Thomas Markle gave yet another psychotic exclusive to the Daily Mail. For what it’s worth, this wasn’t something hastily pulled together so Toxic Tom could try to hijack his daughter’s promotion for her Netflix show. This seems like something Tom organized days or even weeks beforehand. His new storyline is that he’s moving to Asia. The man left California years ago and has lived full-time in Mexico for the better part of a decade, but the Mail seems to think that Mexico is part of California, because their headline is “Meghan’s father: I’m leaving America for a new life abroad.” Dude already “left America.” The psychotic part is that Tom invited the Mail inside his home to watch him pack up his belongings. Of course, he started with all of his photos and videos of Meghan, all of which he’s already sold or licensed to the Mail and other outlets. Some lowlights from the Mail:
A fresh start: Mr Markle told The Mail on Sunday he has decided to up sticks and leave the cliffside house in Mexico he has called home for ten years. Mr Markle, 80, has suffered two heart attacks and a stroke in recent years, and says his decision to seek a new life abroad is because he is seeking ‘peace’ and ‘kinder people’.
He let the Mail watch him pack: I was with Mr Markle this week as he packed up a lifetime of memories. We drank PG Tips and ate endless mince pies as he sorted his possessions into packing boxes and burned those things he did not wish to keep. Here were Meghan’s school reports describing her as a child who ‘demonstrates constant effort and is active in classroom discussions’ – dog-eared documents he first received when she was nine years old and which he has treasured all these years. And there were endless photographs of Meghan – feeding the ducks with her dad, playing crazy golf, laughing during fishing trips to a neighbouring lake…Each photograph was carefully placed in a plastic bag for protection and then put into boxes for the long journey to wherever life may next take him.
He’s not brave: When I tell him he is ‘brave’ to start anew at 80 years old he shrugs, smiles and says: ‘I don’t know if brave is the word. I am ready for a change. I have felt stuck in a rut for some time and I am ready to meet new people and experience kindness.’
Meghan’s first husband: On one table there were videos of Meghan’s first wedding to Hollywood producer Trevor Engelson, who she married on a beach in Jamaica in 2011 only to divorce in 2014 – two years before she met Prince Harry on a blind date. ‘I really liked Trevor,’ Mr Markle said softly. ‘I don’t think he ever understood why she dumped him, either.’
LOL, the Sussexes are still not speaking to him: Incredibly, he has yet to meet his son-in-law Prince Harry or his grandchildren Archie, five, or three-year-old Lilibet, who was named after the late Queen. He has come to accept that he most likely now never will – although, for him, the door remains constantly open. The Emmy-award winning Hollywood lighting director has not renewed the lease on his Mexican rented home. Instead, he is planning to travel and explore his options with his son Tom Jr, 58, Meghan’s half brother. ‘I don’t know where I’ll end up but it is time to move on and find a place where I can live among kind people and enjoy the time I have left,’ he said.
Methinks the Mail is being so heavy-handed with how “sad” this is because they can’t count on Tom to trash his daughter at a moment’s notice whenever they need a story. Other than his big move, nothing has changed in six-plus years. Meghan still isn’t speaking to him, and he’s still getting paid to sell her out constantly. Inviting a Daily Mail reporter into his home while he packs his things is one of the grossest things he’s ever done, and that’s saying something.

And to him I say “ don’t let the door hit you on the way out. Good riddance!!
@Susan Collins
💯👍🏾
I’d say let it slam on him, giving him a big shove back over to Thailand. Isn’t that where Jr. said Sr. spent a LOT of time doing blow and hookers?
This POS still hasn’t met the “non-royal” grands, doesn’t have pics out of them, yet….crickets.
Yes, @jan9, and that is where Tom Jr said that Tom Sr, in advising him to go there, said that what the girls do to you there will blow your mind. 🤮 He’s going on an extended sex tour (with, of course, Tom Jr in tow).
I predict a reality show pitch. Thomas Jr. and Thomas Sr. are going to try and ride the coattails of Meghans new Netflix show.
PG Tips and endless mince pies? At an American’s house in Mexico? Come on..
Most likely the reporter brought the tea and mince pies with her. She claims to have grown very close to Toxic Tom.
Agree, most Americans don’t touch tea, and I’d be surprised if you can get PG Tips or mince pies in Mexico except in a metropolis that has a British store, or ordered from abroad. Did the reporter pack “endless mince pies” in a suitcase for a 9-hour flight? Maybe mince pies seem infinite when they’re squashed?
@ Aeren – Right? “Thomas Markle, he’s just like us!” for the haters on Salty Isle.
