Thomas Markle, the father of Meghan Markle, wife of Prince Harry, was arrested by federal agents in Florida on Friday morning over alleged offences related to child sexual abuse material, according to a report by The Associated Press (AP). Markle was taken into custody near Tampa, Florida.
\n\nThe arrest was confirmed to AP by people familiar with the matter, who spoke on condition of anonymity as they were not authorised to publicly discuss the investigation.
\n\nMeghan Markle recently said she was "deeply distressed" by allegations that a collection of child sexual abuse images had been found at her father's former home. She also revealed that a letter containing "troubling allegations" about him had been sent to London police in 2018.

\n\nHer father, a retired television lighting and photography director, did not attend the wedding, prompting extensive coverage in the British media of Meghan's estrangement from her father.
