Despite the fact the Duchess of Sussex’s mum, Doria Ragland arrived in the UK nearly two weeks ago ahead of the birth of the royal baby, given Meghan’s strained relationship with her father, it is unclear whether he will be granted the chance to meet his grandchild.

While some have speculated that the arrival of Meghan’s first child will thaw the relationship with Markle Snr, royal commentator Victoria Arbiter believes it is unlikely Thomas or Meghan’s half-siblings will be gifted the opportunity.

"I think her family have tried to cash in, they have sold her out no matter the cost, they've proven they can't keep a secret," she tells 9Honey.

"Thomas Markle has repeatedly gone to the media about his daughter, he's done things in a really seedy fashion in terms of selling stories to the press,” she continued.

"Meghan is going to want to make sure this baby knows nothing but love and support ... Why bring anyone in, at the moment, certainly, that has the potential to be toxic?"

"She could have him come meet the new baby in their new house, and the next day he could be on breakfast television in the UK telling everyone everything," Arbiter says.

"Why have the stress?"
