Meghan Markle's estranged father wishes to reunite the whole family: 'I love all my children'

Meghan Markle's estranged father, Thomas Markle, has expressed a desire to reconcile with his family and has stated that he harbors no "ill will" towards his daughter.

Thomas, who has spoken negatively about his daughter in the past, told Daily Mail that while he doesn't like "some of the things my daughter has done," he will "always love her."

"My door is always open to her. I love her and that will never change. I love all my children," he said.

The 80-year-old retired lighting director reflected on aging, saying he seeks to move to a place outside America "where the people are lovely and I can enjoy a quieter, friendlier existence."

"Mostly I just want peace. At 80, none of us know how long we have left," he said, noting that he wants "whatever time I have to be peaceful with none of the awful drama of recent years."

Thomas said he is "not running away," but is looking for a "more positive life."

"Every day I see something about Meghan. This week it has been the new TV show," he said.

"I wish her no ill will. My dream is that one day I could bring my whole family together, like a 'normal' family," Thomas continued.
