Here’s something heartwarming—or at least it’s supposed to be. According to insiders, Meghan Markle has extended an invitation to her father, Thomas Markle Sr., for her highly anticipated royal wedding to Prince Harry. Now, here’s the kicker: despite never having set foot in England and not meeting his future son-in-law yet, Thomas is reportedly thrilled about the invite. The man knows how to roll with the punches, doesn’t he?
A Father’s Joy Amidst Challenges
“Thomas Markle Sr. is over the moon to be by his daughter’s side on the day she becomes a princess—even if it means battling his inner demons to get there,” a source close to the family revealed to The Sun. The article goes on to describe the challenges Thomas might face, particularly the daunting glare of the world’s media spotlight. Despite this, the source emphasized, “Nothing will stop him from walking Meghan down the aisle for the big day.” Interestingly, the publication also notes that Thomas leads a quiet, almost reclusive life in Mexico. Imagine stepping out of that world and into the chaos of Buckingham Palace!
Previous Family Plans
It was earlier reported that both Thomas and Meghan’s mom, Doria Ragland, were planning to travel to the UK for their daughter’s baptism in early March. However, if you check the guest list, neither of them seems to have made an appearance. Could this be a sign of things to come, or was it simply a scheduling issue? Only time will tell.

The Drama with Samantha Grant
Let’s not forget about the drama involving Meghan’s half-sister, Samantha Grant. According to Samantha, she wasn’t even invited to the royal wedding, which has sparked quite a bit of controversy. In a rather heated social media post, Samantha claimed that their father, Thomas, would indeed walk Meghan down the aisle, contradicting earlier reports that suggested Doria would take on the role. Samantha’s tweet read, “The muck about Doria walking Meg down the aisle is NOT true. Our father will walk her down the aisle.” It seems like family dynamics are as complex as ever, even in the world of royalty.

Meghan’s Vision for the Wedding
Here’s the really sweet part: Meghan reportedly wants her dad to walk her down the aisle, regardless of any drama or family tensions. “She’s told Harry that she wants her dad to walk her down the aisle. Harry, being the supportive partner that he is, is totally on board with whatever Meghan desires, even if the palace might not be thrilled,” a source told Life & Style. It’s clear that Meghan and Harry are committed to making this day special, no matter what.
