Thomas Markle Jr. is a ‘person of interest’ to the authorities in the Philippines

Quelle surprise, the White Markles are not all they seem. Two weeks ago, Thomas Markle Jr. suddenly “found” a large stash of child-abuse images in his father’s apartment in the Philippines. Junior was stunned and appalled, and he immediately contacted the authorities and the Sun, the British tabloid. The Sun led the reporting, with extensive interviews from Junior, and widespread credit going to Junior for turning in his father. The problem? Junior and Senior literally moved to the Philippines together and they were together for enough time that it’s pretty doubtful that any of this came as a shock to Junior. At the very least, you know? Well, obvious update is obvious, it looks like Junior is a “person of interest” for the authorities as well.

Meghan Markle’s half-brother was named a “person of interest” amid an ongoing probe into illegal activities involving their father, Thomas Markle Sr., according to authorities in the Philippines.

The country’s interior secretary, Juanito Victor Remulla, said at a press conference in Manila, “There are indications suggesting that the son may also be involved in the crime. But only as a person of interest so far, he is not yet treated as a suspect,” according to The Telegraph.

Remulla indicated that witnesses told police that underage girls had been brought to Thomas Jr.’s home in the Philippines. Thomas Jr., 60, told police he was “merely doing TikTok [videos],” Remulla said, per the outlet.

It was Thomas Jr. who reported his father, 82, to authorities after he claimed to have discovered child p—graphic material at Thomas Sr.’s home in the Philippines.

“…Witnesses told police that underage girls had been brought to Thomas Jr.’s home in the Philippines…” Did the witnesses have cameras? Were they paparazzi? Because after Junior and Senior’s move to the Philippines, paparazzi captured photos of both men with what appeared to be young teenagers. The photos were published in the British press – I remember seeing those pics and thinking “well, we can guess why father and son moved there.” What’s interesting is that I bet all of those photos are being buried as we speak. Anyway… I never believed that Senior’s depravity came as a shock to his son, or that Junior only learned of it in October.

    I wondered when this shoe would drop – it’s become obvs he was turning his father in to save his own skin.

    • NoBS Please says:

      It’s mind-boggling that Junior thought he could get away with being a paedo just because he blew the whistle on his paedo dad!

      Does he think the authorities are that stupid? I say ‘that’ because they clearly have been either staggeringly incompetent or wilfully so, in this entire Paedo Markles affair.

    I wondered why he had gone quiet after dropping a douzy of a bombshell, and even then i thought kettle meet pot we have already seen pic of you with girls, so what gives. it will be interesting to see how all this shakes out. i’m not sure what prison is like in the philippines and can he hack it. LOL. Daddy has got dementia so he isnt going down. talk about an own goal from a not very bright person. Was this just a money grab for him?

    • ABritGuest says:

      Would love to see all of these vicious markles go down & it would be great karma if tom jnr got himself in trouble whilst bringing his father down too

      Tom jnr revealed his father’s ‘sex tourism’ in 2018 & if he was acting as his father’s carer I wouldn’t be surprised if he knew about his appalling CSA content for a while. I think after they fell out (probably over money) Tom jnr was probably looking in Tom snr’s files for Meghan related content to sell. I bet that’s why he got in touch with the Sun initially

  3. lady digby says:

    The Sun are currently caping for Junior and “explaining the misunderstanding as follows”:
    But The Sun has learned the claim was made by a neighbour of the Cordova house who had actually seen young relatives of Markle Jnr’s Filipina fiancée at the property.

    Markle Jnr’s partner of two-years Rose has today told police that her younger siblings aged 11, 14, 16, and 17, are regular visitors to her and Markle Jr at the property, as well as a young three-year-old niece.

    The children regularly come along with other adults as part of a family visit.

    She showed officers several TikTok videos she and her siblings made inside and outside the house.

    • lady digby says:

      I read that Rose is supposedly 28? So that IS a big gap if her siblings are 11, 14,16 and 17?
      She looks far younger than 28 in the photos of her and 60 year old Junior?

      • Myself says:

        There are often huge gaps in sibling ages, esp if multiple parents are involved. Isn’t Tom Jr 20yrs older than Meghan?

        And also as Chaine says, abusers often position themselves (via jobs, volunteerism, family) near their victims…

    • Chaine says:

      He wouldn’t be the first person to get with someone because the relationship enables his access to young children..

  4. JayBlue says:

    I imagine Jr sees his own crimes as legal in the Philippines, but his fathers illegal everywhere.

  5. Eurydice says:

    Even as we speak, they’re preparing a bed in the memory unit, right next to Tom, Sr.

  6. Amy Bee says:

    Not surprising at all. The British press’ hatred for Meghan led them to be allies of paedos. There really needs to be an investigation into the press’ dealings with the Markles.

    • BeanieBean says:

      With any luck, something of how the DF funded the Markles will come out at trial, or in depositions.

    • Hypocrisy says:

      Absolutely the tabloids were a big part of aiding these horrible people, I’m not surprised to hear Tom jr is also being investigated.

  7. Eowyn says:

    I totally expected this to happen. Expose them all. Consequences for the degenerates, and all my heart is with the victims.

  8. Brassy Rebel says:

    How stupid do you have to be to report someone for alleged child sexual abuse when you’re doing the same? Been wondering this since the story first broke.

    • PunkyMomma says:

      Same thought here. What does Jr gain by this, other than a prison sentence?

      • QuiteContrary says:

        Maybe he’s banking on his cooperation getting him a lighter sentence. He didn’t come forward for the sake of the victims.

    • BeanieBean says:

      Wouldn’t be the first criminal to report someone else’s criminality & end up utterly surprised when they themselves get investigated.

  9. SpringFlower says:

    I’m surprised people are already jumping to conclusions about Junior. He’s been described as a person of interest, not a suspect, and so far there’s no evidence publicly establishing that he’s involved. Can we at least wait for the facts before drawing conclusions?

    • BeanieBean says:

      Really? You’re surprised? With this guy?

      • SpringFlower says:

        You’re right, I guess I’m not surprised either. But I don’t think it’s okay to accuse someone before there’s evidence. I haven’t seen anything about photos or other material involving Junior himself, for example.

  10. NoBS Please says:

    Thomas Markle Jr is as disgusting a creep as his father. Worse in fact, who can forget his YouTube channel videos where he mocks Meghan and Doria in blackface?

    He is a racist, abject pig as well as being a money-grabber and a paedo.

    Really, both Thomas Markles are genuine scum of the Earth trailer trash!!!!! As is Scamantha.

    And to think that these are the people the British and far-right media have been elevating and coddling and praising to the skies, in their campaign against Meghan.

    Shame on all of them!

    • Lady Digby says:

      OMG blackface!? I knew he’d called her a c and called her to be gotten rid of for not reconciling with dad undearest after yet another one of T Markle:s fake medical episodes so no I view him with disdain. Yes he reported Senior ‘s stash and apologised to Meghan at the same time but it doesn’t wipe out years of hideous behaviour. Honestly the Markle trio are so ugly both inside and outside. Last Friday Jan Moir of all people finally acknowledged how awful they were and that she respected Meghan Sussex for making a success of her life. She has a loving and dignified mother.

    • Booboochile says:

      He did that???? Eeeew look at his face the face of a paedophilic pig.

      • Hypocrisy says:

        The videos he posted were absolutely horrifying and extremely disturbing I’ve never seen anything like them especially from a family member, god bless Doria for keeping Meghan away from him during her childhood the man has very serious mental health issues and seems extremely dangerous.
