Identity of officer who advised Meghan over abuse claims may remain unknown
A former Metropolitan Police royal protection officer says the identity of an officer who allegedly advised Meghan Markle not to publicise child abuse allegations about her father may never be established. The claims matter because the Met’s handling of the letter, and its reported failure to alert other law enforcement agencies, is being investigated by the Independent Office for Police Conduct (IOPC).
The Met has reportedly been unable to trace the officer, who was said to have promised an investigation; a former protection officer suggested the person may have retired and that the inquiry could continue for years. Meghan’s spokesman has not said whether she supplied a name. The article also reports that Meghan’s niece, Noel Rasmussen, says she unknowingly mailed the letter at her grandmother’s request, and describes recently discovered material linked to Thomas Markle that has prompted reports to authorities in Mexico and the Philippines.
In short
- The IOPC is examining the Met’s handling of a letter sent to Meghan.
- A former officer says the bodyguard’s identity may remain unknown.
- Meghan’s niece says she mailed the letter without knowing its contents.
Explained simply
Meghan Markle is a member of the British royal family and the daughter of Thomas Markle. Before her marriage to Prince Harry, she had a strained relationship with her father, and allegations of child abuse linked to him became part of a wider dispute.
The Metropolitan Police, known as the Met, is the police force for London. The Independent Office for Police Conduct investigates complaints and concerns about how police handle their duties; its inquiry is examining the Met’s response to a letter connected with the allegations.
The case also involves questions about whether information was passed to other law enforcement agencies. The officer’s identity matters because investigators may need to establish what advice was given and how the Met dealt with it.
