Thomas said that it is every girl's dream to become a princess and Meghan got that opportunity but she is tossing that away. 

Harry and Meghan dropped a bombshell when they announced on January 9 that they are intending to quit royal duties and become financially independent.

A part of Thomas's interview was released by the channel and full documentary would be aired in the coming weeks. 

Thomas and Meghan remain estranged since her marriage to Harry.

Thomas also said that he did not expect Meghan to contact him and called the couple "lost souls".

"I can't see her reaching out to me, especially now ... or Harry for that matter, but I think both of them are turning into lost souls at this point," he said.

"I don't know what they're looking for. I don't think they know what they are looking for."
