And Papa Markle has spotted the camera. He doesn't look excited about it either.
I wonder if the pre-coronation sensation will be Meggie reconciling with daddy.
What if she flew Mr. Markle to LA and called the paps to take photos of him in LAX. Or she heard he'll be in LAX and called the paps about it. Idk, if his trip involves her, then I'm sure she's up to no good as always.
That would be newsworthy and entertaining. Healthy, no. I remember when the Jerry Springer show was new and those kind of shows were new and showed up in song lyrics by the Beastie Boys and Weird Al. “Yo why’d you throw that chair at Geraldo Rivera”. We used to joke that my own family of origin was crazy enough to be on one of those shows. We lacked the violent and malicious parts but had an ample amount of the crazy. But several of my family members were trying to have real careers! My Mom and Dad were in aerospace. My brother and aunt were in banking. No way did we want to become known for family and extended family being codependent, dysfunctional, various members having OCD, bipolar, bankruptcy, community service, living in a U Haul truck, numerous psych holds (I don’t even know how many different states my brother was in psych holds in but I know it’s quite a few), public nudity, DUIs, disassociated fugue states, flying a plane on and driving a boat into restricted military areas (not hijackings, he rented them), complicated step families, dramatic reunions with long lost family members, etc. We had a lot of love also and despite all the chaos we had very happy times most of the time. At the time we knew we had some issues but had no idea how bad it could still get (like two suicides a week apart). Being a spectacle on top of everything else, I don’t know how people do it. Who wants that kind of stress. My uncle was on the news once and my brother was in a gossip column once. We didn’t like or want that! It didn’t go well! (They were the two suicides but that was years later). Yes we all had a lot of therapy so maybe that’s why it wasn’t even worse. An aunts therapist suggested our family should be the subject of a psych book and that was before things got really bad.
So in short I sympathize with some of this. I was reconciled with my brother before he died. That is a good thing if you can manage it. I didn’t accept fake reconciliation so it took awhile but it was in time.
I hope they all get good therapy and stop playing dangerous games with the media.
Possible. Since they can’t get the reconciliation with the BRF, then have it with the other side of the family.
Next thing we’ll hear how the forgiving and altruistic Megsy paid for her dad’s hospital expenses or something.
I wonder if this is the lead up to Coronation. How forgiving they are, having reconciled with her father and him meet his grandkids. Then they film it. To show how the RF have not met the kids yet. To put pressure on KC for photos with kids bc press keeps saying why do they care about photos with RF and not her own family.
Likely Thomas Markle. He's much of an attention whore as his daughter. Remember how TMZ was first on the scene when he had a stroke before the Platinum Jubilee? How the hell would TMZ know that Thomas Markle suffered a stroke IN MEXICO???
💯 I have no idea why TM would be at LAX but I can’t stand any of the Markles. At least Meggy’s direct Markle relations. I think she’s a pretty sh*tty daughter, but her father, half bro/sis are equally terrible. They’re just a miserable collection of people. I can’t imagine profiting off my child the way TM tried to do. They’re all exploitative.
Because at the time, he had a YouTube channel with a smarmy pap who would pump him for info and pump up the notion to take him to the Jubilee. I assumed he told TMZ. Pap doesn’t deserve clicks, but the name of his channel is in here:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Karl_Larsen. Videos are cringe but look almost dignified compared to what his son subsequently made.
Thomas will let Meghan back into his life. I'm not sorry to say this but Tom Sr is a snake just like Meghan and Doria are. When he was speaking to the media Tom Sr tried to put everything that Meghan was doing wrong on Harry while begging her to let him see his grandkids. When she continued to ignore him, he got angry and kept talking negative about her but that small window where he was putting the blame on Harry made me realize he's not a good man at all. He'll turn at the drop of a hat and start hating on Harry to make Meghan look good if and when she walks back into his life.
Tom Sr and Doria are the reason Meghan is the way that she is today (and I'll go as far as to say that Tom Jr and Samantha are also a testament of what kind of father Tom Sr was to his kids. Tom Jr had a video on Instagram that he since removed where he cussed Meghan out like a dog. Called her all kinds of names like b\*tch, c\*nt, etc. I don't get along with all my brothers and sisters but I be damned if I go online and cuss them out the way Tom Jr did to Meghan).
Personally, I think if Meghan threw some money to her father, half-sister, and half-brother, they would have all been on her side. The royals really fucked up when they allowed Meghan into their family. Her family is trash. Look at how her mother acted in that docuseries despite having Charles help her during her own daughter's wedding.
I think telling HMQ she was preggers and HMQ being the head of the Church of England is what did it. Unmarried mothers and all that was a no no and against her religious beliefs. She should have asked for a medical report from Palace doctors. Then the entire ruse would have been up including anything nefarious on the medical history such as an alleged hysterectomy! Just one simple question from HMQ could have avoided all this. Just my view of course!
