Meghan Reportedly ‘Dragged’ Into Another Criminal Case Amid Claims She’s Facing FBI Questioning Over What She ‘Knew’ About ‘Disturbing’ Activity

As she deals with the fallout of her dad’s child sexual abuse allegations, Meghan Markle has found herself dragged into another high-profile criminal case.

RadarOnline recently reported that convicted rapist Russell Brand once discussed the Duchess of Sussex on the British talk show Loose Women and claimed they “snogged.” Brand’s remarks have resurfaced following his sentencing to 10-plus years in prison for rape and sexual assault.

During a 2018 appearance on Loose Women, Brand alleged that he shared an on-screen kiss with Meghan in the 2010 comedy Get Him to the Greek. In the film, Meghan played a party girl named Tatiana, while Brand reprised his role as rock star Aldous Snow from Forgetting Sarah Marshall (2008).

“She was in a film that I was in, Get Him to the Greek, it was a good film,” Brand said on the talk show, per the Daily Express. “I don’t remember the film that much. I think I planted one on her in the scene. But that was scripted in the scene. I only know this because I think I saw a clip of it somewhere. … yeah, Russell Brand snogged her in the film!”

This is definitely not something Meghan wants to associate with, especially since her own father, Thomas Markle Sr., is under investigation for deeply disturbing reasons.

According to multiple outlets, Markle Sr. has been accused of possessing child sexual abuse images. He was arrested on Friday, November 6, and later released. However, on November 10, Markle Sr. was re-arrested after allegations surfaced that he cut off his ankle monitor.

Meghan released a statement about the allegations, which sparked backlash because she claimed she learned of them years prior. As a result, some, including royal insider Rob Shuter, are wondering whether Meghan and Prince Harry’s return to the UK was triggered by Markle Sr.’s “growing scandal.”

“People are starting to wonder whether this move was really about starting a new life in Britain or getting out of California before the whole thing blew up,” a source explained to Naughty But Nice, adding, “The timing is difficult to ignore.”

Meghan’s half-brother, Thomas Markle Jr., first reported Markle Sr. to authorities in July 2026—the same month Harry and Meghan met with King Charles and Queen Camilla. One month later, the Sussexes unexpectedly moved back to the UK, and in October, the allegations against Markle Sr. were made public.

“You don’t suddenly uproot your family, leave Hollywood behind and return to a country where your relationship with your family has been so complicated without a very compelling reason,” the insider added. “The explanations they’ve given don’t seem to answer all the questions.”

They went on to say, “The big question is whether Meghan knew another investigation was coming — and whether Harry knew, too. Neither of them has offered a convincing explanation for suddenly returning to a country they have spent years criticizing. Nobody is accusing them of anything, but the timing is raising questions that won’t simply go away.”
