King Charles reunited with the Sussexes in July, and it is understood that since then, the family have not met again. But now, there’s even more cause for the King to reach out and speak to his son and daughter-in-law.

Meghan Markle has had to deal with the fallout from her father’s arrest. Thomas Markle Sr was arrested on November 6 on a federal charge of possessing child pornography following an investigation into suspected child sexual abuse material. Thomas Sr has previously denied wrongdoing.

Meghan made a statement addressing the allegations about her father when they first became public. The duchess has been estranged from her father since 2018.

In her statement, Meghan said: “I am deeply distressed... my thoughts are with any children who may have been harmed.” She said she hoped it could be understood why she had largely cut off contact from her father and did “not allow him to have contact with our children.”

Speaking to People Magazine, royal expert Ingrid Sward says King Charles, as Harry’s father, should reach out to the Sussexes following the revelation about Thomas Markle Sr. She says: “It is a very private matter. It is up to the King to speak to them, but he should only do it privately.” She adds: “I am sure he will. Any father would do that.”

The royal expert says any response from the palace would require particular sensitivity. It is not known whether King Charles has already spoken to the Sussexes. Meghan pulled out of a speech that she was set to make alongside Prince Harry in Brussels on November 10 as she "did not feel strong enough" after her father's arrest.

The pair travelled to the European Parliament where they planned to address leaders about child online safety. However, Prince Harry made the speech alone, with Meghan dropping out. The duchess still attended alongside her husband to show her support.