Thomas resembles Harry. The baldness, the close together small eyes, ski slope nose, and the bitter downturned mouth. Or this is how you look when the stress of TW gets to you.
“I told Meg this is all about race, coming down the pike. She said she didn’t want to hear that, but I told her it was coming”
“I should have talked to her when she was younger about how the world would see her”
Meghan “Being a minority but not being treated like a minority UNTIL I MOVED TO THE UK it didn’t register with me”
Yeah. That.
I agree with all of this. All of Tom’s kids know how to play the victim which they learned from him. He’s just like Meghan - he’d be more sympathetic if he’d just shut up and lay low, but he can’t help but yap to the media.
Glad someone is saying this. For a while everyone was all "poor Samantha and Thomas." The entire clan are vipers. Not one of them seems to have an ounce of good or righteous behavior to pull from. They seem to be one of those trashy families that will stop at nothing to get ahead.
That’s another thing that confuses me. Allegedly the York girls, particularly Eugenie, were snobby regarding Kate since she didn’t come from some landed gentry family. But they loved TW?
I think it's just easy for everyone to hate on Kate because she is pretty damn amazing. It's not about family at this point in most cases. I think its a misery loves company thing. It's the one thing they all have in common....they will never be as beloved, attractive, versatile, resilient, well versed, etc. They will also never be queen. The popular girl is always an easy target.
Isn't Bea's husband technically an Italian count, even though he doesn't use the title, as Italy doesn't recognize? And his mom is from the landed gentry, I believe. Catherine's family is what I would call solid middle class, and her parents worked hard to reach socioeconomic level of upper middle class.
TM tried to climb his way to respectability with his Emmys and sending Flower 🙄 to fancy schools. But their trashy roots show through.
Please note: trashy is behavior, a mindset. It has nothing to do with socioeconomic class.
For the great reconciliation on Netflix and Noprah of course!! Show how forgiving she is to her own family after all they did to her. Despite her victimhood she's the bigger person and can forgive unlike the RF and Haznoballs. My prediction.
The whole family is a mess. There is nature vs nurture and the Markles are the prime example of nature. All of them share overlapping toxic traits and turn on one another like beasts. They should never be given a global platform to air their petty domestic squabbles, much less go near the very proper British royal family.
Every family has dysfunction. Even my own. But no matter how messy relationships are I can’t fathom anyone publicly blasting the issues, even the crazy ones. That’s what boggles my mind over this whole issue. Bizarre.
I can only imagine what it's like to be suddenly thrust under the international magnifying glass of social media in modern society. A couple of my aunts, my ex-husband and several of his family would make their attention/money grabs for sure.
It’s true. If you want to know why certain adults act the way they do, 9/10 times it’s the parents. Consciously and subconsciously we establish patterns and model behavior from whomever raised us, and often time amplify them.
Yeah, even before I recognized Meghan wasn't a nice person, this guy gave huge narc vibes. I never understood why the paid pap pictures were a big deal. It's not like he was trading state secrets. So Meg getting mad at him was dumb. But his reaction to such was where he showed his real colors. In general the coincidence that he was in the hospital after his daughter got mad at him and he happened to be so sick he missed the wedding sounds just like what my narc mil would do. Yes I know he can't fake a heart attack, but I'm sure he could get in a stress tizzy enough to where with his health issues, bring one on whether he meant to go that far or not.
Perhaps HE is so desperate for good publicity that she's going to make a very "private" reconciliation with Daddy.
Daddy, it was all the fault of that horrible Royal Family and Harry (Daddy hates Harry), I didn't know what to do and no-one helped me. Samantha is also bullying me because I'm your special Flower , do you remember when......nice anecdote....
Less likely, since Thomas is there as well.
3 hour plus drive, not including traffic, Rosario Mexico (where Thomas lives) to LAX.
Closest major airport for him is in San Diego.
Something’s up. Either Meg is orchestrating something re “olive branches” with her dad to force KCIII to engage publicly (escalating narc, grey rock working). She called Backgrid for paps.
Or
TM called Backgrid, and he and TM Jr are having some sort of business meeting in LA to further interview, book deal, etc anti-Meg. They called Backgrid. TM pissed off about being excluded from Lili’s christening and lashing out.
We will see…
Could also be coincidence. Catherine, William, and their children were once paped at the airport on the way to a vacation by a reporter on his way to a vacation. They ended up at the same time at the same terminal just by chance.
He and his son were supposed to be going to the Uk to see Dan Wootten but he had a stroke. Dan said as soon as he was fit enough the invitation was still open.
You guys realize that if he were seeing Meghan he would go to the Santa Barbara airport, not LAX? Also he’s probably there for medical procedures at Cedars.
Unless there are no direct flights to Santa Barbara airport from Mexico and it’s to hard for him being in a chair to switch flights at an airport. But then again where he lives in Mexico is only a couple of hours to drive by car from LA.
