How do you find the 'better way' when the Royals, in such an elevated position, make it impossible?

Meghan is beginning to raise eyebrows and unfavourable press comments which may or may not be true so surely this would be a good time to build bridges with her father - whether or not he deserves it.

Oh yeah the Queen just gave him her number, I think not. I'd ignore him if I was Megan but I'm not and my dad would never have behaved like him.

I am sure that there are better ways to get in contact and build bridges with an "estranged" family member other than appeal on a national breakfast program.

I think he is being lead by his other daughter who seems to be very jealous of Megan.

I think you have described him to a T Cold and he wants to cosy in and get money out of her.

Has he said mean and nasty things about her?

Cold Mon 17-Dec-18 13:59:15

He has brought it on himself. I think that his constant public attempts to embarrass her into contacting him will never succeed. I find it disgusting the way he says really mean and nasty stuff about her and then claim he wants her to contact him and cries crocodile tears. I cannot comprehend a father doing that to his pregnant daughter.

I doubt that Meghan can ever trust him again as she knows that as soon as she does he will call one of the gossip sites that he has on speed dial and sell her out.

I do feel sorry for him...absolutely I do!!

I didn't feel at all sorry for him at the time of the wedding but I'm beginning to now.

Yet he was at her first wedding. Letters have been released written in 2015 , she addresses him as ‘darling daddy’

He should accept the fact he is no longer part of her life , very difficult to do but he has no choice

Would you contact your DD's MiL about your relationship with your DD I very much doubt it. I certainly wouldn't.
Do I believe what he says no, do I think he's after Meghan's money tchhmm tchhmm

Absolutely nothing!

What do we feel about his public appeal for contact with his daughter. He says he texts every day but has heard nothing from her since the wedding. Apparently he has contacted the Queen for her help.
