Meghan Markle has reportedly been cautioned that a letter she sent to Thomas Markle may not remain private.
Reaching Out After a Medical Emergency
Last year, the Duchess of Sussex contacted her father following his emergency surgery after suffering circulation problems in his lower limbs, RadarOnline.com reports.
Thomas Markle was rushed to hospital on December 3 when his leg reportedly began turning blue and black. Doctors later amputated his left foot and lower leg.
Following the operation, the 81-year-old is now using a walking frame and is hoping to transition to crutches before being fitted with a prosthetic leg in the near future.
Efforts to Keep the Letter Private
Meghan, 44, is said to have learned about her father’s condition and handwritten a letter, which was delivered through the local U.S. consulate in the Philippines, where Thomas is currently recovering. The method was reportedly chosen to prevent the message from being leaked to the media.
Mail on Sunday also reported that a lawyer was present when Thomas received the letter at the hospital and that the exchange was allegedly filmed.
The contents of the letter remain unknown.