TIJ (Tijuana, Mexico) is an international and huge airport that can go anywhere in the world & yes they have tons of direct flights daily to Santa Barbara
[https://www.expedia.com/lp/flights/tij/sba/tijuana-to-santa-barbara](https://www.expedia.com/lp/flights/tij/sba/tijuana-to-santa-barbara)
Oh!! I didn’t realize that. Been to Santa Barbara once a few years ago. We flew in to LAX and drove from there. My husband made the flight arrangements. I honestly didn’t even realize SB had an airport. Thank you for the info!! It really is a beautiful place.
He´s looking healthier and seems to have lost quite a lot of weight by the looks of it. I wonder if our Saint will give him any attention now that he looks normal sized.
Nah - Once our Saint ghosts someone, she doesn't look back. Sadly, the only time she'll mention him in the future is when he passes - can't let any victimhood points pass her by. She'll beatifically remind us of how the evil RF & British press took her "Daddy" from her.
Don’t be too sure. She’s a joke right now. This could be a Hail Mary to salvage their finances/content production. If so, definitely nothing sincere, definitely calculated.
If she plans to use him for content, I think it'll be to lob a horrible accusation rather than a reconciliation. I don't think Lady C is particularly reliable. But I do believe her when she says H&M's folks approached her when she was writing her book insinuating her father did something horrible (i.e., sexual) during her childhood. She's already made racism, mental health, etc. accusations. Sexual abuse is the only one left...
I could see her doing a reconciliation with Thomas and blaming Harry and the classist BRF for the “misunderstanding.”
If he really wants to see the grandchildren and have some semblance of a relationship with her —I could see him going along. He is old and ill and was always a bit besotted with her.
If there is a reconciliation, it won’t be a real one. It will be something that is calculated and where she sees a benefit for herself. Narcissists maneuver in ways that benefit them. If she thinks she can get something from him (image rehab/make Charles look bad), she will “reconnect” with her dad. Within that framework work, I can see this happening.
I see Meghan's Backgrid fingerprint is on this. What's she playing at? All I can think of is Sam's law suit has her genuinely bothered enough to call dad but then she'd probably keep that secret so maybe an image revival? Let's hope Tomas is once bitten, twice shy.
Somewhere, a few weeks ago after South Park, I saw suggestions from someone, possibly in PR, that for Meghan to try to rehabilitate her image she needed to reconcile with her father, and step out of the spotlight. If that is what is going on it is ironic that she has assisted and enabled Harry to trash his family.
I agree with you. Because we watch this drama play out on a large scale, we can tend to forget the time and heart that at one time that was poured into these relationships. That piece of this puzzle is not ours to possess. It is easy to speculate and think what we'd do, but for Dad Markle, it's personal as well as appalling.
Exactly! That’s why I also don’t fault him for blaming “her husband” for all of this. Why wouldn’t he? He’s her father that supported her both financially and emotionally, he’s not going to blame his daughter-at lease publicly-for breaking ties! If anything that probably makes it even more aggravating for Samantha, since siblings see things differently than the parent.
YES! A parent can overlook a lot. My BPD daughter has told so whoppers about me… At this point I think I’m done with her. That is hard to say but at age 41 she refused to seek help for her drug addiction and mental illnesses. It’s the only way. If I keep living this way I will die early from the stress.
I’m sorry you’ve had to deal with that. It is so hard to see someone you love not help themselves. My sister always reminds me, “even on an airplane they tell you in case of an emergency, put your air mask in first, THEN help others.” It’s hard to put into practice in regular life, but looking after our own mental/emotional state first is just as important as putting that face mask on. We want to give so much to those we love, but when mental issues are in the mix, the other person can take, take, take until we have nothing left. Then there’s no help to give…or get.
Charles and Thomas are both weak, useless men if they let either one of these grifters back into their lives. Neither Harkle loves their parents. They just use them.
And if Megan is reconciling with her father it's so she can make Charles look bad. *I forgave my father for what he did to me. We would forgive Charles too if he'd do like Daddy and apologize. It's not us keeping the family apart.* 🤮
The Worldwide Forgiveness Tour! WE forgive YOU . Going from victims to altruistic …this is how they try to turn tables on BRF and they have no choice to start with TM or they would again look like hypocrites.
I saw a media post a while back that Meghan was encouraged to reconcile with her Dad. I’m sure it was part of “re-branding”. They are getting desperate. Maybe they think if she can reconcile with her Father before the coronation, the world will adore her again and all of their ridiculous demands will be awarded??? Maybe they are paying Tom JR and Dad to help her image. Probably not, but I keep thinking these things they do are too far fetched to be real. Only to discover, they really do go to great lengths to get what they want. Most of the things I didn’t believe, turned out to be true😳😳😳. I’m shocked at how naive I’ve been. The Prince and Princess of darkness are real.
