据《每日邮报》报道,萨塞克斯公爵夫人梅根告诉与她疏远的父亲托马斯·马克尔,在得知针对他的令人不安的指控后,他将永远见不到他的孙辈。随着菲律宾当局调查涉及儿童性虐待图像的指控,这一争议也引发了人们对英国警方在2018年如何处理所获信息的质疑。
Meghan reportedly told Thomas Markle he would never meet Archie or Lilibet. The Philippine investigation has renewed scrutiny of British police handling in 2018. The Duchess of Sussex told her estranged father, Thomas Markle, that he would never meet his grandchildren after she learnt of disturbing allegations against him, the Daily Mail reported.
据《太阳报周日版》报道,现年45岁的梅根去年给父亲寄了一封信,当时他正在菲律宾一家医院康复,刚做完左腿截肢手术。信中告诉这位82岁的老人,他将永远收不到她的消息,也见不到7岁的阿奇王子和5岁的莉莉贝特公主。
As Filipino authorities investigate claims involving child sexual abuse images, the controversy has also raised questions about how British police handled information they received in 2018. Meghan, 45, sent a letter to her father last year while he was recovering in hospital in the Philippines after having his left leg amputated. According to The Sun on Sunday, the letter told the 82-year-old that he would never hear from her again or meet Prince Archie, seven, and Princess Lilibet, five.
《周日邮报》报道称,该报记者在场见证了这封装在白色信封里的信被交给托马斯·马克尔。该报表示,出于对公爵夫人隐私的尊重,没有询问信的内容。
The Mail on Sunday reported that it was present when the letter, delivered in a white envelope, was handed to Thomas Markle. The newspaper said it did not ask about its contents out of respect for the Duchess's privacy.
针对托马斯·马克尔的指控目前正由菲律宾当局调查,警方正在检查据称在他的电子设备上发现的数字材料。他否认与未成年少女发生过性关系,并誓言洗清冤屈。
The allegations against Thomas Markle are now being investigated by authorities in the Philippines, where officers are examining digital material allegedly found on electronic devices belonging to him. He has denied having sex with underage girls and vowed to clear his name.
梅根:决定是为了保护孩子 梅根周六发表声明称,她对最新事态发展“深感痛苦”,并解释了为何阻止父亲见孩子。
MEGHAN SAYS DECISION WAS TO PROTECT HER CHILDREN Meghan issued a statement on Saturday saying she was "deeply distressed" by the latest developments and explaining why she had prevented her father from meeting her children.
她说,一封含有针对托马斯·马克尔指控的信件曾于2018年送交伦敦警察厅和皇室与专业保护部。这封信随后转交给了她,并获保证相关指控正在接受调查。
She said a letter containing allegations against Thomas Markle had been sent to the Metropolitan Police and Royalty and Specialist Protection in 2018. The letter was subsequently shared with her, and she was assured that the claims were being investigated.
梅根在信中写道:“我希望现在能被理解,尽管某些媒体多年来的歪曲报道,我与父亲保持距离、以及我选择不让他与我们的孩子接触,只有一个原因:为了保护他们。”
"I hope it can now be understood that, despite certain media publications' distortion over the years, any distance from my father and my choice to not allow him to have contact with our children, was for one reason: to protect them," Meghan was quoted as writing in the letter.
她补充道:“我相信当局也在为其他家庭做同样的事。”这位公爵夫人表示,所曝光的情况“比任何人能想象的都更令人作呕”,并表达了希望伸张正义的愿望,强调儿童的安全与保护仍是重中之重。
She added, "I trusted that the authorities were doing the same for other families." The Duchess said the extent of what had emerged was "more sickening than one could ever imagine" and expressed hope that justice would be served, with the safety and protection of children remaining the priority.
梅根与父亲自2018年起断绝往来。据报道,托马斯·马克尔因心脏病发作,且表示不想让女儿难堪,未出席梅根那一年与哈里王子的婚礼。当时还是威尔士亲王的查尔斯国王,在温莎城堡陪梅根走过红毯。
Meghan and her father have been estranged since 2018. Thomas Markle did not attend her wedding to Prince Harry that year after reportedly suffering a heart attack and saying he did not want to embarrass his daughter. King Charles, who was then Prince of Wales, walked Meghan down the aisle at Windsor Castle.
