Things You Didn’t Know About Meghan Markle’s Father

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle got married on May 19, 2018, and everyone is still trying to learn as much as they can about the former actress’ family life and upbringing. While some interesting facts about her mother, Doria Ragland, have been released, we don’t see too much about her father, Thomas Markle Sr.

Here’s what we do know about the man whose daughter captured the heart of the world’s most eligible bachelor and what he really thinks of Prince Harry (page 7).

Markle Sr. is a two-time Emmy Award winner

Markle Sr. worked in Hollywood, like his daughter did, for years. However, he worked behind the camera as the lighting director and cinematographer for sitcoms like Married… with Children and The Facts of Life.

He also worked on the soap opera General Hospital and earned two daytime Emmy Awards one for Outstanding Achievement in Lighting Direction For a Drama Series and another for Outstanding Achievement in Design Excellence For a Daytime Drama Series.
