@dailymailuk: Meghan Markle ‘deeply distressed’ by allegations against father Thomas Markle The Duchess of Sussex has broken her silence after reports emerged that her father, Thomas Markle, is being investigated over allegations he kept child s*xual abuse images at his property. He has denied possessing the images, describing the accusations as 'sick lies'. Meghan said she had been made aware of 'troubling and disturbing allegations' by the Metropolitan Police in 2018 and was assured they were being investigated. She added that her decision to distance herself from her father and not allow him contact with her children was made 'for one reason: to protect them'. Meghan said her 'sincerest hope' was that justice would be served and the safety of children remained the priority.
