Meghan’s dad confirmed heart attack was not believed by Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, although its reality now proves that he could not have attended his daughter wedding as he was advised against it by his doctors.
However, after staging photos with papparazi at a cafe damaged his credibility his subsequent claim to have had a heart attack was not believed, a close associate of a source that spoke with The Daily Mail in 2018 told The Eye Of Media.Com.
“The whole story about Meghan’s father undergoing heart surgery was made up,” the unnamed source told the Daily Mail in 2018. “He had to come up with a good enough reason not to attend her wedding and avoid any further embarrassment after those staged photos went public.”
ANGRY
Meghan and Harry were angry with the fact Mr. Markle had been talking to the press, especially where it involved staging photos. The dishonour in that act had influenced their judgement from acknowledging the possibility he had truly had a heart attack. With those facts now laid bare as part of an important court case which will grab the attention of the world,
The text messages have been made public ahead of Meghan and Prince Harry’s legal case against its sister paper, the Mail on Sunday, and its publisher, Associated Newspapers, is building momentum for a public legal showdown.
The texts are expected to be critical to the Mail’s defence in the event of Martin Markle turning up in court to give evidence of what transpired in the lead up to the case.
They reveal a happy Mr Markle texting Meghan about clothes she had bought for him to wear to the wedding, legal documents filed this week reveal.
He wrote: “I look forward to trying on my shoes and see how we look thank you for getting it ready for me its [sic] probably past your bedtime so have a good night I love you Dad.”
EMERGENCY OPERATION
On 16 May, Mr Markle had an emergency operation to unblock two arteries to his heart. Mr Markle is said to have received a text response signed ‘Love M and H’, but which he believes was from Prince Harry criticising Mr Markle for talking to the press. The letter also urged him to stop accusing Mr Markle of causing hurt to his daughter.
