The Duchess of Sussex father, Thomas Markle has revealed what he told Prince Harry when he asked for permission to marry her.
Mr Markle told the Prince “never to raise a hand” when he asked permission to marry Meghan. In his first interview since missing Meghan Markle and Harry’s wedding he said: “I said to him, ‘you’re a gentleman, promise me you’ll never raise your hand against my daughter’ and I gave my permission.”
The 73-year-old revealed today on Good Morning Britain: “Meghan told me first and then a few times after that Harry got on the phone with Meghan, they got on the phone together, and Harry asked for her hand on the phone.”
He told hosts Piers Morgan and Susanna Reid he “wished” he had been the one to walk Meghan into St George’s Chapel, and revealed he cried as he watched Prince Charles step in on May 19.
