i feel very sorry for him not being able to contact her, after all he is her dad.

[Peaches McPhee]

I am sure there are good reasons on her side.  No one cuts off family without good reasons.  (Well, almost no one . . .)

[Alison Wonderland]

Please. 

If my dad were telling stories about me to tabloids, I'd cut him off, too. The man has chosen money over his daughter. I don't feel sorry for him at all.

These kinds of things are deeply personal and should best be kept out of the public, even for those in Megan's position.  It's very sad when close family members have issues like this, but it's got to be even more painful to have it played out in the press along with all the multitudes of opinions and speculations.

I feel bad for her.  She should not have to read about her father talking to the press and making money off of her marriage.  He probably has no idea what goes on with this family, but he must know that they do not like what he is doing.  If he had respect for her and for her marriage, he would stop with all interviews.  He needs to follow her mother's lead and have some dignity.

It's a sad situation for both sides.

Long before the scandal with the pictures and the recent interviews, I always thought it was odd that Harry never even met her father. It's not like he couldn't fly down to Mexico or fly him to the U.K.

he's a jerk.

My in-laws (who are English and are in London as we speak) read his latest interview and agree with most of what he said. My FIL mentioned that "the man made some valid points and people should stop and think".

I googled to find the latest and....the point about the teacups were what stood out to me as well as the comment about her smile.

As a parent, I've seen that with my own sons, so....I wonder.

I fear that this man's nettlesome ways might eventually help undo this marriage.  

He appears to be a constant annoyance and source of embarrassment.  It would be nice if he could be brought quietly into the U.K. to visit his daughter and new son-in-law, not say a word to the press, and then return home.  And he still should remain mum about his visit.

He is her father, but he is misusing this relationship, to my way of thinking.

None of us know what really has gone on with that family.  I will not condemn her father but I will agree he has to stop talking to the press and having articles printed in newspapers.  The only one he is really hurting is himself.  He spent a fortune raising Meghan, private schools, acting lessons and anything she wanted.  He filed bankruptcy as a result from what I read, and she has earned a lot of money...does she send any of it to her dad?  In a way I feel sorry for him and hopefully he will get the help he needs to deal with his feelings.
