How can Meghan the humanitarian cold shoulder her old dad?
MEGHAN Markle has had a bit of a trying week.
It began with yet another newspaper interview where her dear old dad was once again bemoaning how his now Duchess daughter has cut him out her life entirely.
Then, after Meghan had appeared at a fashion awards ‘do’ mid-week, she was mocked for posing on stage clasping her burgeoning baby bump like it was a bowling ball.
True, the pics were a bit daft looking. But Meghan isn’t the first pregnant woman so thrilled with her condition that she feels it necessary to highlight that to all and sundry.
The Earth Mother posturing is a bit at odds right now though with her Ice Maiden alter ego — the unforgiving daughter determined to so comprehensively cold-shoulder her da. There’s a bit of a mixed message there.
So given that this is the season of goodwill it might be a timely and kindly gesture for Meghan to get in touch with her father again.
A smarter one too than maintaining the current stand-off. Not just because that ongoing stand-off encourages Thomas Markle to give even more interviews.
But because it makes Meghan herself look bad.
It’s not those odd baby bump pictures that people see as most strange. It’s how this supposed humanitarian who hugs all round her continues to turn her back so determinedly on her own old da.
