Thomas Markle says Meghan and Harry 'are living like hermits' as he blasts daughter

Thomas Markle has blasted Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, insisting they live like 'hermits'.

The 77-year-old estranged father of the Duchess of Sussex has slammed his daughter's lifestyle.

Meghan's furious dad complained that she and Prince Harry never have visitors around to their house as he claimed the pair only interact with one another and have no friends.

"Harry and Meghan are living like hermits in a 26-room house," Thomas said on GB News.

"They never have parties they never have guests, I think the only guests they have are their million dollar lawyers.

"Otherwise it's Harry walking his dogs or riding his bicycle. I don't understand what they're doing.

"They live alone in a 26-room house they don't go anywhere and they don't do anything. I don't know what Harry does besides walking his dogs and riding his bike."

Mr Markle's latest dig at Meghan and Harry comes after he referred to the prince as his estranged daughter's 'ginger husband'.

Thomas told close pal Karl Larsen he is ready to give evidence against her in a court case brought by her half-sister Samantha.

He said he would be 'thrilled' to come face-to-face with his estranged daughter and her husband Prince Harry.

Thomas also said he believed his eldest daughter should win her case and revealed he would be willing to give evidence on her behalf.

He added: “I would be more than happy to. I’ve been trying for almost four years to get to see my daughter and her ginger husband in a courtroom face-to-face.

"I’d be thrilled to defend my oldest daughter.”

Mr Markle also added that he believed Meghan, 40, should settle the case, saying: “She can’t defend the things she said.”

The lawsuit was first revealed by the Sunday Mirror in November and was formally lodged in Florida last week.

Samantha, 57, is suing her half-sister Meghan for $75,000 (£57,000), claiming she lied about her to the authors of controversial book Finding Freedom and in her TV interview with Oprah Winfrey.
