Thomas Markle also said that Meghan had tried to call him Monday, but he missed her call. He said she sent him a text saying she loved him and was worried about his health, and that she was not angry about the staged paparazzi photo shoot.
It remains unconfirmed who will end up walking Markle down the aisle in Windsor on Saturday, but most royal watchers believe it will be her mother Doria Ragland, who is close to her daughter and is said to have liked Prince Harry when she met him.
Ragland will be stay with her daughter at a nearby hotel the night before the wedding, and then accompany her to the church on Saturday morning.
While uncommon, there is precedent for a royal bride to be walked down the aisle on wedding day; Queen Victoria carried out the duty for two of her daughters, Princess Helena in 1866 and Princess Beatrice in 1885. Queen Victoria's husband Prince Albert died prior to those ceremonies.
