Harry and Meghan to visit Brussels in wake of allegations facing duchess’ father

The couple will give a rare joint address on children’s digital safety and join a panel at the Lost Screen Memorial, organisers said.

  • The Duke and Duchess of Sussex will visit Brussels next week to deliver a keynote address at The Lost Screen Memorial, an installation outside the European Parliament honoring children harmed by social media.
  • Public appearances resume amid allegations concerning Meghan's father, Thomas Markle Sr., after his son Thomas Markle Jr. reportedly discovered suspected child abuse imagery in their father's former Philippines home and alerted the FBI.
  • Thomas Markle Sr. denied possessing child abuse imagery, calling the accusations "sick lies." Meghan previously stated she was "deeply distressed" by allegations her father faced, referencing a 2018 letter sent to Scotland Yard.
  • The Sussexes will deliver a dual-address lasting between 15 and 20 minutes focused on children's digital safety. Prince Harry will additionally join a panel discussion titled "Beyond Promises: Building A Digital Future That Works For Children."
  • Previously, the royal couple opened similar installations in New York City and Geneva honoring children lost to social media harm. European Parliament president Roberta Metsola is expected to attend the Brussels event.
