- Mr Markle hopes to visit Britain soon but hasn’t talked with royals about it
Thomas Markle claims he’s been snubbed by the royal family in favour of ‘arrogant and insensitive’ U.S. President Donald Trump.
The 73-year-old said he hadn’t talked to his daughter Meghan or anyone from Kensington Palace since his explosive Good Morning Britain interview.
He accused the royals of giving him the cold shoulder in response to last week’s interview and felt he’d been put in the ‘penalty box’.

Mr Markle was particularly unhappy President Trump would meet the Queen, Meghan’s grandmother-in-law before he did.
‘If the Queen is willing to meet our arrogant and insensitive president she has no excuse not to meet me, I’m nowhere near as bad.’ he told TMZ.
The U.S. President lands in London next month where his is scheduled to meet Her Majesty and hold talks with Prime Minister Theresa May.
The Duchess of Sussex has perhaps been too busy to call her father much since her marriage to Prince Harry last month.

In the week since his tell-all she’s attended the Royal Ascot races and a high society wedding among other engagements.
Mr Markle was also upset to not receive and Father’s Day card from his daughter on Sunday, and was anxious to discuss plans to visit the newlyweds.
‘There has been nothing from the palaces, which he is surprised about. He just hopes the interview hasn’t affected things,’ a source told The Sun.
‘He wanted to discuss travelling to the UK, or the couple visiting him. He still hasn’t met Harry, and is desperate for it to happen.’
