UK police say a letter containing “claims” about alleged offending by Meghan Markle’s father was sent to Meghan in early 2019, but was not shared with other law enforcement agencies. The Metropolitan Police (Met) says it received the letter in January 2019 and confirms it was passed on to Meghan, Duchess of Sussex.
Outlets covering the development focus on how the Met handled the letter’s information: what it received, when it received it, and whether details were circulated beyond Meghan. AP, The Independent, Free Malaysia Today and Channel NewsAsia report that police did not share details with other forces, while still confirming they passed the letter to Meghan.
One outlet’s coverage is more detail-light in the provided summary, but the reported core points remain consistent across sources: the existence of a letter with claims, its 2019 timing, and the police position that sharing with other law enforcement did not occur.
