Thomas Markle Sr., the estranged father of Meghan Markle, Duchess of Sussex, has moved into a modest $500-a-month apartment on the island of Cebu in the Philippines. According to reports, the 80-year-old former Hollywood lighting director, once based in Mexico, now lives under the care of his son, Thomas Markle Jr., and says he's seeking peace in his later years.
Speaking to the media ahead of the move, Thomas said he was ready for a change. 'I have felt stuck in a rut for some time,' he admitted. 'I'm ready to meet new people and experience kindness.' His new home is reportedly quieter, more affordable, and offers better access to medical care—something he values highly at this stage in life.
