and his feelings during this —— mr markle.ing the queen and that sort of thing. he says he did the interview because he wants to show that he is "a regular, normal guy". what more did he say? he spoke a bit about politics and harry and all sorts of stuff. only in passing. he says that in the conversations that he had on the phone with harry, mr markle says he was complaining about not liking donald trump. and harry said, apparently, give donald trump a chance. there was also some kind of reference to brexit and mr markle said he thinks he, the duke of sussex, was open to the experiment. which i think is the kind of noncommittal answer you would expect a senior royal to give on such a sensitive issue, if somebody tries to engage him in conversation about that. the main point, i'm sure, that mr markle wanted to make is that he had wanted to be there, to walk his daughter down the aisle. apparently, he had these heart problems but he was watching it on television and he said he was very proud and very upset not to have been there

mr. markle touched on a lot in that interview. you feel for him as you listen to him there. e did have he to say? >> it was a wide ranging interview covering everything from meghan markle as a young girl and why he calls her bean, all the way through to the time she told him she was dating prince harry. what strikes you when you watch that interview is how unmedia savvy thomas markle is, because he looks down a lot, he doesn't look down the barrel of the camera, he holds on to his ear piece a lot. he's used to being behind the camera and not in the spotlight, which is possibly why we had such a -- around the media around him. but he did say how sad he was not to have made the wedding and how he had actually prepared for it. listen to what he said about that. >> i worked on a little speech and little speech actually had the phone calls that i talked about, talking to harry and how meghan introduced him as this guy, this nice guy from england, this prince. and that was part of the story and i went on to basically thank the royal family for opening up to my child. i feel bad she
