Thomas Markle Sr. will beat his crippling shyness to walk her down the aisle.
Meghan Markle has invited her reclusive dad to her wedding — and he will beat his crippling shyness to walk her down the aisle.
There were rumours 73-year-old Thomas Markle Sr. would be blanked after Meghan decided against asking half-brother Thomas Jr. and half-sister Samantha.
But a family friend told The Sun on Sunday: “Thomas Sr. is overjoyed to be beside his little girl on the day she becomes a princess — even if he has to battle his demons to get there.”
“He’s not exactly thrilled at facing the world’s glare.”
“He lives a reclusive life in Mexico.”
“But nothing will stop him from having Meghan on his arm for the big day.”
Mom Doria Ragland, who divorced Thomas when Meghan was six, is also invited.
Thomas Jr. missed out, and blamed a drunken bust-up with his fiancée.
Samantha will be in Windsor for the May 19 wedding to Prince Harry — but as a guest of a TV channel.
