THOMAS Markle is considering coming to England in an attempt to make peace with his duchess daughter Meghan.

The 73-year-old says he is ready to fly from Mexico to London after almost two months without contact.

He fears he has been frozen out after a paparazzi picture scandal ahead of her wedding in May to Prince Harry, 33, which he missed due to heart problems.

But he is desperate to see 36-year-old Meghan amid concerns over the “pressure” she faces in her new role.

He told The Sun: “If I chose in a month, or couple of months, to go to En­g­land — I want to see my daughter. I’m thinking about it.

“I don’t care whether she is p***** off at me or not.

“I’m not going to wave flags and make a fool of my­self. I’d find a hotel room and try to reach them.”

The news comes a day after Thomas made a heartfelt plea to former Suits actress Meghan in The Sun On Sunday — telling her: “I love you and want to talk to you. Pick up the phone.”

But if the wall of silence from Kensington Palace continues, he is prepared to fly to Britain without a royal appointment.

Thomas added at his home in Rosarito, Mexico: “It’s sad that it’s got to this point. I’m sorry it’s come to this. Yes, some of it is my fault. But I’ve already made it clear that I’m paying for this for the rest of my life.”

The retired lighting direc­tor would also want to meet the Royal Family. He said: “I still want to meet the Queen. If she’ll meet Donald Trump, why not me?”

He went on: “I’d like to be treated by the royal family like Meghan’s father.

“I should be regarded with the respect of any other father of the bride.”
Kensington Palace dec­lined to comment last night.
