London - Meghan Markle's father said on
Monday that he hoped Queen Elizabeth would intercede to end his
estrangement from his daughter, the wife of Britain's Prince
Harry.
"I would appreciate anything she can do and I would think
that she would want to resolve the family problems," Thomas
Markle said of Queen Elizabeth in an interview aired live on ITV.
"All families, royal or otherwise, are the same and they
should all be together certainly around the holidays," Markle
said.
Markle said that Meghan had not sent him a Christmas card
but that he was hopeful that they could at some time build their
relationship.