菲律宾当局审查数字证据 菲律宾当局正在分析据称与托马斯·马克尔有关的数字图像。菲律宾内政部长乔恩维克·雷穆拉表示,法医鉴定预计将在一周内完成。
PHILIPPINE AUTHORITIES EXAMINE DIGITAL EVIDENCE Authorities in the Philippines are analysing digital images allegedly linked to Thomas Markle. Philippine Interior Minister Jonvic Remulla said the forensic examination was expected to be completed within a week.
雷穆拉说:“目前所有迹象都指向一名极其恶劣的性犯罪者”,同时强调官方在公布调查结果前,想要先确立事实。他说:“我们要在发布调查结果前确保万无一失。”
"Right now all signs point to a possible sex offender of the grossest kind," Remulla said, while stressing that officials wanted to establish the facts before releasing their findings. "We want to be sure before we release the findings," he said.
他补充道:“请给我们一周时间,以确定内容并得出一个确定的结论。”
"Please give us a week to determine the contents and to come up with a definitive picture," he added.
警方周五查获四箱证据,并花费九小时与托马斯·马克尔的儿子小汤姆·马克尔在一起,记录相关材料。
Police in the Philippines seized four boxes of evidence on Friday and spent nine hours with Thomas Markle's son, Tom Markle Jr., documenting the material.

Meghan的继兄汤姆·马克尔 Jr,现年60岁,声称在菲律宾他们父亲的电子设备中发现了一组儿童性虐待图像。
SON CLAIMS HE FOUND CHILD SEXUAL ABUSE IMAGES Meghan's half-brother, Tom Markle Jr, 60, has claimed that he discovered a collection of child sexual abuse images on electronic devices belonging to their father in the Philippines.
据汤姆 Jr 称,在为未婚妻罗斯寻找手机时,他打开了一个设备,看到了他描述为“卑鄙”的儿童图像。随后他打开了一台电脑,据称发现了一个屏保,其中包含“数百”张儿童性图片。
According to Tom Jr., he was looking through storage boxes for a phone for his fiance, Rose, when he opened a device and saw what he described as "vile" images of children. He then switched on a computer and allegedly found a screensaver containing "hundreds" of sexual pictures of children.
该收藏据报包括一段视频,显示十岁以下或十一岁以下的女孩参与性行为。
The collection is alleged to include videos showing girls aged no more than 10 or 11 involved in sexual acts.
一张35毫米照片据报道显示一位胡须男子与一名亚洲年轻女子发生性关系。然而,托马斯·马克尔否认照片中的人是他。“我从未出现在那样的照片里,”他在周六表示。
A 35mm photograph reportedly shows a bearded man resembling Thomas Markle having sex with a young Asian girl. However, Thomas Markle denied being the man in the photograph. "I have never been in a photograph like that," he said on Saturday.
汤姆 Jr 已公开向 Meghan 道歉,表示他后悔过去九年“保护了错误的人”。
Tom Jr has since apologised publicly to Meghan, saying he regretted "protecting the wrong person for the past nine years".
“既然看到了我所看到的一切,我相信我一直所辩护和照顾的那个人是个怪物,”他说。
"Having seen what I've seen, I believe the man I've been defending and caring for is a monster," he said.
“我现在确切地知道为什么你不和他 anymore说话,为什么你不让他见哈利或者他的 grandchildren。”
"I now know exactly why you don't talk to him any more and why you won't let him meet Harry or his grandchildren."
托马斯·马克尔否认与未成年女孩发生性关系托马斯·马克尔否认了针对他的指控,并表示会做一切必要之事洗清自己的名字。“我从未与18岁以下任何人发生过性关系,”他说。
THOMAS MARKLE DENIES HAVING SEX WITH UNDERAGE GIRLS Thomas Markle has denied the allegations against him and said he would do whatever was necessary to clear his name. "I have never had sex with anyone under the age of 18," he said.
