Meghan Markle has released a statement amid the shocking allegations against her father, Thomas Markle. Per People, “Thomas Markle’s son claimed to have found ‘hundreds, if not thousands’ of explicit images involving children in his father’s home.” The claims were made in a report from The Sun published on Thursday, October 22. Meghan released a statement to Us Weekly early Friday morning, saying “I am deeply distressed at the news that has come to light in the last 24 hours, and my thoughts are with any children who may have been harmed.
In 2018, a letter was sent to the Metropolitan Police and Royalty and Specialist Protection. That letter was subsequently shared with me. It made troubling and disturbing allegations against my father and I was given assurances that these were being investigated.”She added, “I hope it can now be understood that, despite certain media publications’ distortion over the years, any distance from my father and my choice to not allow him to have contact with our children, was for one reason: to protect them.
I trusted that the authorities were doing the same for other families.” Meghan concluded her statement with “Although the breadth of what has now been uncovered is more sickening than one could ever imagine, my sincerest hope is that justice will be fully served and that the priority remains the safety and protection of innocent children.”
