Thomas Markle’s ex-wife wrote ‘paedophile’ letter to cops

Philippine police are investigating a laptop discovered alongside child abuse imagery at the former residence of Meghan Markle's estranged father, Thomas Markle. According to Philippine Interior Minister Jonvic Remulla, full results from the investigation are expected within a week. The laptop is currently under forensic examination.

Remulla stated that the Philippine National Police (PNP) inspected the former home of Thomas Markle upon receiving a report from his son. The laptop, found among boxes, contains child pornography materials. The PNP will coordinate with relevant authorities to take legal action against Markle if sufficient evidence is found to charge him.

The Sun first reported last week that Thomas Markle Jr. had discovered the child abuse images while sorting through items in his father's former home. Meghan Markle expressed her "deep distress" over the allegations, stating she had blocked contact between her father and her children over previous "troubling and disturbing" allegations.

She also mentioned that in 2018, she had seen a letter sent to London's Metropolitan Police and Royal Protection, alleging similar accusations against her father, for which she received assurances that the investigation was ongoing.

London's Metropolitan Police acknowledged receiving the information but did not share it with other law enforcement agencies. The royal couple separated in 2020 due to a longstanding feud, and they made a surprise return to the UK with their children in August.
