomas Markle Sr.?

That’s because there’s a new report that suggests the Duchess of Sussex certainly did want to speak out when she first learned about allegations concerning her father, Thomas Markle Sr., when she received a letter about them in late 2018 or early 2019.

But for some reason or another, Meghan was reportedly told to stay quiet.

This was around the same time that she and Prince Harry got married at Windsor Castle.

Thomas was supposed to make it to the wedding, but had a falling out with his daughter after he was caught working with the paparazzi to stage a fake photoshoot of himself getting ready for the royal wedding.

It was later reported that Thomas suffered heart problems and had to spend that weekend at a hospital in Mexico.

However, it seems like there was more to the story.

It was reported last month that allegedly illegal photos were found in Thomas Markle’s home in the Philippines.

Thomas has denied the allegations, which remain unproven.

What’s Next For The Duchess Of Sussex?

Meghan suggested that she might have known about the allegations concerning her father long before anyone else, and some believe that’s why she’s kept her two children, Archie and Lilibet, away from their grandfather.

And now the Daily Mail suggests that if Meghan Markle knew about the allegations involving her father, there’s a very good chance that the royal family knew about them, too.

One source close to the situation even put it this way: “It is a conundrum that has given rise to all manner of speculation, and has led some to question if there could have been a ‘nothing-to-see-here’ type of cover-up back in 2019, either by the police or even, God forbid, the Palace.”

To make matters worse, a lot of royalists believe that it’s going to be very hard for Meghan Markle to move past this “trashy” scandal, as there’s a good chance that the allegations involving her father might have damaged her reputation.

So far, Buckingham Palace has not made any comments about the matter, although at this point it’s doubtful that anything will be said.

Watch this space, as we have a feeling there is much more to come.

Annemarie’s Take

There are still plenty of unanswered questions about what Meghan knew and when she knew it.

But until more facts come out, I don’t think anyone can say for certain what the Palace knew or whether Meghan was told to stay quiet.
