Shocking statement from Duchess Meghan! The Duchess of Sussex and wife of Prince Harry has confirmed that she was confronted as early as 2018 with serious allegations of pedophilia against her father, Thomas. 

In her statement to the British newspaper *The Sun*, Meghan said: “I am deeply shaken by the news that has come to light over the past 24 hours, and my thoughts are with all the children who may have been harmed.”

“In 2018, a letter was sent to the Metropolitan Police and the Royal Protection Service. That letter was subsequently leaked to me. Disturbing and upsetting allegations were made against my father, and I was assured that they would be investigated,” the Duchess said.

Meghan wanted to protect her children
She continued: “I hope it can now be understood that, despite the distortions in some media reports over the past few years, any distance I’ve kept from my father and my decision not to allow him contact with our children had a single reason: to protect them.”

Thomas Markle was supposed to walk his daughter down the aisle at the wedding in Windsor, but he canceled his attendance for health reasons. The former lighting technician has never met his grandchildren, Archie and Lilibet. 

“Although the extent of what has now been revealed is more repulsive than one could ever imagine, my sincerest hope is that justice will be fully served and that the safety and protection of innocent children will continue to be the top priority,” Meghan also stated.

Boxes Full of Child Abuse Material
On Friday, serious allegations of pedophilia against Duchess Meghan’s father came to light after Meghan’s half-brother, Thomas Jr., discovered four large boxes in his father’s home containing “hundreds, if not thousands,” of images depicting child abuse and contacted the police.

Thomas Markle Sr. denies the allegations made by his daughter Samantha, who has publicly and harshly criticized her brother. Meanwhile, according to the British “Sun,” the FBI confirmed receiving an affidavit regarding the discovery and announced an investigation. 

There have been no statements from Prince Harry or the British royal family regarding the shocking revelations. King Charles’s younger son moved back to England with his wife and two children at the end of August after spending six years in the U.S. In an interview a few weeks ago, he stated his desire to reconcile with his father, Charles, and his brother, William.
