In 2018 a letter was sent to the Metropolitan Police and Royalty and Specialist Protection. That letter was later shared with me. It made disturbing and disturbing allegations against my father and I was assured that these were being investigated. I hope it can now be understood that, despite the distortions of some media publications over the years, any distance from my father and my decision not to allow him contact with our children was for one reason: to protect them.
I was sure officials were doing the same for other families. Although what has now been revealed is more horrific than one can imagine, my sincere hope is that justice will be fully served and the priority remains the safety and security of innocent children.
