The tennis world is buzzing after the release of Roger Federer’s much-anticipated documentary, “Federer 12 Final Days.”
This film doesn’t just celebrate his illustrious career; it delves deep into his personal life, unveiling layers that fans have never seen before.
Among the revelations, Federer makes some startling claims about Meghan Markle‘s mother, Doria Ragland, that are sending shockwaves through both the sports and royal communities.
The documentary kicks off with Federer reflecting on his retirement from professional tennis, a decision he describes as one of the toughest he ever faced.
“I had achieved everything I ever dreamed of in the sport, but I still felt there was more I wanted to accomplish,” he shares.
Ultimately, he realized that both his body and mind were urging him to step away from the game he loves.
As the film progresses, viewers are treated to an intimate glimpse into Federer’s final weeks on the ATP Tour.
He shares candid moments from his preparation, matches, and interactions with fans, painting a bittersweet picture of a champion coming to terms with his departure from the sport.
The emotional weight of these moments resonates deeply, allowing fans to connect with Federer on a personal level.
However, the tone shifts dramatically when Federer begins to discuss his relationship with Meghan Markle and her family.
He reveals that he has known the Duchess of Sussex for many years, often crossing paths at various tournaments.
“Meghan and I were actually quite close at one point,” he recalls, reminiscing about their chats and practice sessions.
But things took a turn when he met her mother, Doria Ragland.
From their first encounter, Federer sensed something unsettling about Doria.
“There was a coldness to her that I couldn’t quite put my finger on,” he admits.
His friendship with Meghan began to sour as he alleges that Doria was manipulating situations to serve her own agenda, particularly as Meghan’s fame escalated.
“Doria was very calculated in the way she handled Meghan’s rise to fame,” Federer claims, suggesting a hidden hand behind the scenes.
As the documentary unfolds, Federer describes Ragland’s behavior as increasingly erratic.
He recounts instances where she would call him inebriated, making bizarre allegations about the royal family.
“There were times when Doria would call me drunk and rambling,” he recalls, painting a picture of a woman who seemed overwhelmed by the pressures surrounding her daughter.
Perhaps the most alarming claim made by Federer is that Doria has a criminal past that she has kept under wraps.
“I stumbled upon some information that suggests Doria has a history of violent outbursts and run-ins with the law,” he states.
This revelation raises serious questions about Doria’s influence on Meghan and the dynamics within their relationship.
The fallout from these allegations has been immediate and intense.
Buckingham Palace has chosen to remain silent, while representatives for Meghan Markle have labeled Federer’s claims as “completely false and defamatory.” Yet, some experts in royal affairs suggest that there may be a grain of truth to what Federer has disclosed.
Royal commentator Dickie Arbiter noted, “Roger Federer is not the type of person to make these kinds of accusations lightly.” He emphasized that Federer’s strong feelings about his experiences warrant serious consideration.
Meanwhile, journalist Victoria Murphy pointed out the timing of the documentary’s release, which coincides with Meghan’s memoir, hinting at possible ulterior motives behind Federer’s revelations.
Regardless of the motivations, the documentary has undeniably cast a shadow over Meghan’s relationship with her mother.
Questions are now swirling about Doria Ragland’s past and her role in shaping Meghan’s life and career.
In the film’s closing moments, Federer acknowledges the controversy surrounding his statements.
“I know these allegations are going to be controversial and divisive,” he says, “but I believe the truth needs to be told, no matter how uncomfortable it may be.”
As this saga unfolds, one thing is clear: “Federer 12 Final Days” has left an indelible mark on both the tennis world and the royal family, reshaping narratives and raising eyebrows across the globe.
