Meghan Markle’s estranged dad, Thomas Markle Sr., could face at least a decade in prison following his arrest for allegedly having child pornography.
The 82-year-old allegedly had a stash of the disturbing materials at his home in the Philippines and in a storage unit in Mexico and was reportedly arrested for possession of child sexual abuse material.
While the specific federal charges are not yet clear, he could face a decade behind bars simply for having the sick images. He could also face a stiffer sentence if the photos are of a child under the age of 12.

Further details about the exact allegations and charges haven’t yet been released.
But sources told The Post that the case, which is being handled by the US Attorney’s Office Central District of California, is tied to a laptop with child porn allegedly found at Markle’s Phillippines home and child porn allegedly discovered in his Mexico storage locker.
Markle Sr. has vigorously denied the allegations as “sick lies.”
His famous daughter told The Post she is “deeply distressed” by the accusations.
