That creative fist-waving gesture was courtesy of 77-year-old Thomas Markle during his recent appearance on Good morning Great Britain , in the course of which he denounced his daughter and son-in-law, again, and unknowingly made it clear, again, why the Duke and Duchess of Sussex might not be willing to entertain him.

Even those with a five-star, armored, Olympic-level disinterest in Meghan Markle can appreciate why she might be too busy tidying up her sock drawer to deal with her scandalous family.

In her latest interview, Markle accused her daughter of disowning both sides of her family and said she needs to grow up.

the Daily mail reports that he also accused Prince Harry of doing nothing but riding his bike all over Montecito.

Markle’s coup de grace was his accusation that the Duke and Duchess only care about money, stating, “Everything they do is about money,” as if to confirm that no member of that family seems to grasp the concept of projection. .

Markle said he and Meghan needed to “grow up, talk, reconcile” and mend their relationship.

“This is more than just my daughter and me now, this is me, my daughter, her husband and two babies,” she said on the show.

“So it’s time to do something. Talk.”

Markle accused her daughter of changing after her relationship with Harry began. And just as he accused her of repudiating both sides of the family, he accused Harry of abandoning the Queen, the Royal Family, the British people and the army.

He also suggested that Harry’s next book will be cruel and insulting to his grandmother, the Queen.

Perhaps worst of all was Markle’s veiled threat to see her grandchildren, Archie and Lillibet.

“I am very concerned about that, I would love to see my grandchildren. People have suggested in California that I sue to see my children, but I think if I did it would be a hypocrite, I would be doing the same thing that Meghan and Harry are doing, “he said.

“Several attorneys have told me that grandparents sued to see their grandchildren and they won in California, but I’m not going to do that.

“I don’t want to involve my grandchildren as pawns in a game, they are not part of the game, I mean they are my grandchildren, I want to see my grandchildren.”

Unsurprisingly, the British public immediately responded to this nonsense, igniting social media in its rage on ITV and Good morning Great Britain for airing the interview.

” Good morning Great Britain he has Thomas Markle again, which says a lot about both of them, and nothing good ”, is one typical twitter response.

“You would have thought the answer to Piers hitting her was enough, apparently not Good Morning Britain, the worst TV ever in the tabloids.” is another one .
