## Summary

The Philippines is examining devices belonging to Thomas Markle after his son reported finding child sexual abuse images at their former home. Markle denies wrongdoing, while the country’s interior minister says investigators expect to complete their forensic analysis in about a week and will take legal action if evidence warrants it.

The article also reports that a 2019 letter to the Metropolitan Police from Markle’s late first wife, Roslyn Loveless, alleged he had said he travelled to the Philippines and Thailand because “12-year-olds are legal there”. The police reportedly did not investigate because the alleged conduct took place outside Britain. Markle’s son says he found images on a phone and computer, including material involving children said to be as young as ten or 11.
