Meghan has been estranged from her father since her 2018 wedding after he was caught staging paparazzi photos in the run-up to the big day.

A spokesperson for the Duchess of Sussex said: “I can confirm she has reached out to her father.”

The development is understood to have only just happened.

Meghan is said to have previously tried to reach out to him in the past.

Mr Markle, who moved to live in the Philippines, has never met his grandchildren Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet.
