Her friends took time out of their busy days to tell People he gave her the “cold shoulder” before her wedding. But their spin is now being refuted with a letter written by Thomas to Meghan. Oopsie.
In it Markle actually apologized to Meghan and Harry because his doctors ordered him not to fly after experiencing heart problems, meaning he missed their wedding.

The letter from Thomas to Meghan has plenty of “love you”s, and he told her despite his heart problem, “if you really need me I will come.”
Eight days before the wedding, Thomas texted her, “I’m getting excited, it’s all so close now, I can’t wait to walk you down the aisle.”
The messages were read out in court in a lawsuit Meghan herself brought on.

Lawyer Andrew Caldecott represents Meghan’s target, Associated Newspapers, and he stated Thomas’s communications presented, “a completely different picture,” to the, “never called, never texted, just ignored her,” version of events that Meghan’s friends provided to People. Double oopsie. To be fair these friends, apparently doing Meghan’s bidding in trying to paint her dad as a fiend (purely speculative), could never have imagined they would one day be hauled into court to testify about the “truth bomb” they unloaded?
The lawyer maintains, Meghan and her posse made, “allegations of [Mr Markle] cruelly cold-shouldering her in the pre-wedding period, which were ‘demonstrably false or misleading in the light of the text messages.”

Specifically, Meghan’s friends claimed she had been “calling and texting” her father without response. The actual truth, according to Caldecott, was that “there are many texts from Mr. Markle… they are all affectionate and were abundant in the run-up to the wedding.”
When he was in the hospital the week before the wedding, he wrote, “Sorry about this. Love you guys.”
Then on May 16, he wrote, “Surgery went OK. Heart attack did some damage. But the doctor won’t allow me to fly so of course I’m sorry I can’t come. Love you and wish you the best of everything.”
Later he did what any loving parent would do, he put his child first, and wrote: “Who will give you away? I will come if you really need me. I’m sorry about this.”
