Meghan Markle's estranged father Thomas has claimed that he's too old and frail to pose any threat to famed paparazzo Jeff Rayner that would necessitate a restraining order.

Thomas Markle has asked a judge to terminate the 2-year restraining order put in place last month, claiming Jeff lied about him having a gun.

In his request, Harry's father-in-law writes: "I am no threat to anyone because I'm 78 years old," adding he's had "2 heart attacks, one stroke, and have a cane for walking," according to docs obtained by TMZ.

But, the paparazzo says he still needs the protection because he thinks Thomas has nothing to lose. Jeff fired back in his own legal docs, saying Markle's age and poor health are the exact reasons why he's still worried. He believes Markle has nothing to lose because his time is running out anyway.

He points to Markle's OG threat which read, "If they tell me I've got terminal cancer, then I'll kill [Jeff] because I have nothing to lose."

It's to mention here that the co-owner of the news agency Coleman-Rayner got the restraining order against Thomas last month after the alleged threat was revealed in Tom Bower's book, "Revenge: Meghan, Harry and the War Between The Windsors."
