- The Met is conducting internal inquiries into whether officers from its Royalty and Specialist Protection Command shared a letter detailing the allegations with Meghan in 2018.
- The allegations reportedly stem from claims made by Meghan's half-brother, Thomas Markle Jr, regarding illicit images allegedly found at their father's former home.
- Meghan stated that her decision to distance herself from her father was to protect her children, while Thomas Markle Sr and his daughter Samantha strongly denied the accusations.
