Megan Markle, Duchess of Sussex, filed a lawsuit against a popular newspaper for allegedly violating her privacy, but the London Supreme Court dismissed part of a lawsuit and ruled that the newspaper had not acted in violation of the trust.

Markle, the wife of Prince Harry, grandson of Queen Elizabeth, is suing partner newspapers after publishing articles in her Mail on Sunday newspaper that include excerpts from a letter she sent to her father, Thomas Markle.

The case revolves around articles published by The Mail on Sunday newspaper in February 2019 about a dispute between Megan and her father.

At last week’s case hearing, the newspaper’s attorney said the “Mail on Sunday” charge of acting dishonestly and causing a family dispute should be dropped and a scheme directed at the Duchess of Sussex to publish “insulting and false” stories.

“I support dropping all three charges,” Judge Mark Warby said in his ruling.

Harry and Meghan announced last week that they “will have no deal whatsoever” with four of Britain’s largest newspapers, including the “Daily Mail”, and accused her of providing false and offensive coverage.

Markle’s attorneys say the publication of the letter he wrote in August 2018 is a misuse of personal information and a violation of his property rights and demanded compensation.
