Kirsty Blake Knox: Meghan Markle's estrangement from her father has taken another tragic turn
"You don't have to have strong feelings for the Markles to acknowledge how sad it is when family relationships shatter - but with Thomas Markle facing ill health, could he and his famous daughter reconcile? Back in May 2018 I was sent to Slough to cover what was being described as the wedding of the year. In the neighbouring town of Windsor, Meghan Markle and Prince Harry were set to get married."
"The town was festooned with decorations and miles of bunting, KFC released a commemorative royal wedding fried chicken bucket, and I interviewed several 'official town criers' in tricorne hats."
Family relationships can shatter, and reconciliation between Thomas Markle and his daughter Meghan is possible despite his ill health. In May 2018, crowds prepared for the wedding of Meghan Markle and Prince Harry. Slough and neighbouring Windsor were decorated with bunting and celebratory displays. KFC released a commemorative royal wedding fried chicken bucket. Local figures included several 'official town criers' wearing tricorne hats. The atmosphere combined local enthusiasm, commercial tie-ins, and ceremonial pageantry. The contrast between public celebration and private family estrangement highlights the personal costs behind high-profile lives.
