Lady Colin Campbell has set up a fundraiser (via GoFundMe) for Thomas Markle’s 80th birthday. It’s already nearing £25,000 and has surpassed its £10,000 target 😮

'Lady Colin Campbell 'who lives off her ex husbands name despite being married to him for only 9 months in the 1970s is a bigger grifting piece of work than the dad from hell that is Thomas Markle.

The daft old bat is nothing but am attention seeking hate monger.

Bravo! Couldn't have put it better myself!

Thomas Markle would not have been 'abandoned' had he not sold a private letter from his daughter to the press. That was a dreadful thing to do. I had some sympathy for him (still do as he is an old, sick man), as he was initially manipulated by the media. Meghan and Harry were still wanting him in their lives at that stage, reached out their hands and offered to fly him out to escape all the media, but he lied to them and then went too far with that letter.

That’s certainly the narrative Meghan and Harry want people to believe. However, they’ve both been revealed in the courts to be happy to lie to promote their desired narratives, so it may not be the whole story.

(My own personal view is that Meghan wrote the letter to her father to set out the story she wanted to be made known, fully intending it to be published. I thought this before we knew from her text messages to Jason Knauff that she had specifically drafted it mindful that it may become public, and added specific phrases to tug on a reader’s heartstrings - that evidence did tend to confirm my opinion. She probably expected Thomas Markle to release it to the press immediately as he’d be so angry at what it said. Unfortunately however, he didn’t. So after getting tired of waiting she constructed the “Five friends independently contacted People magazine” story, in which they all conveniently knew and spoke about the details of this private letter to her father. And she waited to see if that would provoke him to action. And so it finally did).

You don’t know the Sussexes.
You’ll never meet them.
Yet you speak as though you’re the final authority on them — exactly like Lady CC and Angela Levin, who make their livings off hating the Sussexes.
Meghan and Harry have absolutely no effect on your life whatsoever. They don’t know you either.
Lighten up. Take up needlepoint or badminton or swimming — or anything that doesn’t involve hating complete strangers.
Please.

Hating complete strangers?? There is no hate in Serenester’s post. She simply lay out the facts and gave a personal opinion.

Thomas Markle held onto the letter for 6 months. He was not the one, who first leaked the existence or the contents to the press. It was five of Meghan’s friends, who spoke to the media and divulged the existence of the letter, painting him in a terrible light. At this stage, he gave parts of the letter to the press to defend himself. And it wasn’t the letter, which caused him to be cut off. It was him talking to the press when he was being fitted for his suit just prior to the wedding. Samantha Markle said she suggested he do this. It doesn’t seem as if any malice was intended at the time. In response, Meghan cut him off despite him being desperately ill in hospital having suffered a heart attack due to the stress of the situation. https://abcnews.go.com/GMA/Culture/meghan-markles-dad-accused-staging-photos-paparazzi/story?id=55144447
