Meghan Markle, the Duchess of Sussex, has revealed her reasoning behind keeping her children away from her estranged father, Thomas Markle, following disturbing allegations she discovered in 2018. The allegations, which reported the presence of child sexual abuse imagery at Thomas Markle's former home in the Philippines, led to a letter being sent to the Metropolitan Police.

She clarified that the decision to maintain distance from her father was to shield them from potential harm. The investigation is under the jurisdiction of an anti-human trafficking and child sexual exploitation task force in Cebu, Philippines.
