Thomas distraught at prospect of never seeing his girl again

-

THOMAS Markle is said to be “heartbroke­n” at his growing estrangeme­nt from daughter Meghan since he missed her fairytale wedding to Prince Harry.

The Duchess of Sussex’s ailing dad fears they may not “ever be together again” and believes the royal couple are now “shot” of him.

Bu,t while he feels increasing­ly distanced from Meghan, the retired lighting director met up with his son Tom Jr for the first time in more than four years over the weekend.

The reunion will pour more pressure on the former actress to travel from Kensington Palace to her dad’s home in Mexico to check on his health. A source said: “Thomas is heart- BY CHRISTOPHE­R BUCKTIN broken. He is at a complete loss as to why he has been excluded.”

Thomas, 71, has been telling friends: “I haven’t talked to Meghan and Harry for a long time. I think they’re shot of me now.”

His despair comes after he failed to attend the royal wedding in May.

He suffered heart palpitatio­ns and had emergency surgery shortly after being exposed for faking paparazzi pictures for cash.

He then appeared on Good Morning Britain two weeks ago and broke royal protocol by revealing his new son-in-law’s views on Brexit and Donald Trump.

Thomas now fears Meghan will never visit him in Mexico, saying: “I don’t know if she’ll visit. I told her not to come and visit when I was in hospital. I think that relationsh­ip is lost now.”

Only last week, Thomas voiced his irritation Donald Trump will meet the Queen next week when he has not had the chance.

He said: “If the Queen is willing to meet our arrogant, ignorant, and insensitiv­e president she has no excuse not to meet me, I’m nowhere near as bad.” Harry and Meghan’s wedding on May 19
