Meghan Markle’s dad blasts Queen over planned meeting with Donald Trump

Meghan Markle’s dad has lashed out at the Queen over her mooted meeting with US president Donald Trump, saying he’s annoyed he still hasn’t been introduced to the British monarch.

Thomas Markle Sr lashed out after it emerged that Trump was due to meet Her Majesty on his official visit to Britain next month, reports The Sun.

Speaking to TMZ, he said: 

If the Queen is willing to meet our arrogant and insensitive president she has no excuse not to meet me, I’m nowhere near as bad.

His extraordinary outburst is sure to cloud his car crash relationship with the royal family even further after the staged paparazzi pictures scandal and last week’s bombshell TV interview.

Markle, who lives in Mexico, feared the Queen froze him out after he reportedly raked in $13,000 for speaking to British morning chat show, Good Morning Britain.

The television chat was the first time Markle had publicly spoken since Meghan wed Prince Harry on May 19.

Royal insiders, who were given no notice of the interview, were said to be fuming as he discussed politics and the chances of Meghan and Harry having children. And one royal expert revealed the Queen would also have been “very angry”.

Angela Levin, a royal commentator and a biographer of Prince Harry told Channel 5 in the UK that even Meghan would have been upset by the interview.

Ms Levin said:

I think the Queen will be very angry. She is absolutely the model of the stiff upper lip and not saying anything that is too political.

In another example of how the royals have been unable to control his comments, Markle said on the show how he was not “wowed” by Prince Harry.

When asked how he felt about the wedding, Markle said: “This is my daughter. My daughter is certainly a prize for him as well.”
