The feminist Germaine Greer did say that it was deliberate that Mr Markle would not walk down the aisle with his daughter. Meghan was said to be upset but I wonder if she, herself, even wanted him there beside her.

I don’t think it’s just a question of race but class also. Both sides of the families simply cannot be included in this arrangement.

I also wish Meghan the best, but it is really is best, if you a member of your family near, as you never know.
