The damning claims are part of the Duchess of Sussex’s lawsuit against the publisher of Mail on Sunday, Daily Mail and MailOnline, the media that she said were the worst criminals.
“The Claimant had become the subject of a large number of false and damaging articles in the UK tabloid media, specifically the Respondent, which caused great emotional distress and damage to her mental health,” the newspapers say. , according to the BBC.
Her suffering explains why her friends stepped forward to defend her in other articles, newspapers say.
“Since her friends had never seen her in this state before, they were justly concerned about her well-being, specifically because she was pregnant, unprotected by the institution, and prohibited from defending herself.”