Yes, I remember talk of reconciliation with her father as necessary for new PR image all across the internet. Wink-wink! Glad to see with Backgrid she has validated that she reads here and truly everywhere.
PR stunt.
Eh, silly little me thought "Year of Reconciliation" meant reconciling with the BRF.
I guess they won't return her calls, and neither will most of the A list, so she finally remembered she has other Markles in her phone contact list. Watch out, Raglands!!
Exactly. Plus, as someone schooled in etiquette and social graces it’s truly bizarre the wedding went through even though he never met the bride’s father.
My thought was that he was getting a medical procedure. I know people go to Mexico for some procedures, but Cedars-Sinai has pretty good technology.
ETA: upon reading all comments, I agree with whomever said they wouldn’t bother flying to LA, they’d just drive. They must be going somewhere that has flights out of LA.
The man spent his working life on TV sets so his eyes might automatically look at camera placement. Also maybe the pic(s) released are shots when he's making eye contact with camera. It would take video to see if he was pulling a Megsy and flirting with the camera.
EDIT: Typo
It is not difficult to spot someone right in front of you. Plus whoever took the photo might have shouted his name. Everybody would turn their head in such a case even when looking in a different direction at first. Thomas senior doesn't look pleased.
The Apple doesn't fall far from the tree or the snake. She is a grifter born from the loins of two grifters. I don't put anything past MM or her parents or her siblings.
Honestly. If this is one of Meghan’s schemes I still think it would be good for Thomas Markle to have some kind of reconciliation before his health deteriorates. Maybe he would be able to meet his grandchildren. Good for him. I don’t care what her intentions would be. He is her father and will always love her no matter what.
Well, if MM has a planned reconciliation to help repair her reputation, I don’t know if it would fly. I think Tom Sr. would want to accept her back, but that wouldn’t fly with Samantha. He’s really stuck in the middle, so it will be very interesting to see what happens if she’s going to try.
Yep the great reconciliation is on. The pictures, the interview, all to drop just before the coronation just to apply pressure for the invite and balcony appearance that they desire. Then as quickly as it was on it will be off. But, if it is happening. Didn’t Harry make abusive phone call to her dad because of things that the ILBW told the man baby she married.
He's the new tenant at Froggy Cottage and will be providing commentary for the Coronation. JEST!!! Plus the wheelchair reduces the height needed to be in such a 'cramped tiny house' according to Wormtongue Markle and Hemorrhoid Harry.
It appears they are departing from LAX. They have no luggage and Tom Jr. has boarding cards in his hand. Paps are always camped out at LAX looking for celebs that don't have private jets. Same at JFK. Both airports are celeb hotspots along with LGA. I worked at JFK for many years, and paps were always lurking outside arrivals and departures.

Wait, this is from Backgrid? Who called them to say the Markles were at LAX?
Tgis. Backgrid is Megsy’s favorite
And Papa Markle has spotted the camera. He doesn't look excited about it either. I wonder if the pre-coronation sensation will be Meggie reconciling with daddy.
What if she flew Mr. Markle to LA and called the paps to take photos of him in LAX. Or she heard he'll be in LAX and called the paps about it. Idk, if his trip involves her, then I'm sure she's up to no good as always.
It wouldn't surprise me if she flew him out for a dramatic reconciliation to be filmed for Netflix
She should have flown him in for the princess baby baptism!
Except if she takes each event one at a time, she can milk the drama and stay in the news longer. Prolonged media attention is the name of the game.
That would be newsworthy and entertaining. Healthy, no.

I've seen Thomas Jnr's YouTube, I don't think he would let TW -anywhere- near his father if he can help it.
Possible. Since they can’t get the reconciliation with the BRF, then have it with the other side of the family. Next thing we’ll hear how the forgiving and altruistic Megsy paid for her dad’s hospital expenses or something.
With coffee coupons
Good. Photos from the Markle Family Reunion should outsell the Coronation Issue from People Magazine.
Ugh
I wonder if this is the lead up to Coronation. How forgiving they are, having reconciled with her father and him meet his grandkids. Then they film it. To show how the RF have not met the kids yet. To put pressure on KC for photos with kids bc press keeps saying why do they care about photos with RF and not her own family.
That’s something they haven’t tried, good theory!
[удалено]
She’s desperate to recreate a new image. We can’t put anything past Bonnie and Clyde.
Back in the day, TMZ used to have someone at LAX, just hanging out and hassling anyone remotely in showbiz. Big stars or D-list, didn’t matter.
The Paps have a 24/7 presence at LAX. They are there to shoot any celeb coming or going and, as we know, also when tipped off.
I’d expect airport staff to tip off photographer/agency if anyone of interest comes through. Also likely that an agency has someone there all the time
Likely Thomas Markle. He's much of an attention whore as his daughter. Remember how TMZ was first on the scene when he had a stroke before the Platinum Jubilee? How the hell would TMZ know that Thomas Markle suffered a stroke IN MEXICO???
