Thomas Markle says Meghan did not call him after baby Lilibet's birth

Thomas Markle, father of Meghan Markle, said the Duchess did not inform him after welcoming her daughter Lilibet Diana.

The 76-year-old retired Hollywood lighting director said that he is in no contact with her. So much so, that he heard about baby Lili's birth on the radio.

"No phone calls," Meghan's estranged father said. "I just heard it on the radio."

Thomas also revealed what he thinks about Meghan and Harry naming their daughter Lili.

"Lily is a perfect name," Thomas said, "and the other thing that makes me happy is now there's a lot more Markle blood in the royal family. All I can say is I hope I get to eventually, sometime see these grandchildren of mine because I'm a pretty good grandpa."
