Meghan Markle is given a golden chance to heal her rift with estranged father, Thomas Markle.
The Duchess of Sussex, who is reportedly trying to contact her ailing dad after his urgent leg amputation, is told to respect boundaries for greater healing.
Family counselling expert, Dr Jane Halsall, tells Mirror: "Public statements against their wishes, as in this case, can intensify this tension.
"Healing relies on respecting boundaries, careful communication, and therapeutic support. If there is estrangement within a family, then it takes time to heal and resilience - the effort to balance love, concern, and self-protection while maintaining psychological well-being for yourself."
Dr Halsall added: "Estrangement between adult children and parents is emotionally painful, often arising from boundary violations or disappointment.
