Meghan Markle's Father Says He's Changed His Mind and Will Walk Her Down the Aisle After All
People ^ | 33 minutes ago

Meghan Markle‘s father may be walking her down the aisle after all.

Thomas Markle said he has changed his mind after speaking to his daughter and has decided to travel to Windsor and to attend Meghan and Prince Harry‘s wedding.

However, Thomas says this is all contingent on his doctor’s approval and that he is back in the hospital after reportedly suffering a heart attack last week.

Thomas says that Meghan attempted to call him yesterday, but that he was not near his phone to answer the call. She then sent him a text message, in which he says that she said that she loved him and was worried about him and how he was feeling. He says that Meghan also told him that she was not angry that he coordinated with a photographer to stage photoshoots ahead of the wedding, a decision Thomas now says was “stupid.”

“I hate the idea of missing one of the greatest moments in history and walking my daughter down the aisle,” he said. “Of course I’d walk her down the aisle. This is a historic moment. I’d like to be a part of history.”

Thomas also spoke of his other daughter, Samantha Markle, who has frequently spoken out about half-sister Meghan throughout Meghan’s relationship with Harry. He said the two women are not close. A source previously told PEOPLE that Meghan has never had much of a relationship with Samantha or her half-brother, Thomas Markle Jr.

“Meghan has no relationship with her half-siblings, nor has she ever had one,” the source says. “They were out of the house by the time she was born."

tmz says the dad is back in hospital for chest pains, what if he passes?

Would they postpone the wedding? Or is royalty like show business--the show must go on?

The second Daddy pic in the row looks just American Picker Frank, now also known as wrong-way Frank.

Earlier this year, Frank was DWI and caught going the wrong way on I-80 just west of Davenport/Bettedorf. Oops.

I say this whole “heart attack” schtick is yet another way for this 2 bit idiot father to get some attention.

It pays to be able to afford a stylist for hair and make up. You might not recognize her without it

This royal wedding looks like a total cluster.

Is there anyplace on FR where people are placing bets on how long this marriage will last? I am thinking 2 yrs, tops.

I don't think this girl has any idea of what she is getting into. And, this drama over the father will he/won't he walk her down the aisle, is just the beginning. Harry is going to learn that actresses like drama.

He doesn’t look like a person who takes care of himself.

The Queen looks healthier than her son Charles.

Ok, true.

Still you have to have something to work with to begin with.

If she is concerned for his health, why is she still pressing him to walk her down the aisle? If a person has access to lots of money and connections to care facilities all over the world, then you and your staff come up with some options that are acceptable to a reclusive, ailing parent, and you get them into secluded, private care right away and pay all the bills. Why Markle and Harry didn’t do this months ago I have no idea. They know what the paparazzi is like, but they seem to be (1) too self-absorbed and self-centered to think about the needs of others; (2) dumb as rocks, who can’t see beyond the ends of their noses regarding what was likely to happen to Dad Markle; or (3) both.

Maybe he was trying to bundle some items?

Remember “ I wanna marry Harry” tv show 2014?

She has his facial structure. Hard to see under his flab, but the shape of the eye sockets, forehead, nose and chin are all similar.

Could it possibly be true that the future queen of England’s father is an attention ho?
