Meghan Markle's dad reveals he's moving to other side of the world to escape 'awful drama' Meghan Markle's dad has revealed he is planning to move to the other side of the world to escape the 'awful drama' of life as the Duchess' father.
Former film director Thomas Markle, 80, currently lives in a secluded cliffside house in Mexico, but is already said to have started burning his unwanted possessions as he plans a "fresh start" abroad.
He has decided not to renew his lease on his rented property a few miles from the US border in Rosarito, Mexico, and now hopes to move away with his son Tom Jr, 58, who is Meghan's half brother.
He is famously estranged from his eldest daughter Meghan, his only child from second wife Doria Ragland, and the pair have not spoken since before her royal wedding to Prince Harry in May 2018.
Thomas's announcement comes as his daughter prepares for the release of her new Netflix show featuring a string of famous faces, including a special cameo from her husband.
