"...it is claimed," The London Times reports in "Meghan ‘no longer has’ her father Thomas Markle’s phone number/The Duchess of Sussex is believed to have lost or deleted her father’s number as she claimed to have contacted him by email after his ‘life-or-death’ surgery."
Hilariously... I mean sadly... unbelievable, for about 10 reasons, including the way the "contacts" on your phone hang on steadfastly until you delete them. I just checked mine, and I see names of people I haven't phoned since the '00s. Maybe Meghan weeds hers out more assiduously than I do, but still... deleting your father's name?
"In recent days Meghan has continued promoting the Christmas special of her Netflix show... in which she talks about a Christmas tree encapsulating a 'family’s story.' In a video posted to... Instagram she is seen making a homemade advert [sic] calendar... and saying 'thank you so … honestly so, so much' to the television crew... Markle is yet to meet his grandchildren... although he did receive a call asking for his daughter’s hand in marriage...."
Now about that advent calendar:

She'd be in my phone under Insufferable.
If you open the door to criticizing other people's families, it's fair to open yourself up to other people commenting on yours...
Just sayin.
Shouldn't you be out running around invading REAL people's privacy by photographing them in public? Tell us who Chris fucked last night, or how Jonny boy's love life is faring of late?
Tell us about your original family members? How's Richard's
"work" coming on? Did he meet an new professor wife and has he sired more sons?
Is your sleepyhead little boy still dreaming about the boys of summer with the blanket snugly pulled up to his chin? Hmm.
Leave her alone.
She's a woman making homemade advent calendar for her kids... why mock that? (because she's younger and prettier than you, ann?)
Your HATE blog has become insufferable.
Try to find a new hobby to break out of your dirty madison town rut? I get it... the students are gone and you have nobody to prey on for attention.
Tell us about how your frank sinatra daddy died?
Drink himself to death?
Rich people problems.
Do hospital rooms not have phones anymore?
i'd say, you'd (*I'D*) be much more likely to delete the name of someone like a father (that you HATE), then the name of someone you hadn't thought of since the turn of the century.
I'm saying having "lost" someone's phone could be intentional
Maybe it actually is an "advert" calendar. They are probably running low on ready cash, and selling adverts could be a way to raise a bit of money for the holidays. Sort of a side gig.
We can have some dark fun imagining their phone conversation.
I had a SIM card fail on my cell phone a couple years ago and I'll be the first to testify that the "contacts" on your phone DO NOT necessarily hang on steadfastly until you delete them.
Harry bombed on Colbert's show.
She strikes me as the sort of insufferable B- level celeb who has "people" who can do things like find phone numbers. Hmm, where do these "people" actually come from. Do they attend the Kato Kaelin School of Gopherdom then start out with entry level patrons before moving up in the flunky world?
Every time she pops up in the media, she just seems to be a really horrible person.
Deleting one’s father’s phone number in and by itself is not necessary a bad thing. Maybe her father did terrible things to her and she was right to break off contact.
But if that was the case, she wouldn’t pretend to have lost his number. She would just wish him well.
It seems to me she deleted his number for petty reasons and now she regrets her actions.
Anyone know her best with her father? Am I right in my guesses?
*beef not best
How did she know he’d had surgery?
Her father, Thomas Markle has a Wikipedia page. She could start there. A quick search turned up this 2024 article online:
Where Is Thomas Now?
Thomas Markle currently lives in Rosarito, Mexico. In May 2022, he was hospitalised after suffering a stroke.
Sounds like this "I can't find my father" thing is to add a bit of drama to her story.
I'm seeing that he lives in the Philippines now. Can't blame her for not rushing to the bedside and bringing the children when he's in the Philippines. That was the better excuse.
But why not just make the phone call?
But she knows him better. Perhaps there's reason to think he's an attention whore, cutting off his foot like that.
According to the British press, her beef with her father was that he gave interviews to the press for money without permission from the Royals when she was engaged to Harry.
Well, this will get Meghan a little more attention. She needs it to survive.
These people can't go away soon enough.

Mind your business, ann.
You've got enough family to fret over, no?
Shouldn't you be reading/listening to Olyvia's book that dropped? Didn't she remind you of a young you -- you said you'd be an attention whore too, writing breathlessly about your affairs if the price were right, no? Check the record, but I think you were all excited/all in to read that memoir until others said it wasn't cool...
It's never to late to get a life of your own and stop cutting down other people to draw hateful old men to your blog to help... "support your work". Lol.
Silly girl...

You and the meade's both.
Why not dissect our own family dramas?
I'm curious what meade's (first) wife is up to these days myself... Let's dump on that bitch?

