Thomas Markle is mad that Trump will meet the queen before he will
Meghan Markle‘s father is miffed that President Donald Trump will probably meet Queen Elizabeth II before he will.
Thomas Markle told TMZ that he hasn’t been in contact with anyone from the palace, including Meghan, since he gave an interview with “Good Morning Britain” earlier this month.
Thomas, 73, famously missed her royal wedding to Prince Harry in May after it was revealed he staged paparazzi photos of himself leading up to the event.
He was reportedly hospitalized for a heart attack after the incident and hasn’t yet been across the pond to meet his daughter’s new family.
Meanwhile, Trump is scheduled to meet with the royals in July.
“If the Queen is willing to meet our arrogant and insensitive president she has no excuse not to meet me,” Thomas griped to TMZ early Tuesday. “I’m nowhere near as bad.”
Still, Thomas reportedly has “every intention” of visiting the UK soon.
Thomas, who describes himself as fervently anti-Trump, previously revealed that Prince Harry urged him to give the POTUS a chance.
“He’s a smart guy,” Thomas said of his new son-in-law. “We talked a few times about Donald Trump and Brexit and things like that … I was complaining I didn’t like Donald Trump. He said, ‘Give Donald Trump a chance.’ I sort of disagreed with that, but I still like Harry. That was his politics. I have my politics.”
He added of Prince Harry potentially being a Trump supporter, “I would hope not, but at the time he might have been.”
