Summary
The FBI said it is aware of allegations against Thomas Markle Sr. and will support Philippine authorities as appropriate while examining any related potential U.S. federal violations.
The Cebu investigation began after Thomas Markle Jr. told detectives he found “hundreds, if not thousands” of child sexual abuse files at his father’s home; police are preparing to seize evidence.
Thomas Markle Sr. denied the claims, calling them lies, while Samantha Markle said Thomas Jr. fabricated the details.
Meghan Markle said she received similar information in 2018 and that concerns about protecting her children were a reason for keeping distance from her father.
