They did not comment any further.
Mr. Markle told TMZ that he suffered a heart attack six days ago, but that he discharged himself from hospital so he could travel for the wedding.
However, the publication reports that the 73-year-old has decided not to go because he doesn’t want to “embarrass” his daughter.
The photos depicted Markle apparently preparing for his daughter’s wedding this weekend.
Meghan and Harry will marry this Saturday, May 19 in St George’s Chapel in the grounds of Windsor.
