LONDON: Kensington Palace on Monday said Meghan Markle was suffering a “deeply personal moment” following reports her father would not attend her wedding to Prince Harry on the weekend. “This is a deeply personal moment for Ms Markle in the days before her wedding,” Kensington Palace, the official residence of the couple, said in a statement. “She and Prince Harry ask again for understanding and respect to be extended to Mr Markle in this difficult situation.”The palace refused to confirm whether her father would be attending the wedding on Saturday. The US actress’ father had previously defied the palace’s pleas for secrecy by agreeing to pose for a paparazzi photoshoot. A source close to Thomas Markle, cited by the publication, said he was convinced after being hounded by the paparazzi.
