Story summary

On November 6, 2026, Thomas Markle Sr, the father of Duchess Meghan Markle, was arrested by the FBI in Florida for allegedly possessing child pornography. He had recently moved to a dementia care home after his son reported finding child sex abuse images among his belongings while he lived in the Philippines. Markle Sr., 82, left the Philippines and entered a rehabilitation center in the US following health issues including a stroke and leg amputation. The arrest complicates the FBI's investigation due to his current residence in a care facility for dementia patients.
