"The spokesperson said that Graham, who works for the Daily Mail, had been by the ailing man's bedside since last week, broadcasting each interaction and breaching clear ethical boundaries. It remains to be seen whether this accusation against the Daily Mail reporter will end suggestions that Meghan was hoping to ignore her father's health emergency or will alleviate the public relations crisis that has been swirling around her team's disjointed response to his hospitalization and surgery."
"Due to her rift with her father, the Duchess of Sussex apparently didn't feel as though she could just pick up the phone and call him after he was rushed to the hospital not without the fear that the conversation would be leaked to the media, according to Feminegra.com magazine. But her team also hasn't helped matters by issuing non-responsive, vague or conflicting statements about any efforts she made to each out to him, Sykes added."
Meghan Markle sent a letter to her estranged 81-year-old father, Thomas Markle, marking their first contact in seven years after his emergency hospitalization in the Philippines and below-knee amputation. Her spokesperson confirmed delivery to his hospital room and accused Daily Mail reporter Caroline Graham of staying at his bedside, broadcasting interactions and breaching ethical boundaries, which allegedly prevented earlier private contact. The situation has fueled a public relations crisis around Meghan's uneven responses and the timing of her Netflix Christmas special. Sources report she has been estranged from her father since 2018 and that her team's vague or conflicting statements have compounded criticism.