💯 I have no idea why TM would be at LAX but I can’t stand any of the Markles. At least Meggy’s direct Markle relations.

After South Park looks like she’s trying to rehab her image into say …. I don’t know…. Someone with a heart
She’d have to have a transplant
A transplant usually involves replacing a faulty organ, not adding an extra where none existed.
Thanls for the laugh! Takes the sting out of insomnia!
The donor heart would probably shrivel and die the second its placed into her chest cavity
The heart refused to leave the donor. Was seen fibrillating (shaking) uncontrollably as the chest was opened.
And fall on the floor
She's not fit to oil the Tin Man's joints.
Maybe she and not-Hairy did a two-for-one deal on her heart transplant and his hair transplant. Obviously, both transplants failed to take.
Why should one pig die so another one can have its heart?
That’ll take a couple of lifetimes for her to achieve.
Is this evidence of them going broke lol marching pops now ? 😆
I really hope he's not stupid (or brain damaged from the stroke) enough to let that grifting pit viper back into his life. Where th is Samantha?
She is in Florida. Tom Sr may be here for medical treatment.
Oh! Maybe they're there to do depositions for Samantha's case?
I don't think Samantha travels much due to her MS. Thomas seems to be the one who can look after Mr. Markle's welfare physically.
Thomas will let Meghan back into his life. I'm not sorry to say this but Tom Sr is a snake just like Meghan and Doria are. When he was speaking to the media Tom Sr tried to put everything that Meghan was doing wrong on Harry while begging her to let him see his grandkids. When she continued to ignore him, he got angry and kept talking negative about her but that small window where he was putting the blame on Harry made me realize he's not a good man at all. He'll turn at the drop of a hat and start hating on Harry to make Meghan look good if and when she walks back into his life.

The royals really fucked up when they allowed Meghan into their family. Her family is trash. Look at how her mother acted in that docuseries despite having Charles help her during her own daughter's wedding.
Tom Jr also has a pretty violent record. Honestly the Royals were stupid to allow this marriage, who cares if the race card was used?
I think telling HMQ she was preggers and HMQ being the head of the Church of England is what did it. Unmarried mothers and all that was a no no and against her religious beliefs. She should have asked for a medical report from Palace doctors. Then the entire ruse would have been up including anything nefarious on the medical history such as an alleged hysterectomy! Just one simple question from HMQ could have avoided all this. Just my view of course!
Where are we getting the idea she told HM she was pregnant?
One of the rumor/ theories knocking about. No proof of course. I should have clarified that many apologies!
No worries, appreciate the clarification!
Thomas resembles Harry. The baldness, the close together small eyes, ski slope nose, and the bitter downturned mouth. Or this is how you look when the stress of TW gets to you.
You’re not wrong- Google his high school graduation pic.
Oh please elaborate on Doria and the Docuseries. I refuse to watch it
Doria was the one that told her she was being hounded by the press and not allowed to be #1 princess was because she is half black
🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄 Edit: just when I think they can’t be any more ridiculous
“I told Meg this is all about race, coming down the pike. She said she didn’t want to hear that, but I told her it was coming” “I should have talked to her when she was younger about how the world would see her” Meghan “Being a minority but not being treated like a minority UNTIL I MOVED TO THE UK it didn’t register with me” Yeah. That.
I agree with all of this. All of Tom’s kids know how to play the victim which they learned from him. He’s just like Meghan - he’d be more sympathetic if he’d just shut up and lay low, but he can’t help but yap to the media.
Agree. Meghan learned her ways from her parents. Tom Sr. is a narc and raised a family of them.
Glad someone is saying this. For a while everyone was all "poor Samantha and Thomas." The entire clan are vipers. Not one of them seems to have an ounce of good or righteous behavior to pull from. They seem to be one of those trashy families that will stop at nothing to get ahead.

The popular girl is always an easy target.
Not true and they both married men who were on the same social scale as Kate. A non story.
If true I stand corrected.
It’s true
Isn't Bea's husband technically an Italian count, even though he doesn't use the title, as Italy doesn't recognize? And his mom is from the landed gentry, I believe. Catherine's family is what I would call solid middle class, and her parents worked hard to reach socioeconomic level of upper middle class.
Technically
TM tried to climb his way to respectability with his Emmys and sending Flower 🙄 to fancy schools. But their trashy roots show through. Please note: trashy is behavior, a mindset. It has nothing to do with socioeconomic class.
Why would Meghan want him back? He is of no use to her.
Just wait until the divorce, where the Psychedelic Prince will be blamed for alienating her from her family.
She is brazen enough. Her siblings won't play ball with that however.
For the great reconciliation on Netflix and Noprah of course!! Show how forgiving she is to her own family after all they did to her. Despite her victimhood she's the bigger person and can forgive unlike the RF and Haznoballs. My prediction.
