Media, Meghan wanted to report her father for abuse but was stopped by the royal guards

Meghan Markle would have liked to make public the allegations of child sexual abuse against her father, but the royal bodyguards of the Metropolitan Police would have advised her against doing so. Several British media outlets write this, including the Daily Mail.

The revelation comes after Scotland Yard confirmed it had given the Duchess of Sussex, 45, a letter containing allegations against Thomas Markle, 82, in January 2019, but without notifying other law enforcement agencies. In the seven-page letter, Markle's first wife, Roslyn Loveless, accused the former Hollywood lighting technician of child sexual abuse and said he regularly traveled to the Philippines and Thailand because she claimed "12-year-olds are considered adults there."

The letter from Loveless, who died in 2024, was examined by the royal protection team before being passed to the Duke and Duchess of Sussex's office at Kensington Palace for "briefing". It has now emerged that Meghan wanted to speak out about the allegations, which last week she described as "disturbing and upsetting". However, one of her Royalty and Specialist Protection (RaSP) bodyguards reportedly told her: "Leave it to us, we'll investigate."

The same agent advised Meghan not to make the affair public at a time when she was being criticized for having severed relations with her father without any explanation.

The Metropolitan Police, which has not launched any investigation against Markle because the crimes he is accused of were committed abroad, is still trying to identify and trace the officer in question, according to the Times.
