Meghan’s Half Brother Named as ‘Person of Interest’ in Child Abuse Image Claims

Police say investigators recovered about 7,500 images and one video, and are examining whether Thomas Markle Jr. may also be linked to the case.

  • Interior Minister Juanito Victor Remulla announced today that the Philippine police inquiry into Thomas Markle Snr has widened to include his son, Thomas Markle Jnr, as a person of interest in an alleged child sexual abuse investigation.
  • Authorities in the Philippines discovered child abuse images at Markle Snr's apartment, while the Mexican Guardia Nacional raided his Rosarito, Mexico, storage facility on Saturday after the Daily Mail reported its contents.
  • Markle Jnr told the FBI the location of two storage units in Los Angeles containing his father's memorabilia and possessions from Meghan's college days, prompting federal investigators to search both locations.
  • Remulla stated there are "indications suggesting that the son may also be involved," citing witness reports that underage girls were brought to the house, though he emphasized the son remains only a person of interest.
  • Markle Snr, now in the United States, has denied the allegations as "sick lies," while authorities continue examining more than 7,000 images discovered across both countries as the investigation proceeds.
