'Pathetic' Meghan and Thomas Markle torn apart with brutal dig on SNL UK
Saturday Night Live UK took a brutal dig at Meghan Markle's dad, Thomas Markle, after he faces an investigation over being in possession of child abuse images in his home. His son Thomas Jr allegedly found the material in boxes in his father's Philippines house and turned it over to local authorities, according to the Sun. In a brutal swipe over the claims, SNL UK aired their Weekend Update sketch, as Paddy Young said: "In royal news, it’s been a big 24 hours for Meghan Markle, whose dad has been accused of being an alleged paedophile, in another pathetic attempt to win over the British public. In 2025, Thomas Markle moved to the Philippines as a sure sign of his innocence."
