The letter reached Thomas Markle Sr, 82, in December 2025 as he lay in a Cebu hospital bed after his leg was amputated. Philippine interior minister Jonvic Remulla now says 'all signs point to a possible sex offender of the grossest kind', with forensic results due within a week. Markle denies possessing child abuse images and calls the claims 'sick lies'. The Met is reviewing why it never shared a 2019 warning with other police forces.

Half-brother Thomas Markle Jr says he found the images and reported them to police.

Markle admits paying for sex in the Philippines but denies sleeping with under-age girls.

A Meghan friend says she was told to stay quiet and 'it appears nothing was done'.
