Thomas Markle Sr., the father of Meghan, the Duchess of Sussex, was arrested by federal authorities in Florida on Friday on charges of child sexual abuse material, according to the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Central District of California.
Markle’s arrest follows a report last month that claimed he was being investigated by authorities in the Philippines for allegedly possessing child sex abuse material, following claims made by his son, Thomas Markle Jr., Meghan’s half-brother.
