Duchess Meghan (38) partially failed in her lawsuit against the publisher of the British tabloid “Mail on Sunday”. This comes from the decision on a preliminary hearing of the London High Court, which was published on Friday. The publisher had requested that part of the allegations not be admitted in the main proceedings. The judge now accepted this request.
The reason for the lawsuit was the partial publication of a handwritten letter that Meghan had sent to her father, Thomas Markle. She has been in a clinch with him since she married Prince Harry (35) two years ago. The 75-year-old man had passed the letter on to “Mail on Sunday.” Meghan sees her personal rights violated by the post.
Richter rejected the accusations
He also accused journalists of dishonesty and malicious intent. The lawyer argued that the discussion with his father had only been provoked by the press. The report is part of a broader “agenda” against Meghan. The judge did not allow these charges. According to the reasoning, they were not relevant to the substance of the procedure, were too general, or were not presented properly.
When the main procedure should initially start was unclear. The main question now is whether the content of the published letter was in the public interest or not. It is a major setback for Meghan and Harry.
Benefits of questionable trading
The couple recently said goodbye to the royal family and reportedly now live in the American metropolis of Los Angeles. The two hope to better protect themselves from reporting on their private lives in the future. But whether they will achieve this goal through the process is questionable. Much private information, such as text messages, has already been made public through court documents. Meghan’s father has announced that he will testify for the newspaper if necessary. (SDA)
