Thomas Markle’s ex-wife sent 2019 letter shared with Meghan warning of his alleged child abuse: sources

Key Points:

• Thomas Markle Sr.’s first wife, Roslyn Loveless, sent a letter in 2019 to London’s Metropolitan Police alleging child abuse by him, which was later shared with his daughter Meghan Markle, causing her distress.
• Thomas Markle Sr. is currently under police investigation after his son, Thomas Markle Jr., reportedly handed over a large cache of child pornography found at Thomas Sr.’s former home in the Philippines.
• Thomas Markle Sr. denies all allegations, calling them “sick lies,” while Meghan’s half-sister Samantha Markle defends their father and accuses Thomas Jr. of fabricating claims for financial gain.
• Loveless previously described Thomas Sr. as an abusive and untrustworthy father, citing drug use, infidelity, and emotional abuse during their marriage, and warned Meghan against allowing him contact with her children.
• The Metropolitan Police confirmed the letter was sent to Meghan in January 2019, clarifying a minor discrepancy in the timeline, and sources say Meghan was advised to remain silent publicly to avoid affecting ongoing legal proceedings.
