Still doesn’t explain why Harry never met TMsr .
They started dating in 2016 so he had 2 years to meet him and didn’t.,

I think she wanted to wave a magic wand so that the family conveniently disappeared before the wedding - heaven only knows what reasons she gave H as to why they were out of bounds but they they didn't fit her narrative.

Since when have we swung to believing a word that comes out of MM’s mouth.

Her contrived statement backs up my earlier points that she isn't going to throw her RF pension plan revenue stream under the bus at this time and she needs to keep PH out of the shit storm to max out any opportunities for royal fake glitter.

I would not assume that MM took a principled stance that any potentially pertinent information had to be shared with her spouse, let alone her in-laws.

They also knew damn well Thomas Snr wouldn't be extradited to face charges in the Philippines and would be deemed as having no capacity in the US due to dementia so there wouldn't be a trial at all.

All they needed was the 'story' and of such disgusting and shocking allegations that most will just read the headlines and take it as true which is what the media is heavily pushing it as.

Now we DEFINITELY know that Meghan could absolutely NOT reconcile with her father as she discovered he was a monster, she was in full lioness mode protecting her children, and we should feel deep shame we thought it was because she was a nasty, narcissistic viper who didn't want her fat old hillbilly dad cramping her style!

We feel terrible don't we?

You could be right.

In which case it might have been better to just maintain that stance?

Didn’t Megan, TMS and Doria spend Thanksgiving 2016 together?

But she cut off her father 7-8 months before the letter.

She gave interviews in blaming the press and rf for ruining the relationship with her father.

She also lied in her evidence to court in her 2021 court case when she sued over the letter - leaked by her 5 friends. Her barrister argued in court that the publisher had actively "harassed," "manipulated," and "exploited" Thomas Markle. Her legal team contended that the tabloid was responsible for "stirring up" and causing the breach between them. Meghan's successful case remained that the media's invasive practices directly exposed, exacerbated, and profited off her personal family anguish of losing the relationship with her father.

This is a totally different narrative that her choosing to cut contact after learning about CSA.

And how much did the Mail have to shell out to her for her costs? That looks very suspect now.

Yeah but there's a soft cutting off where you just don't bother calling or visiting. A hard cut off would be not inviting him to be at the wedding and give you away. Once HAM were engaged, it was expected that her dad - who she was on record gushing about - would do those things, which forced the issue.

I just went on the Sun website for first time ever and there was no mention of any Markle.
ETA: mentions on the DM site but far down and not headline grabbing style.

I think that's called 'crawling out of the woodwork for five minutes of fame.'

He had no business saying that, if true. So the Sun, the Markles and now retried police officers (allegedly) are interfering in investigations.

Not to mention that if Samantha is mentioned…it’s not anyone’s place to out the privacy of an alleged victim against their consent!!!

But why was Harry going around for years saying it was his fault that meghan was estranged from her dad due to the press intrusion? Its almost like he had no clue about any of this

I'm sure I have read that she had been nc with her father long before meeting Harry, once she managed to get the role on Suits she relocated to Canada and didn't bother with him, it seemed that he had served his purpose.

She posted a gushing tribute to her father on father's day in June 2016.

She "officially" started dating Harry a few weeks later in July 2016 after "officially" breaking things off with celebrity chef Cory Vitiello in May 2016 - however some books have stated that she was still living with Cory when she went on a date with Harry.

After she started dating Harry, Meghan celebrated Thanksgiving 2016 with both Thomas and Doria and wrote about it in the Tig

She had invited her father to her 2018 wedding

Generally speaking it’s not considered good form to thrust somebody into the global limelight as an alleged victim of child sexual abuse by their own parent’s hand without giving them a head’s up.

At best, it is a false accusation where you are used as a weapon to hurt your parent which fucks with your head for decades. Partially if it is your other parent doing the alleging.

At worst it did happen and now the whole world knows about it. Your greatest pain is now gossip fodder for decades to come.

I just seen this on Reddit.

Everyday, it just gets worse

Mark says he believes Meg may have dismissed the claims as malicious and that’s why the Met never made any referrals.

And for HAM it removed a potential obstacle to reconciliation with the RF and all the benefits that would bring. The obstacle being that commenters were saying that KC3 wanted to see them reconcile with TMSr first, as a demonstration of a true change of heart.

A stash of child porn is the excuse she needed to remove the reconcile-with-TMSr obstacle. Although, ironically, the way she has handled the situation has demonstrated exactly why there will be no reconciliation with the RF.

Yes I think the good ship Reconciliation has truly sailed. I saw William’s interview about Kevin Sinfield this morning. He spoke about Kevin as someone who was “quiet” and didn’t seek the limelight, yet got things done and is a great leader. He also talked about this as a lesson to those who “think it is all about them” and always seek to self publicise. It was meant as a general comment, but there was also a possibility that he was referring to those closer to home. Even if he wasn’t, it was clear that he is not in any way impressed by those who seek to “do good” as a publicity exercise or to draw attention to themselves. All qualities that the Sussexes have in spades

According to TMsr he never received an actual invitation while Doria received a hand delivered scroll .,