他承认向《每日邮报周日刊》透露,自己在远东生活期间曾花钱买性,但否认与未成年女孩发生过性关系。
He admitted to The Mail on Sunday that he had paid for sex while living in the Far East, but denied sleeping with underage girls.
这位82岁的老人表示,单身时他曾至少两次前往菲律宾,并与“妓女”发生了性关系。“我喜欢亚洲女性,但这并不是犯罪,”他说。
The 82-year-old said he had travelled to the Philippines at least twice while single and "slept with prostitutes". "I like Asian women but that is not a crime," he said.
他还承认自己喜欢看漂亮年轻女性的照片,但坚称自己总是与年龄合适的女性交往。
He also acknowledged that he liked looking at photographs of attractive young women but insisted that he had always dated women of an appropriate age.
“我喜欢年轻漂亮的女性吗?是的。我喜欢看漂亮女人的照片吗?是的,”他说。
"Do I love beautiful young women? Yes. Do I like looking at pictures of beautiful women?
“但我一直只和年龄相仿的女性约会,我知道如果你去问我的前妻(指多莉亚,罗斯林已于2024年去世)或我的任何一位前女友,她们都会告诉你,我们的性生活很正常。”他在菲律宾最近一任女友是他的护士、46岁的里奥·卡内罗。没有迹象表明她从事过卖淫活动。
Yes," he said. "But I have always dated age-appropriate women and I know if you talk to my ex-wife [meaning Doria, Roslyn died in 2024] or any of my ex-girlfriends they would tell you we had a normal sex life." His most recent girlfriend in the Philippines was his nurse, Rio Canero, 46. There is no suggestion that she engaged in prostitution.
父亲称自己一直无法接触到那些设备 托马斯·马克尔对儿子关于电子设备如何被发现的说法提出异议,并称自己已将近两年没有接触过自己的电脑或手机。
FATHER SAYS HE HAS NOT HAD ACCESS TO DEVICES Thomas Markle has disputed his son's account of how the electronic devices were found and said he had not had access to his computer or phones for nearly two years.
他说,他的电脑和旧手机在墨西哥被打包,经海运运到菲律宾,这一过程耗时数月。
He said his computer and old phone had been packed in Mexico and transported by boat to the Philippines, a process that took months.
“我一直向儿子要我的电脑,他说快到了。他始终不肯给我,我不明白为什么,”他说。
"I kept asking my son for my computer and he said it was coming. He would never give it to me and I didn't understand why," he said.
托马斯·马克尔说,小汤姆曾告诉他,那些箱子存放在宿务市的一家酒店里,2025年1月他们初到菲律宾时就住在那家酒店。
Thomas Markle said Tom Jr had told him that the boxes were being stored at a hotel in Cebu City, where the pair stayed when they first arrived in the Philippines in January 2025.
两人后来住在附近的一栋高层公寓里,之后又搬到城外的两处房子。托马斯·马克尔说,他在那些房子里只住了几天,就患上了严重的血栓。
The two later lived in a neighbouring high-rise before moving to two houses outside the city. Thomas Markle said he stayed at the houses for only a few days before suffering a serious blood clot.
他随后从医院转到一家长期护理机构,之后于今年5月返回美国接受治疗。
He subsequently moved from hospital to a long-term care facility before returning to the US in May this year for medical treatment.
“我已经将近两年没有我的电脑或手机了,”他说。“如果那上面有什么不好的东西,那是别人放上去的。”托马斯·马克尔去年从墨西哥搬到宿务市。去年12月左腿截肢后,他目前住在佛罗里达州的一家护理机构,正在学习用假肢行走。
"I have not had my computer or phones for nearly two years," he said. "If there is anything bad on there it was put there by someone else." Thomas Markle moved to Cebu City from Mexico last year. Following the amputation of his left leg in December last year, he is now in a nursing facility in Florida, where he is learning to walk with a prosthetic limb.
