Thomas Markle Sr has been accused of hoarding child sex abuse images at his home in the Phillipines (allegations he has called 'sick lies').
While Meghan Markle called the investigation into her father 'disturbing', Richard Eden, the Daily Mail's Diary Editor, asks whether the Duchess is 'weaponising' the news while Richard Kay, the newspaper's Senior Editor-at-Large, suggests this may be an opportunity for the Sussexes to reconcile with the Royal Family.
Meanwhile, King Charles has touched down in the Caribbean for a nine-day tour of the Bahamas, Guyana and finally Antigua and Barbuda. Reporting from the scene is Rebecca English who explains why this trip could prove to be explosive.
AND Daily Mail columnist Sarah Vine praises Prince William's appearance on The Graham Norton Show - but has the Prince of Wales been forced to 'up his game' because of Prince Harry?