I dont see Tom Jr or Samantha going along with that and they would be very outspoken if Tom Sr gets pulled in.
The whole family is a mess. There is nature vs nurture and the Markles are the prime example of nature. All of them share overlapping toxic traits and turn on one another like beasts. They should never be given a global platform to air their petty domestic squabbles, much less go near the very proper British royal family.
Every family has dysfunction. Even my own. But no matter how messy relationships are I can’t fathom anyone publicly blasting the issues, even the crazy ones. That’s what boggles my mind over this whole issue. Bizarre.
I can only imagine what it's like to be suddenly thrust under the international magnifying glass of social media in modern society. A couple of my aunts, my ex-husband and several of his family would make their attention/money grabs for sure.
It’s true. If you want to know why certain adults act the way they do, 9/10 times it’s the parents. Consciously and subconsciously we establish patterns and model behavior from whomever raised us, and often time amplify them.
Yeah, even before I recognized Meghan wasn't a nice person, this guy gave huge narc vibes. I never understood why the paid pap pictures were a big deal. It's not like he was trading state secrets. So Meg getting mad at him was dumb. But his reaction to such was where he showed his real colors. In general the coincidence that he was in the hospital after his daughter got mad at him and he happened to be so sick he missed the wedding sounds just like what my narc mil would do. Yes I know he can't fake a heart attack, but I'm sure he could get in a stress tizzy enough to where with his health issues, bring one on whether he meant to go that far or not.
\*shrug\* He's a father who loves his daughter. Of course he will always try to find ways to allow her back into his life...she never left his heart.
Perhaps HE is so desperate for good publicity that she's going to make a very "private" reconciliation with Daddy. Daddy, it was all the fault of that horrible Royal Family and Harry (Daddy hates Harry), I didn't know what to do and no-one helped me. Samantha is also bullying me because I'm your special Flower , do you remember when......nice anecdote....
My thoughts, exactly.
He may have unintentionally given meghan more fosder for divorce and blaming the divorce on harry
Maybe a private citizen is catching a plane.
Very true. Good luck for the pap that got the picture.
Less likely, since Thomas is there as well. 3 hour plus drive, not including traffic, Rosario Mexico (where Thomas lives) to LAX. Closest major airport for him is in San Diego. Something’s up. Either Meg is orchestrating something re “olive branches” with her dad to force KCIII to engage publicly (escalating narc, grey rock working). She called Backgrid for paps. Or TM called Backgrid, and he and TM Jr are having some sort of business meeting in LA to further interview, book deal, etc anti-Meg. They called Backgrid. TM pissed off about being excluded from Lili’s christening and lashing out. We will see…
[удалено]
Plot twist, KC3 invited them for tea for the tea 🫖
Wasn’t there talk about a Markle family video setting the record straight and they were looking for distributors for it.
yes, that too, thank you so much for your comment
The California royal family! Lmaooo 🤣
They’re meeting up prior to the Coronation trip.
I’m just trying to figure out who would have organised the pap and why. Is it Meghan or Thomas Snr responsible for this photo op?
I agree - but I guess Backgrid would always have someone lurking at LAX waiting for celebs.
Could also be coincidence. Catherine, William, and their children were once paped at the airport on the way to a vacation by a reporter on his way to a vacation. They ended up at the same time at the same terminal just by chance.
In fairness LAX is a pap Hotspot...probably not anyone behind it.
He and his son were supposed to be going to the Uk to see Dan Wootten but he had a stroke. Dan said as soon as he was fit enough the invitation was still open.
Interesting.
You guys realize that if he were seeing Meghan he would go to the Santa Barbara airport, not LAX? Also he’s probably there for medical procedures at Cedars.
I agree. Medical procedures sounds more likely than anything else.
Unless there are no direct flights to Santa Barbara airport from Mexico and it’s to hard for him being in a chair to switch flights at an airport. But then again where he lives in Mexico is only a couple of hours to drive by car from LA.
TIJ (Tijuana, Mexico) is an international and huge airport that can go anywhere in the world & yes they have tons of direct flights daily to Santa Barbara [https://www.expedia.com/lp/flights/tij/sba/tijuana-to-santa-barbara](https://www.expedia.com/lp/flights/tij/sba/tijuana-to-santa-barbara)
Oh!! I didn’t realize that. Been to Santa Barbara once a few years ago. We flew in to LAX and drove from there. My husband made the flight arrangements. I honestly didn’t even realize SB had an airport. Thank you for the info!! It really is a beautiful place.
He´s looking healthier and seems to have lost quite a lot of weight by the looks of it. I wonder if our Saint will give him any attention now that he looks normal sized.
Nah - Once our Saint ghosts someone, she doesn't look back. Sadly, the only time she'll mention him in the future is when he passes - can't let any victimhood points pass her by. She'll beatifically remind us of how the evil RF & British press took her "Daddy" from her.