伦敦警察厅因处理相关指控的方式面临质疑 此案还引发了人们对伦敦警察厅如何处理其在2018年收到的信息的质疑。
MET POLICE FACES QUESTIONS OVER HANDLING OF ALLEGATIONS The case has also prompted questions about the Metropolitan Police's handling of information it received in 2018.
梅根上周表示,她已得到保证,针对她父亲的指控正在调查中。然而,伦敦警察厅周六承认,它未能将涉嫌在英国境外犯罪的细节转交给其他执法机构。
Meghan said last week that she had been assured the allegations against her father were being investigated. However, the Met admitted on Saturday that it had failed to pass on details of the alleged offending outside the UK to other law enforcement agencies.
该警队表示,可能会就其对此案的处理方式主动提请警察监督机构审查。
The force said it may refer itself to the police watchdog over its handling of the case.
当被问及伦敦警察厅对此事的处理时,住房大臣安吉拉·雷纳将其描述为“一个操作层面的问题”。
Asked about the Met's handling of the matter, Housing Secretary Angela Rayner described it as "an operational issue".
雷纳在接受天空新闻采访时表示,梅根的家庭生活遭到了相当大的侵扰。
Speaking to Sky News, Rayner said Meghan had faced considerable intrusion into her family life.
“梅根·马克尔的家庭遭受了大量侵扰。作为女儿,这一切被公之于众一定很难受,”她说。
"Meghan Markle has faced a tremendous amount of intrusion into her family. It must be difficult as a daughter to have all this out in the open," she said.
雷纳本人也是一位母亲,她补充说,她理解梅根在指控公开以及与父亲疏远后面临的困难。
Rayner, who is a mother herself, added that she understood the difficulty Meghan faced as the allegations and the estrangement from her father became public.
“她与父亲的疏远已经见诸报端有一段时间了。但我认为她现在非常清楚地说明了原因,部分原因,为什么会出现这种情况,”她说。
"Her estrangement from her father has been something that's been in the Press for some time. But she's been really clear now, I think, on the reasons, some of the reasons, why that is the case," she said.
“但归根结底,这是一位母亲在努力抚养和保护自己的孩子,想要拥有美好的家庭生活,而当你在公众视野中时,这显然非常困难。”梅根同父异母的姐姐质疑照片说法 梅根同父异母的姐姐萨曼莎是托马斯·马克尔的主要照顾者,她对那张据称显示一名男子酷似他们父亲、身边有一名年轻亚洲女性的照片给出了不同的解释。她说,如果这样一张照片存在,那名女性可能是他的女友之一。
"But at the heart of this, you've got a mother who is trying to raise her children and protect them, and to have a great family life, and that is obviously very difficult when you're in the public eye." MEGHAN'S HALF-SISTER QUESTIONS PHOTOGRAPH CLAIM Meghan's half-sister, Samantha, who is Thomas Markle's main caregiver, offered a different explanation for the photograph allegedly showing a man resembling their father with a young-looking Asian woman. She said that if such a photograph existed, the woman might have been one of his girlfriends.
萨曼莎回忆说,他们的父亲曾与一位名叫卡罗琳的日本女性交往,她形容此人三十多岁但看起来年轻得多。
Samantha recalled that their father had dated a Japanese woman called Carolyn, whom she described as being in her thirties but looking much younger.
“亚洲女性皮肤好,身材娇小。她们看起来比实际年龄年轻得多,”她说。
"Asian women have great skin and are small and petite. They look much younger than they are," she said.
她还提到了另一位前女友盖尔,称她是亚裔,并表示她看起来非常年轻。
She also referred to another former girlfriend, Gail, describing her as Asian and saying she looked very young.
托马斯·马克尔结过两次婚:第一任妻子是罗斯琳·洛夫莱斯,她是小汤姆和萨曼莎的母亲;后来他又与梅根的母亲多莉亚·拉格兰结婚。罗斯琳于2024年去世。
Thomas Markle was married twice: first to Roslyn Loveless, the mother of Tom Jr and Samantha, and later to Doria Ragland, Meghan's mother. Roslyn died in 2024.