Mail journo not willing to shell out on Yorkshire Gold, I see.
Quite, it’s not like he’s been in the UK enough to get a taste for either. Talk about desperately trying to connect to your readers.
I think those pies were full of bullsh*t!
Why is not one person talking about how OBSESSED this man is with Meghan. Packing away the photos and videos of Meghan. Where are the photos and videos of your other children? Or your other GRANDCHILDREN? Leaving to travel when his other grandkids are in America? So when does he plan on seeing them? He got that money from lady Colin Campbell and jumped ship. Parents love their children. Dysfunctional parents are obsessed with them. Thomas Markle and his two older children are obsessed with Meghan.
@Afken: I was going to make the same comments. All of the photos and talk about Meghan but almost nothing about his other children and grandchildren.
Because she’s the most famous and successful. Making this doubly gross
He needs to get over Trevor too.
I was under the impression that Trevor cheated on her with one of her friends, who then sold photos from their friendship.
@jazzbaby1 … and I was under the impression that Sr. had never even MET Trevor. He lied his face off about being at her first wedding. Doria was there but Sr. wasn’t was my understanding.
@jazzbaby1 — me too. And didn’t her *friend* say some pretty unkind things about Meghan to the press? That seemed to get shut down immediately and Trevor has never said anything negative about Meghan despite being hounded by the gutter media.
@somebody, agree. Trevor has moved on with his life. He has a wife and child now. Trevor’s doing his own thing. It’s pretty gross of an ex-father-in-law/father to still have wedding photos/videos hanging around from their child’s first marriage.
Maybe I’m just from people that understand you get rid of that shite.
It blows my mind that people still defend this man and think Meghan owes him something.
Exactly. So what she mailed her wedding band back. I hocked mine before the ink was even dry!
It also blows my mind that the derangers all think it was Meghan who either had an affair or was so awful to Trevor that the marriage disintegrated almost immediately. Hell, I sold all my jewelry from my ex, I didn’t want anything that reminded me of what a shit he was.
Bye, Toxic Tom!
Not sure about Mexico, but I’ve never seen PG Tips available in Canada (I suppose perhaps in UK specialty stores maybe?). And mince pie is such a bizarre thing – once my British grandmothers died even my British born mother stopped making it. Further hints that this is a bizarre blend of fiction and their version of “reality” I guess…
I can buy PG Tips at my Wegmans grocery (US) in the international section. I’m more likely to choose an Aero bar though 🤣
Mmm aero bars – very popular in Canada too. Are they rare in the US? Did not know that.
Hey if any Celebitches can help a gal out – can’t find Twinings Black Currant black tea in Canada anymore and couldn’t find it on a trip to London early this year. Any sightings please let me know – been my favourite tea forever! 😉
PG Tips is available lots of pretty basic places in the US, like Target and World Market. Mince is more niche. When she could find it jarred in the market, my mom would make cookies with it.
Or you can get Lipton in the regular section, probably cheaper.
Is that the blackcurrant breeze one? I actually don’t think it’s a British product, but possibly made by Twinings for the international market. Seems to be available on Amazon UK for vast price. I haven’t ever seen it in shops here. (The Twinings blackcurrant fruit tea – just fruit tea, no black tea – is sold everywhere.)
We should do a tea exchange as I’m desperate to get more Trader Joe candy cane green tea.
@Mtl.Ex.Pat. Amazon.ca has it, although it’s quite expensive.
https://www.amazon.ca/Twinings-London-Black-Blackcurrant-Count/dp/B00FEAHW4I?th=1
The US Amazon site also has it.
@Mt.Ex.Pat — you can get it on Amazon, here’s a link: https://www.amazon.ca/Twinings-London-Black-Blackcurrant-Count/dp/B00FEAHW4I?th=1
Real Canadian Superstore carries it.
Apparently, so does walmart, but I only know that from a web search as I don’t shop there.
PG Tips has been available in Canada for decades. I used to work at Kellogg’s when it owned Salada, and PG Tips was one of Salada’s main competitors.
@samuelwhiskers – tea exchange – love it! Yeah it’s the actual black tea. I don’t like the fruity/herbals ones without black tea. It used to be everywhere in Montreal/eastern Ontario then vanished a year or so back.
@blithe & @jaded – thanks!!! Awesome! Not cheap but I may just have to splurge…
@kellybelle – that’s interesting – I wonder if it’s a regional thing because I can’t say I’ve ever seen it in my neck of the woods…
And @Chrissy – I’m old enough to remember those Red Rose tea commercials – “only in Canada eh? Pity!”
Thanks everyone!
