Fix a deterministic and define , and . The increment process is a standard Brownian motion in the shifted filtration, and remains bounded, continuous and adapted. Thus part (a) applies even though the initial value is random. For ,
Here the constant-in-time integrand is -measurable, so its stochastic integral equals . The expectation of the absolute value of the right-hand side to the power tends to zero by part (a). For every , Markov inequality consequently gives
Therefore
The stated convergence in probability holds for each fixed deterministic time.
