Thomas Markle, the father of Meghan Markle, was arrested by the FBI in Florida on November 6 on suspicion of possessing child sexual abuse material, according to E! News. The arrest marks the conclusion of an investigation into the 81 year old, who has long had a strained and publicly documented relationship with his daughter.
According to Page Six, Meghan Markle and Prince Harry do not plan to issue any public statement regarding the arrest. The couple has largely kept Thomas Markle at arm's length in recent years amid a well publicized family rift that began around the time of Meghan's 2018 wedding to Harry.
Details of the case remain limited, and neither E! News nor Page Six reported additional specifics on the charges or ongoing legal proceedings at this time.
