‘Unseen videos’ of Meghan in dad’s new documentary

MEGHAN Markle’s father Thomas is preparing to make a documentary about his life, he revealed yesterday.

Mr Markle, 76, said the film would feature previously unseen home videos and photographs of Meghan.

Meghan, 39, has not seen her father since before her wedding to Prince Harry. Mr Markle, a retired Hollywood lighting director, told The Sun on Sunday of the documentary: ‘It begins with my life, my family, my love of theatre and television and how I got there. Then my life with Meghan, growing up, her school days until she went off to college, and when her career began.

‘We had a good life together, up through her first marriage and her move to Canada. Then a new story begins. It’s kind of like, “What happened to my baby girl?”.’

Mr Markle, who lives in Mexico, said he hoped the film could be ready by the end of the year. In a British TV documentary last year, Mr Markle detailed the breakdown of his relationship with his daughter.

Meghan lived with her father between the ages of 11 and 18 and Mr Markle claimed he paid her school fees and college tuition. But he said their relationship soured after he was unable to attend her wedding in 2018 after he had emergency heart surgery.

Harry, 36, and Meghan have signed contracts to produce programmes for Netflix and podcasts for Spotify as part of their new life in Los Angeles.
