Meghan Markle’s ‘big mistake’ was ‘most stupid thing she’s ever done’ – brother
Leaving the Royal Family was the "most stupid thing Meghan Markle's done", according to a family member.
The Duchess of Sussex's estranged brother Thomas Markle Jnr believes the move was a "big mistake".
Thomas is the half-brother of Meghan Markle as they share the same dad, though they have been estranged for some time.
Meghan and her husband Prince Harry announced on January 8 last year that they would step back from senior positions within the Firm following talks at Sandringham with Prince Charles, Prince William, and the Queen.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have relocated with their son, Archie, to California, where they have since been joined by newborn daughter Lilibet.
The Duchess of Sussex turns 40 on Wednesday, but on her birthday last year her half-brother lashed out at Meghan for not wishing their father a happy 76th birthday.
Speaking to the Express, he said: "My father said leaving the Royal Family in the UK is the most stupid thing Meghan's done. He is very worried about her."
Tom Jnr, 54, who speaks to his dad every day, added to the Mirror : “As far as a reunion goes, he’s given up on Meghan and Harry completely.
“He doesn’t trust her and doesn’t want to know that person because of the lies, manipulation and deceit. He just had his 76th birthday – needless to say, he didn’t hear from Meghan.”

Thomas Markle JR was reportedly spotted at Sydney Airport recently, leading to speculation he may be about to enter Big Brother VIP.
A Channel Seven spokesperson told Daily Mail Australia: "We are not commenting on speculation about the cast of Big Brother VIP.
"All will be revealed soon and Big Brother is looking forward to meeting the new collection of housemates."

Thomas Markle Snr, who has reportedly not spoken to his daughter since before her Windsor Castle wedding, recently said he was taking legal action against his daughter because he allegedly hasn't been allowed to see his grandchildren.
Announcing his intention to file for visitation, Thomas previously said: "We shouldn’t be punishing [Lili] for Meghan and Harry’s bad behaviour.
"Archie and Lili are small children. They’re not politics. They’re not pawns. They’re not part of the game. And they’re also royal and entitled to the same rights as any other royal.
"I will be petitioning the California courts for the rights to see my grandchildren in the very near future."
