Will they try to get it reopened as the NotW did in the Jeffrey Archer case?

Hope so. There’s potentially a general theme emerging of HaM and perverting the course of justice.

Starryfifty · Today 18:48

Have HAM released the November official engagements yet?

Horses7 · Today 18:43

No because she cut him out of her life just before the wedding (long before any letters started arriving) and I believe she had no intention of him being at her wedding - she didn’t go visit him and H didn’t even meet him!!
He didn’t fit what she wanted to become.
People who say she cut him out of her life to protect her children are about 18 months out of date - when dealing with HaM it pays to keep an eye of the actual detailed facts NOT what HaM want you to believe!
Of course she obviously believed what TM’s alcoholic ex wife wrote (divorced 1975) even though this wife left both her children with him during their childhood. MM believed it all without hearing her Dad’s side of the story. TM was already long gone in MM eyes.

That was a bit of sarcasm of what she probably wants us to believe!

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 wouldn't be surprised if M never mentioned it to him.

Maybe the only truth within this sordid situation is Harry didn't know until now, or maybe when the Dec 2025 letter was written.

The Met letter mentioned security of DOS - this played into the security paranoia Harry has and he became even more fixated about her security.

And unfortunately gives him an excuse to bang on about security again

She must have said something to him though about why it wasn’t a good idea for him to meet her ‘dear daddy’? I’m intrigued as to what crap she came up with to manipulate H from 2016 onwards, given she was eating Thanksgiving dinner with her daddy in Nov 2016.

SiegfriedSassoon · Today 18:59

Is Thomas Markle Snr a man of means? Doe he have property to leave when he dies? Just wondering if Samantha has a financial motive for staying loyal to her dad. Or perhaps she's signed a NDA previously.

I imagine the cosy markle-ragland 2016 Thanksgiving was entirely engineered (forced) by Meghan as part of the rosy family girl image she was portraying to Harry at the time.

Talking of grubby! ..some YouTube bloke called mark Dolan has a retired met chief police detective called Mike Neville on his show..apparently he has spoken to detectives who have seen the 2019 letter and ( deep breath) it claims that markle snr abused his daughter Samantha ! …..what the hell is going on? …how can this be true or even remotely legal to release this even on the internet???
this has to be crap right?

That is very stupid of the retired Met guy. He just got his Met friends into trouble.

There is investigation going on. The alleged writer is dead, and Samantha Markle is currently defending her father.

Mark Dolan, the Met, the Sun, and HAM have all been markled. You cannot run around accusing people of crimes unless they have been found guilty in a court of law. Once again this is a witch hunt.

It’s all so sordid …,it makes you wish we could go back in time to discuss the merching and ridiculous comments Harry makes!

I don’t really feel sorry for him, but Harry really has got his life into an unholy mess since meeting Meghan. Starting with getting engaged before meeting any members of her family (not sure if he’d met Doria at that point).
You don’t have to like and get on with your in-laws, but to never meet them is weird. And his life has just got weirder and weirder from that point onwards.
I wonder if, when he’s alone with his thoughts, he ever ponders what he got himself into.

I got the impression TMSnr was skint hence the crowd funder that ‘Lady C’ organised, but who knows?

BemusedAmerican · Today 19:03

TM Sr is in a nursing home and will presumably have to pay for lawyers. Lady C started a GoFundMe for him. The only thing Samantha may inherit, as far as I can tell, is a lucrative tell all book contract about her dysfunctional family.

Very difficult to have sympathy for him. His latest turd, GQ interview shows exactly what he is. An arrogant, entitled, nasty little man

As always at this time of night I have to disappear! Because it’s obvious that things will happen, I have taken the precaution, however don’t feel the need to post until this one is full!

Well, well, well, this is a video Thomas Jnr posted 3 months ago - 30th June 2026.

He apparently initially reported the CSA stash to US authorities on 10th July 2026.

He's obviously off his head and it's a hard watch (this is the guy the Sun is painting as the 'whistleblower') but it seems errrr......... 'coincidental'.

It's highly unlikely he's speaking to Meghan and Harry of course but he's seems to be acting something out.

Talking about not wanting to be paid in 'flower sprinkles' to make her look good to the public!

Onebigsham · Today 19:20

I've just been reminded that Meghan was so desperate to get in with Balenciaga she basically crashed their Paris show. A brand that had been accused of using CSA-like imagery/bondage/court transcripts on porn cases in its marketing of children's products. Her bestie, Missan Harriman, was really angry about that campaign and said he was disappointed many of his friends hadn't boycotted it (one of the only times he's said anything sensible). MM can't claim she knew nothing about it. But in the light of what was going on in her own immediate family - wow! WTF was she thinking?

CrocsNotDocs · Today 19:23

Here we go again. Meghan set to host Australia’s Junior Master Chef. What have we Aussies done to deserve 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.

Yes and there was the thanksgiving in Nov 2016 with Doria and Thomas, when she was still secretly dating Harry I think, apparently that was the first time she had seen her father in years and was the very last time time she ever saw him.

It’s like she was trying to fake a happy family for Harry’s benefit.

Maybe he didn't know about any of this and he's recently found out himself.

Could have been another reason for dash back to the UK? Thomas Jnr apparently informed US authorities of the Philippines stash on July 10th, HAM come back to the UK at the end of August.

There has no mention in statements of Harry seeing the 2019 letter and the recent statement was only from Meghan.

I wonder if they felt M might be more protected if she was in the UK when the news broke? Because of the Palace?

To be fair the previous person who left and was replaced by Meghans pal was responsible for the perverse campaign! ….however k Kardashian got much criticism but Meghan hardly any so ….🤔🤷‍♀️

Hard to say. Brontë Coy is news.com.au’s official royal reporter and she has had pro-Sussex breaking news before.
