Meghan’s father thinks Oprah is playing with his daughter and ‘weakened man’ Harry

Thomas Markle, Meghan’s father, believes that TV host Oprah Winfrey is taking advantage of her daughter and her husband, Prince Harry, for self-promotion.

“I have things to say. Oprah Winfrey, for example, I think Oprah Winfrey is playing with Harry and Meghan. I think she’s using them to build her network and her new shows,” the Duchess of Sussex’s father said in an explosive interview with the Australian show 60 Minutes Australia.

Thomas said Oprah could sue him, but he believes that she has been using Harry, whom she considered a fragile person.

“I think [Oprah] is taking the advantage of a very weakened man and getting him to say things you just shouldn’t be saying on television. She won’t agree, of course, and she might even sue me, I don’t care. But the bottom line is that seems to me she is working Harry,” said the prince’s father-in-law.

Thomas later criticized the couple, saying that they went the wrong way and that everything they do seems to go against public opinion.

“The only beneficiary is Oprah,” he stressed.

During the interview, the Duchess’s father also spoke about his difficult relationship with Meghan. He assured them that he apologized to her for participating in a photo session in which he was supposedly preparing for the wedding of his daughter and Harry, to which he had not been invited.

Thomas Markle revealed that his daughter has not spoken to him for three years.

“I apologized 100 times for that. I’m not bitter, I’m confused. I just don’t have the answer. I want the answer. There are ax killers in prison, your family comes to see them. Right? I mean, I’m not an ax killer. You know, I made a silly mistake, they never forgave me,” he lamented.