I’ve seen PG Tips teabags at my local store at our Safeway store in a Prairie province in Canada. We prefer Red Rose tea though.
I have just found it on ca.iherb.com for $7.66 for 20 teabags.
I’m not a big tea drinker, but I’ve definitely seen PG Tips in ordinary supermarkets in Ontario. Pretty sure I’ve seen them at Sobeys or Loblaws
The people in Mexico aren’t kind? How weird. And he’s going to be “exploring his options with Tom Jr.”? Right.
This sounds like he can’t live on his own anymore and he’ll be moving in with Tom Jr., which is a totally normal thing to do. Except he’s not a normal person.
Moving with in Tom Jr. LOL, Jr. has not worked for years, except being on YouTube slagging Meghan.
He is living off of toxic Tom, Scammy is going to be screaming, now that Jr. is handling Sr. cash, and credit card companies are suing her for their money.
The gravy train has halted for the Markles, no new material, all of Meghan’s pictures have been sold to the press already.
It’s not about who is supporting whom financially, it’s that Tom Sr is an unhealthy 80-year old. I can imagine the two of them on Tom Jr’s YouTube channel – Tom Sr, his trembling hand holding up childhood photos of Meghan. So sad, so pathetic, so the fodder that derangers want to see… Then again, I’ve never seen Tom Jr’s channel, maybe he’s already done that, I don’t know.
Having lived in Mexico off and on over the years, I can assure Toxic Tom that Mexicans are some of the kindest, most welcoming people I’ve met. This is simply Tom doing what he does best — slag his daughter off to the highest bidder.
So at 80, Deathbed Dad is able to start a new life in Asia? Something stinks here,
It’s pretty insidious how this DM reporter has gotten so close to Meghan’s dad. Caroline Graham right? Like hasn’t she been hovering around him since the engagement days? Thomas Markle has sold his daughter out left and right which is sad as hell.
She’s the one that wrote all the pre-wedding sh*t, and then she’s the one that “outted” him about it. And yet, he still lets her in to write more sh*t. SMDH.
Why Asia and where in asia? What’s to do there?
He’s moving to Bahrain with Andrew.
@somebody – oh snap! Ha!
😂🤣😂
This comment wins the day!
@SOMEBODY, comment of the year 🤣🤣
Thailand seems to be the cards, apparently. You may recall that a few years ago (2018?) the equally toxic Tom junior said his father went there often when still married to Doria, paid for sex and took drugs there. That was, of course, before he joined forces with dad and Scammy to attack Meghan and Harry for money. Recently, the lot of them have even started spreading nonsense about the kids (surrogacy conspiracy theories, etc, palling up again with that poisonous nutcase Lady Colin Cambell).
Campbell spreads malicious stories about Diana also. Of course Campbell gets vile about the sussexes
Was just coming here to say this- Markle is
Probably packing lots of little blue pills
@beth – side bar – how long was Lady Colin Campbell actually married to Colin Campbell – 15 minutes or something?! She’s certainly hung on to the title for grim death and uses it as leverage to spout all manner of cruel nonsense….
Omg! I love this! I just found you, can’t wait to read more! Roachel is horrendous and that is polite! Haha Thank you! 🙂
Eh. You reap what you sow. When you spread kindness, you’re much more likely to receive kindness in return. Perhaps what Markle means is that he can live less expensively and pay for household help wherever it is that he’s going.
He does not see the adult grandchildren. Insulting the younger ones parents and rushing to the media do not indicate he wanted to see the Sussex children. I doubt he had heart attacks and stroke. When he had the alleged stroke he had a camera crew and had time for an interview. He does not belong in kinder places he is a very unkind man. Trevor and Meghan never publicly commented on their marriage yet tommy puts in his two cents.
Say it. He is nothing but filth. Like his first two demon spawn. Human trash and nothing more.
That was the time he drove up, stopped for fast-food, and then had his “heart attack”. After, he rented an Air B&B to watch the wedding LMAO
He’s an obese 80 year-old; heart attack and stroke might be the one true part of this article.
Years back, an article I read or gossip I heard said that no record could be found of his hospitalization.
I remember getting into a big fight on another forum because I really looked into it closely and all his various medical claims are at best highly dubious. Papped eating McDonalds hours after allegedly having heart surgery, releasing hospital documents with no hospital stamp that looked like he made them in MS Word, paps just happening to be outside the exact minute he allegedly had a stroke to take photos of him SITTING UPRIGHT being taken out his house and put in an ambulance.
