There are reports Meghan Markle's father won't now be walking her down the aisle, or attending her wedding at all.

The report comes from entertainment website TMZ

It says Thomas Markle suffered a heart attack six days ago, but had checked himself out of the hospital in order to attend the royal wedding.

However, he's now decided not to go after it was revealed that he staged several photo-shoots with a paparazzi agency ahead of the wedding.

According to TMZ, he says that he will not attend because he does not want to embarrass Meghan or the royal family.
