Meghan Markle’s estranged father Thomas Markle Sr. is reportedly struggling at the age of 80 as the former Hollywood lighting director has moved out of Mexico as per The Mirror. He stays in a $660 per month high-rise apartment in the Philippines. A photo of him sitting outside a supermarket in his new home appeared raising concerns over the living conditions as Philippines’ Cebu is particularly known for its bad weather.
Meghan Markle’s half-brother Thomas Markle Jr. is staying with him in Cebu, and as per the locals, as quoted by UK Mirror, they recently moved to the Philippines and are still struggling to find their feet in the new city.
“Thomas and his son only recently moved into the property and they are still finding their feet in Cebu after the big move abroad, but they’re here together and are firmly supporting each other,” one told Mirror.“
There are only two types of weather in Cebu: hot and humid, and hot and humid and raining. It’s brutal even for men half his age, but it’s still sad to see him looking as though he’s struggling,” Mirror reported citing the same person.
Thomas has had two heart attacks and a stroke in recent years and now must deal with the tropical island’s punishing heat. Temperatures this week reached 33C and humidity levels almost 90%. The regional Emmy award-winner has been seen using a walking stick to help him get around the area’s uneven roads and paths, many of which are affected by constant traffic and the unforgiving climate.
