Markle appealed for people to give Thomas Markle “the space he needs to focus on his health” amid reports he had had a heart procedure.
The palace said Friday that Markle’s future father-in-law, the heir to the British throne, would walk Markle down the aisle at St. George’s Chapel in Windsor on Saturday. The palace says he “is pleased to be able to welcome Ms. Markle to the Royal Family in this way.” /jpv
