Meghan Markle has announced a special Father's Day surprise with a heartfelt message amid rift with her dad, Thomas Markle.
In a newsletter to her lifestyle brand, As Ever's customers and subscribers on June 14, The Duchess of Sussex penned a sweet note for "dad" to promote her Father's Day stock celebrated on Sunday, June 21, this year.
The message titled, Say thanks to Dad, Meghan wrote, "Whether you need a simple way to say ‘thank you’ to Dad or simply want to create a comforting morning moment — breakfast in bed is the perfect treat."
She continued, "Gather your favourite morning baked goods (we love a buttery, flaky croissant) and serve with a dab of salted butter and a swipe of our Strawberry Spread."
"Add a slice of a favourite fresh fruit, and pour a steaming cup of coffee or Herbal Lemon Ginger Tea. Breakfast served bedside with a warm smile and a loving hug is a simple way to remind those we love how special they are," added the wife of Prince Harry.
This message from the former Suits actress came amid her ongoing rift with Thomas - who underwent a leg amputation last year.
Therefore, Meghan's message did not sit well with her critics as they called it a "bad idea."
Famous X account, Royal News Network, noted, “This is the worst idea for a Father’s Day promotion, but it’s Meghan Markle’s As Ever, so it’s par for the course. This reeks and screams woman, not man.”
They added that the “vast majority of the male population has zero interest in her slop.”
