Meghan Markle Wins Her Lawsuit Against The Tabloids Over Her Private Letters

Finally, the good news has come for the Sussexes family that Meghan scores first victory over lawsuit against the tabloids.

The suit file around five to six articles against the royal family, winning a summary judgment in her contentious lawsuit against a tabloid for invading her privacy when it published parts of a letter she wrote to her estranged father.

After more than a year of hearings and briefs, High Court Justice Mark Warby ruled that a trial on the case, set for the fall, was unnecessary, granting the summary judgment Meghan sought and thus ending the case in Meghan’s favor.

“It was, in short, a personal and private letter,” Lord Justice Warby declared. “The majority of what was published was about the claimant’s own behaviour, her feelings of anguish about her father’s behaviour — as she saw it — and the resulting rift between them. These are inherently private and personal matters.”

In a statement, Duchess of Sussex shout on the tabloid Mail on Sunday for “illegal and dehumanizing practices.”

For these outlets, it’s a game,” her statement said. “For me and so many others, it’s real life, real relationships, and very real sadness. The damage they have done and continue to do runs deep.”

The claimant had a reasonable expectation that the contents of the letter would remain private. The Mail articles interfered with that reasonable expectation,” Warby said in his written ruling.

“Taken as a whole the disclosures were manifestly excessive and hence unlawful. There is no prospect that a different judgment would be reached after a trial.”

What’s Next

By now All the news media outlet have been wronged to not use personal data or misuse of private information, and copyright infringement. There’s also the possibility that the copyright of the letters is shared with the Duchess of Sussex’s former communications secretary, which would be determined at a trial.