I very specifically remember the Daily Telegraph claiming he faked his medical woes bc they’re very very right wing and conservative and Meghan haters usually believe the Telegraph, and a lot of them got really angry about the article. (DT is so super conservative that they’re very pro-monarchy so they’re not pro-Thomas since he embarrass the monarchy. The DM is right wing but doesn’t care about anything except drama drama drama.)
This. I don’t believe that he had a heart attack at the time of the wedding. But that lie has been used to make Meghan seem cold-hearted for going ahead with the wedding. As we learned in the Netflix series, someone answered texts at that time supposedly from Thomas and called her Meghan when never had her father called her anything but Meg. Whoever that person was is also a part of the so-called heart attack.
A shame. I knew it was only a matter of time before they’d roll “Po Ole Papa Markle” back out again for another round of whatever they think this is. Well, he’s leaving “America” for Asia now, so KP can’t use him to bludgeon Meghan anymore. A sad day for the rota because they don’t have anything else left in their toolbox of hate. And with this clown now leaving the stage, that leaves even fewer stories to feed the tabloid/media beast. Whatever will KP do now?
Well, he hasn’t left yet! This might just be a ploy for attention, one last ditch effort to get a Sussex reaction. Ha! Good luck with that. Such a loser dad! SMH
I guess to be fair Mexico is in North America. So it is accurate to say he’s leaving America.
Going to “Asia” sounds very dodgy, especially if it does turn out to be Thailand or Vietnam.
I don’t think Asia sounds dodgy at all. My husband and I were looking for places to go after Trump won the election and found many places across Asia that one can afford if they aren’t rich. Maybe he can’t afford the place in Mexico anymore. If he has to sell stories about his daughter then he probably isn’t loaded with cash. And I was thinking the same thing about Mexico/North America. It’s a stretch but technically somewhat accurate.
I’m sure Markle Sr will have a great time in Asia. His son did say many years ago (before he switched up) that when Sr was a frequent visitor of asian countries, he would get good deals on prostitution and drugs. Let’s hope that’s not the reason he’s moving back. With all the health issues & “strokes” he’s had, I’m sure he doesn’t want to add an incurable sexual disease to that list.
The Fail is packing off Toxic Tom IMO. The rag wasted 8 years of time and money on this sad sack and his loser elder demon spawn to help bring down Meghan and they really got nothing for it. They failed to compel Meghan to reconnect with the trash relatives so said relatives can sell insider stories and new pictures, especially of the kids. That Instagram post of Harry and Archie at a surfing camp told the BM they will never get exclusive pictures of the Sussex children. Netflix and other organizations who work with Meghan prove they don’t listen to what the Markle Monsters say about Meghan because they don’t believe them. The US and Hollywood have seen this movie before: bitter poor relations resent a family member who does well and expect a come up. And it’s Toxic Tom’s fault he can’t see Archie and Lili: he’s done things that would be problematic in a CA court. (Another reason he’s packed off; he’ll be no use to them in court.)
Good riddance to bad rubbish. I thought the men in your family didn’t live beyond 80? Remember that? When is this malignant growth going to shut his lying piehole? Does he forget that his son told the whole world that his dad used to travel to Asia for underage hoo-ha? Filth, utter filth.
This World Exclusive was on the front page of yesterday’s MoS based on TM considering a move?!! So nothing earth shattering just this sad old coot peddling the same ole trash about Meghan. He probably can’t afford to renew the lease and needs another payday from MoS. Tom Junior used to live with his mum and is now his dad’s “live in carer”.
TM could have loved honourably and well if only he hadn’t betrayed his daughter for interview cash. His ego was so pumped up in May 2018 when he was getting paid left, right and centre for interviews far and wide. He expected to cash in big by betraying and upsetting his daughter in the week of her very public wedding and yet still being taken back and be financially be looked after by her. After he’d comprehensively run amok by nonstop paid interviews Meghan wrote him a 5 page letter detailing how hurt she, Doria and Harry had been by his crappy behaviour. It was his final chance to redeem himself by responding with an apology and eternal public silence. He wrote back demanding a photo op with her and Harry!! He eventually gave the letter to the MoS which led to a lengthy legal wrangle which saw Meghan miscarry. Yet here we are 6 years with TM whining again to MoS for payment to trash his daughter again. He lost a loving daughter through constant betrayal and no amount of tabloid cash can compensate for her loss.
I mean geographically speaking, Mexico IS a part of North America, so technically he is leaving America still.
Not that it matters either way, I just hope he stays gone. Loser.
There are vacancies in hell for Tom and the rest like him. He should go ahead and check in permanently
It’s a fitting end for this gross old man: to shuffle off to some distant country, hopefully where he won’t be heard of again.