It's sad what the "enquiring minds" on this blog want to know about. Tabloid fodder is what this blog has become... lol.
Will the adult Lillibet call her mother if her elderly mother were ill? What goes around comes around.
You know when you go through your contacts and see a name that you don't even remember who it is? It was probably like that.
I guess that means that Megan's father is in that place 'away from the cameras'. But who needs a phone call, when he can read the article himself?
I love the Freudian slip of "Avert" Calendar for Advent Calendar.
If I was Megan I would've "lost" his phone number too. God, what a trashy family. How this guy gets to bop around from the USA to Mexico to the Philippines is beyond me.
The current Royal family should be gotten rid of and the UK should ask some Royal Dane or Norwegian to come over and be their Queen. They did it before and they need to do it again. Between Prince Harry and Prince Andrew and all the other losers - they're a PR disaster.
I don’t know why I am a sucker for Meghan posts. I guess it’s the slow motion train wreck. I can’t believe she has kept the grift up this long.

The apple doesn't fall far from the tree?
Mexico, the Philippines - what's this guy running from?
Bonehead Markle.
Dad was "typical white person," thus forgettable.
To understand Harry and Meghan, just think of what it would be like if Winnie the Pooh or Paddington Bear got married.
Go read the history of George I. The weirdness and sexual problems of the Hanovrians runs deep.
Nice to live in a world where gossipy items like this seem important to so many . . . and there's hamburger all over the highway in Mystic, Connecticut.
Please make it stop…
I'm more repulsed by Billy Bush..."hot mics"? What a douchebag. The Markles may be poor White trash, but the Bushes are rich, wicked garbage.

What's not to believe. She's black...or partly.
“Mexico, the Philippines - what's this guy running from?”
Toilet paper?
Just kiddin’…
She doesn't know a single person who knows where the hospital is or his phone number!?
There are people who I would lose touch with if I somehow lost my contact list, but family members are not among them.
Don Henley made millions from this social obsession
Dirty little secrets
Dirty little lies
We got our dirty little fingers
In everybody's pie
We love to cut you down to size
We love dirty laundry
We can do the innuendo
We can dance and sing
When it's said and done
We haven't told you a thing
We all know that crap is king
Give us dirty laundry
I don't Harry or Meghan can "win" anymore in the PR space. They got heel-turned and everything they try to do to fix that gets framed poorly. It's one of those things that they just need to disappear for a half decade or so.
Is she still a duchess? I thought they abandoned all that.
Meghan can easily turn to one of her many staff and order, "Find me the number and email of my father!.
The fact she did not do so is telling.
There’s an online utility called www.whitepages.com and it functions like the phone company directory of the same name from the days of my long ago youth. You enter a name and an address and it gives you the phone number(s).
Megan and Harry are the living embodiment of stupid.
Gee, given that Harry has army of high-priced "privacy" attorneys on speed-dial, given that Megan establishes serial number of new businesses, you'd think their attorneys could retrieve daddy's phone number within the hour. These folks can't help looking foolish, again and again. Sometimes, it's better to "no comment" your way through an embarrassing question, rather than responding with a ridiculous excuse.
No siblings? No mother? Father has no living siblings?
Meghan is either incompetent, or a liar
Her beef was likely manufactured by Megs. Allegedly, a pap that she'd dealt with before got/paid Mr. Markle to do some staged photos before the wedding. She didn't want him near the RF correcting the lies she told about herself and her family is the consensus motive among professional Meghan haters. Plus he's fat. His other two children are trainwrecks, too, which doesn't reflect well on him or Megs.
Father has no living siblings?
His diplomat brother, who got her an internship in Argentina but wasn't invited to the wedding, is dead. Her half brother was in the Philippines with him.
He should have taken Ozempic before diabetes made his foot go bad (I assume that's the problem), but Hollywood is sucking up the West Coast's supply.
Cluster B. Best advice is to avoid them. Don't make eye contact.
I would not take anything this kooky actress says at face value.

Actually, there is someone with a very legitimate claim to the throne waiting in the wings: Franz von Bayern, head of the House of Wittelsbach, and pretender to the (defunct) dukedom of Bavaria. He is also the heir to the Stuart kings of England and thus to the Jacobite succession that was abolished after the Glorious Revolution of 1688 deposed James II, the last Catholic King of England. He's quite old but his brother, niece, and a 30-year-old great-nephew are also in the line of succession and presumably available for the job. The great-nephew is also heir apparent to the Principality of Liechtenstein, and was actually born in London.
I'm getting confusing between Megan and Kamala Daddy issues
Why European royals only don't
Pakistan nawab's also qualify
"Hello Dad, it's me, Meghan"
"Who?"
Shorter Markle: Honest! I ran outta gas. I had a flat tire. I didn't have enough money for cab fare. My tux didn't come back from the cleaners. An old friend came in from outta town. Someone stole my car. There was an earthquake, a terrible flood, locusts! It wasn't my fault! I swear to God!
"Meghan has struggled to contact her father after his life-saving surgery because she has lost his phone number and he has stopped using his email address..."
The struggle is real.
