Meghan, the Duchess of Sussex’s estanged father Thomas Markle Snr. has given a scathing verdict of her new cooking show, and has also responded to the bombshell revelation that she no longer goes by the name ‘Meghan Markle’
Thomas Markle Snr, the estranged father ofMeghan, Duchess of Sussex, has opened up about his daughter’s decision to put aside her maiden name of Markle.
Even though it’s been nearly seven years since she walked down the aisle at Windsor’s St George’s Chapel, the Duchess is still often referred to by fans as simply ‘Meghan Markle’ – but behind closed doors, this apparently isn’t the case.
In the second episode of her new Netflix show, With Love, Meghan, the 43-year-old could be seen chatting away about fast food with actress Mindy Kaling, who remarked: “People wouldn’t believe that Meghan Markle ate at Jack in the Box.”
Gently correcting The Office US star, Meghan revealed: “It’s so funny, too, that you keep saying Meghan Markle. You know I’m Sussex now. You have kids, and you go, ‘no I share my name with my children’…I didn’t know how meaningful it would be to me, but it just means so much to go ‘this is our family name, our little family name’.”
Many fans struggled to get their heads around the idea of ‘Meghan Sussex’, and this includes dad Thomas, whose relationship with his famous daughter has been strained since around the time of her May 2018 wedding.