Come on now, you don’t really believe that we’ve seen (and heard) the last of this old fossil, do you? In The Terminator movies, Arnold famously said, “I’ll be back.” Well, I think that as long as there’s a Meghan, this Tominator will “be back” too. Mark my words.
Consider them marked, Deb. There is no way we’ve seen or heard the last of this snake.
There will be a feature imo of tom at his new home.
And after he shuffles off this mortal coil, Tom Jr will step up with all sorts of stories about Tom Sr calling out piteously for Meghan and her children on his deathbed. That should be good for a couple of years of payout, and then the well will truly be dry.
Is Tom leaving because he is afraid he’ll be called to give testimony? Or is the DM getting him out of Dodge before he can testfy as to his relationship is with them and what he promised to do to obtain video or voice contact with Meghan or children pics?
Okay one correction, America is Canada, USA and Mexico. So no he hasn’t left America, he has left USA.
And no one in America cares.
America is the entire continent, from Canada down to Chile and Argentina.
That’s two continents. 😉 As long as we’re being picky.
North America is the continent that consists of Canada, U.S.A and Mexico. It’s not just ‘America’. The writer is implying the U.S.A.
You are correct BeanieBean! (South America is an entirely different continent)
People always say people from the US are terrible at geography and now I have proof. The America Is ONE continent. Saying that South America is a different continent is like saying Eastern Europe is not Europe, this is just dumb. America IS ONE continent, and he is leaving America, this is 100% accurate. The United States is one country IN the American continent. Everyone knows that. Unless you are from the US, bien sur
How convenient he’s moving just as Harry’s court case is about to start. One wonders if his name was among the palace email that were retrieved. Anyway what a shitty father he has been and still continues with his poor me.
Why does this site give this man oxygen by talking about him or articles related to him? He’s awful. For as much as everybody loves Meghan here, it does not track.
He’s going to Asia? There are 48 countries in Asia. Is he intimating that he will travelling around until he finds his spot? Afghanistan and Yemen (as two of the choices) should be fun.
For someone who is interested in finding kinder people he’s already off to a bad start by maintaining a relationship with racists that he let slip were working with him to “mess up the wedding… to stop the wedding”. Him continuing a relationship with a known confederate flag bragging racists who has attacked his biracial daughter since the beginning of her relationship with Harry and is friends with Camilla, is proof that he doesn’t know what kindness is or want it in his life. Then to side with the racist white daughter who referred to Meghan’s black mom as the maid and the white son who wore blackface to make fun of Meghan, he is really surrounding himself with people he deserves to be around and kindness isn’t any of their attributes.
It’s weird to me that Samantha has been quiet about this move. I always got the impression that she wanted to be the one to control Tom Sr’s moves.
She’s a narcissist who pretends that being wheelchair bound means she cannot travel despite travelling to Ireland to talk about Meghan, Italy to talk about Meghan, the U.K. to talk about and harass Meghan. But needed supposedly ailing Thomas to go to Florida for their stupid 60 minutes documentary. She can’t pipe up now and make him stay. Stay for what? For her? The whole time he was in Mexico she didn’t visit and he didn’t visit her either. They reunited for the documentary (again their lives revolve around Meghan).
Yes but she just seems the sort to want to control things. “Wheelchair bound” or not.
Half the world’s population lives in Asia. Who just says “moving to Asia?”
I don’t understand : one day is a frail old man who can’t leave his house and the next he’s moving across the world to Asia ?
Also why is he comparing himself to his daughter’s ex-husband ? That’s gross.
Mexico has serious problems, but being kind to the elderly is absolutely not one of them. He’s either a real jerk to the neighbors, or he thinks travel and a move to anywhere will make him like himself more. I’m guessing his real beef is that American ex-pats there don’t kowtow to him just because he’s got a royal son-in-law. Or they’re tired of his whining.
His problem is that he seems to have real antisocial behaviour. His house was boarded up before Harry and Meghan met. He was “friends” with unsavoury people. He doesn’t actually have any confidants which is why he has latched onto Caroline Graham who is happy to believe every word that comes out of his mouth without challenge. That is friendship to him.
Since Asian countries are known for their low cost high quality Senior care, it makes sense. Hopefully this is the last story
For their citizens. Some Countries are not doing aggressive health even for their Seniors.
He’s so pathetic! He thinks that trying to guilt trip Meghan or rather manipulate his estranged daughter in order to get some access to his grand kids and the Sussexes’ family photos to sell Daily Mail and the highest bidder will work. Good luck with that! Daily Mail is using him and he seems unaware or maybe he’s a willing participant.
