Meghan Markle’s half-brother, Thomas Markle Jr., was recently called utterly ridiculous by a royal expert after he suggested that the Duchess of Sussex will have a falling out with her mom, Doria Ragland, next.

Royal expert Angela Mollard told Australia’s “The Morning Show” that Thomas and his siblings have the so-called relevance deprivation syndrome.

“Thomas Markle Jr has said that Meghan’s at risk of ruining her relationship with her mother, which is utterly ridiculous. She has a brilliant relationship with her mother… He wants her to repair the relationship with his dad,” she said.

But Mollard has also observed how Thomas and his half-sibling, Samantha Markle, usually wait three weeks before they say something about an issue. For instance, the Duchess of Sussex’s dad was not invited to his grandson Archie’s christening on July 6.

Three weeks later, Markle’s half-brother urged Prince Harry’s wife to reconcile with their dad. Thomas also said that Queen Elizabeth should intervene to help patch things up between his half-sister and father.

“Someday I hope you’re smart enough and mature enough to open up and let your family into your life, and baby Archie’s life. Most of all, I hope you call your father and let him be at least a part of yours and Archie’s life… You owe him that,” he said.

Markle’s dad and half-sister have not criticized the “Suits” alum in recent weeks. In fact, they have been awfully quiet even before Markle’s son was born on May 6.

Royal experts are convinced that Thomas Sr. and Samantha have not spoken to the media about the royal in an attempt to get on her good side. They are hopeful that they will be introduced to Archie Harrison Mountbatten-Windsor one day.

Markle has not spoken to her dad since August of last year. Their last known interaction took place when Markle wrote a letter to her dad urging him to stop believing everything that he reads online.
