In his interview with The Mail on Sunday, Thomas reflected on his estranged relationship with his daughter. He said he wanted to speak to Meghan, although he was unsure whether the current circumstances were the right moment for such a conversation. He described himself as open to reconciliation and emphasized that he had never stopped loving her. He added that he did not wish to die estranged from her. He expressed a desire to meet his grandchildren, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet, and noted that meeting Prince Harry would also be welcome.
Thomas insisted that he had not changed his phone number during the years of silence. He explained that he kept the same number because he always wanted Meghan to be able to reach him. Neither Thomas nor his son, Thomas Markle Jr., responded to PEOPLE’s requests for comment.