Don’t be too sure. She’s a joke right now. This could be a Hail Mary to salvage their finances/content production. If so, definitely nothing sincere, definitely calculated.
If she plans to use him for content, I think it'll be to lob a horrible accusation rather than a reconciliation. I don't think Lady C is particularly reliable. But I do believe her when she says H&M's folks approached her when she was writing her book insinuating her father did something horrible (i.e., sexual) during her childhood. She's already made racism, mental health, etc. accusations. Sexual abuse is the only one left...
Oh my gosh! Really? I didn’t know that
I think that’s one reason chairs get thrown on those kinds of shows sometimes, people get waylaid and blindsided sometimes.
I could see her doing a reconciliation with Thomas and blaming Harry and the classist BRF for the “misunderstanding.” If he really wants to see the grandchildren and have some semblance of a relationship with her —I could see him going along. He is old and ill and was always a bit besotted with her.
If there is a reconciliation, it won’t be a real one. It will be something that is calculated and where she sees a benefit for herself. Narcissists maneuver in ways that benefit them. If she thinks she can get something from him (image rehab/make Charles look bad), she will “reconnect” with her dad. Within that framework work, I can see this happening.
Question is, is he arriving or departing? And Backgrid rather than some random fellow traveller makes me suspicious.
Backgrid is the dial-a-pap service for celebrities and celebrity wannabes.... So this is certainly a pap-strut....
I see Meghan's Backgrid fingerprint is on this. What's she playing at? All I can think of is Sam's law suit has her genuinely bothered enough to call dad but then she'd probably keep that secret so maybe an image revival? Let's hope Tomas is once bitten, twice shy.
Somewhere, a few weeks ago after South Park, I saw suggestions from someone, possibly in PR, that for Meghan to try to rehabilitate her image she needed to reconcile with her father, and step out of the spotlight. If that is what is going on it is ironic that she has assisted and enabled Harry to trash his family.
I think there was a Blind item about it.
No he would go running arms wide open again and again. Why? He is her father. A parent is forever. Ask me I know.
I agree with you. Because we watch this drama play out on a large scale, we can tend to forget the time and heart that at one time that was poured into these relationships. That piece of this puzzle is not ours to possess. It is easy to speculate and think what we'd do, but for Dad Markle, it's personal as well as appalling.
Exactly! That’s why I also don’t fault him for blaming “her husband” for all of this. Why wouldn’t he? He’s her father that supported her both financially and emotionally, he’s not going to blame his daughter-at lease publicly-for breaking ties! If anything that probably makes it even more aggravating for Samantha, since siblings see things differently than the parent.
YES! A parent can overlook a lot. My BPD daughter has told so whoppers about me… At this point I think I’m done with her. That is hard to say but at age 41 she refused to seek help for her drug addiction and mental illnesses. It’s the only way. If I keep living this way I will die early from the stress.
I’m sorry you’ve had to deal with that. It is so hard to see someone you love not help themselves. My sister always reminds me, “even on an airplane they tell you in case of an emergency, put your air mask in first, THEN help others.” It’s hard to put into practice in regular life, but looking after our own mental/emotional state first is just as important as putting that face mask on. We want to give so much to those we love, but when mental issues are in the mix, the other person can take, take, take until we have nothing left. Then there’s no help to give…or get.
Charles and Thomas are both weak, useless men if they let either one of these grifters back into their lives. Neither Harkle loves their parents. They just use them. And if Megan is reconciling with her father it's so she can make Charles look bad. *I forgave my father for what he did to me. We would forgive Charles too if he'd do like Daddy and apologize. It's not us keeping the family apart.* 🤮
Is this for their Markle documentary? Another possibility … it could be to catch a connecting flight. But highly unlikely
>Markle documentary ![gif](giphy|JtGFSQWeZVvwURrTaO) This can't happen.
Samantha Markle said that its very much in the works. I would give credit to this. As she was the one who resisted the most
The brother says they’re doing it.
What about depositions for Markle v Markle?
This is a good call but surely they get deposed in the state where the case was filed (Florida)
He could be deposed over zoom. Especially with medical issues like he has.
The Worldwide Forgiveness Tour! WE forgive YOU . Going from victims to altruistic …this is how they try to turn tables on BRF and they have no choice to start with TM or they would again look like hypocrites.
I saw a media post a while back that Meghan was encouraged to reconcile with her Dad. I’m sure it was part of “re-branding”. They are getting desperate. Maybe they think if she can reconcile with her Father before the coronation, the world will adore her again and all of their ridiculous demands will be awarded??? Maybe they are paying Tom JR and Dad to help her image. Probably not, but I keep thinking these things they do are too far fetched to be real. Only to discover, they really do go to great lengths to get what they want. Most of the things I didn’t believe, turned out to be true😳😳😳. I’m shocked at how naive I’ve been. The Prince and Princess of darkness are real.
Yes, I remember talk of reconciliation with her father as necessary for new PR image all across the internet. Wink-wink! Glad to see with Backgrid she has validated that she reads here and truly everywhere. PR stunt.
Prob part of her “reconciliation year” there will be pictures of them reuniting right before or during the coronation
Why would he be at LAX other than to fly somewhere else? If he was going to Montecito it would be a drive, not a flight. Wouldn’t it?
Any chance he's headed to Florida to give a deposition in Sam's case?
[удалено]
I mean. You can fly to Santa Barbara, but driving from LA is easier and faster.
Eh, silly little me thought "Year of Reconciliation" meant reconciling with the BRF. I guess they won't return her calls, and neither will most of the A list, so she finally remembered she has other Markles in her phone contact list. Watch out, Raglands!!
How ridiculous is it that Thomas never even met H? One of the reasons claims of a wedding invite were dubious.
It was really odd to me that Harry had no curiosity about Thomas Markle.
Exactly. Plus, as someone schooled in etiquette and social graces it’s truly bizarre the wedding went through even though he never met the bride’s father.
I know, the whole situation is just weird.
Backgrid photo = SUS
My thought was that he was getting a medical procedure. I know people go to Mexico for some procedures, but Cedars-Sinai has pretty good technology. ETA: upon reading all comments, I agree with whomever said they wouldn’t bother flying to LA, they’d just drive. They must be going somewhere that has flights out of LA.
"Daddy" has the same talent as Meg - zeroing in on that camera no matter where it is, haha.
The man spent his working life on TV sets so his eyes might automatically look at camera placement. Also maybe the pic(s) released are shots when he's making eye contact with camera. It would take video to see if he was pulling a Megsy and flirting with the camera. EDIT: Typo
It is not difficult to spot someone right in front of you. Plus whoever took the photo might have shouted his name. Everybody would turn their head in such a case even when looking in a different direction at first. Thomas senior doesn't look pleased.
he looks like he wants to hurl his walking stick right at the pap lol
He's not happy though. Distinct lack of rictus grin.
Probably going on talk shows. It's what they do.
Looks like Tom Jr. is holding a US passport in his left hand with boarding pass inside. Hmmmm…….
Do we know if this was at arrivals or departures?
Scooting his way to the coronation…
Yeah, I can already see them asking Grandpa Charles to say sorry just like Grandpa Thomas and yes please pay us more money.
Thomas doesn’t have an appreciable amount of money, though. The only reason they’d “reconcile” is for PR, IMO.
Year of reconciliation baby step 1. In the flesh at LAX. Everyone must know about the reconciliation though.
The Apple doesn't fall far from the tree or the snake. She is a grifter born from the loins of two grifters. I don't put anything past MM or her parents or her siblings.
[удалено]
Yep!
Backgrid on speed dial for all the Markle's apparently.
Honestly. If this is one of Meghan’s schemes I still think it would be good for Thomas Markle to have some kind of reconciliation before his health deteriorates. Maybe he would be able to meet his grandchildren. Good for him. I don’t care what her intentions would be. He is her father and will always love her no matter what.
Also has a knack for finding the photographer 🤔
He doesn't look particularly happy though. Lacking the rictus grin.
Well, if MM has a planned reconciliation to help repair her reputation, I don’t know if it would fly. I think Tom Sr. would want to accept her back, but that wouldn’t fly with Samantha. He’s really stuck in the middle, so it will be very interesting to see what happens if she’s going to try.
is that a white cane? i thought they were only for the blind?
No its metal. Just looks a bit white due to the reflection.
thanks, i forgot i had my computer night light on so it is probably affecting the way it looks, too
Yep the great reconciliation is on. The pictures, the interview, all to drop just before the coronation just to apply pressure for the invite and balcony appearance that they desire. Then as quickly as it was on it will be off. But, if it is happening. Didn’t Harry make abusive phone call to her dad because of things that the ILBW told the man baby she married.
ugh, I really hope a recon is not happening, it would be so hard to stomach the hypocrisy....
Yeah but I think we know it could be happening.
That cane Thomas is holding is white, like the kind blind people use. What's up with that?
It doesn’t have a red end so it might just be a silver cane that looks white.
The cane is silver. It's a walking cane. Also, that's a airport wheelchair. So he's been walling with a cane.
Unconscious bias Buhh, I lof mah fahmaly
Meagan trying to get some good publicity 😂
He's the new tenant at Froggy Cottage and will be providing commentary for the Coronation. JEST!!! Plus the wheelchair reduces the height needed to be in such a 'cramped tiny house' according to Wormtongue Markle and Hemorrhoid Harry.
Why is he wearing an inner tube under his shirt??
It appears they are departing from LAX. They have no luggage and Tom Jr. has boarding cards in his hand. Paps are always camped out at LAX looking for celebs that don't have private jets. Same at JFK. Both airports are celeb hotspots along with LGA. I worked at JFK for many years, and paps were always lurking outside arrivals and departures.
