According to the decision of a judge of the Supreme Court, the publication has infringed on her privacy and copyright.
The British tabloid Mail on Sunday has launched an appeal against the decision of a Supreme Court judge in favor of Megan Markle, according to which the publication has infringed on her privacy and copyright, publishing excerpts from her letter to her estranged father after the wedding. her with Prince Harry in 2018, world agencies report.
Megan, 40, has filed a lawsuit against the Associated Newspapers for mail-published excerpts from a letter to her father, Thomas Markle, in August 2018, three months after her wedding to Harry. The Duchess of Sussex claimed that this was a violation of her privacy and copyright.
Earlier in the year, Judge Mark Warby ruled in her favor without trial and ordered the paper to print an apology on the front page and pay her court costs.
Today, Mail on Sunday launched an appeal against his decision, saying the judge should not have treated the letter as “intimate communication” between Megan and her father and that he had reached the wrong conclusions on other issues.
“The letter was drafted in view of the possibility of it becoming public, as the plaintiff understands that Mr Markle may disclose it to the media,” said Andrew Caldecott, a lawyer for Mail on Sunday.
According to him, the judge’s approach to examining the defendant’s position was too limited.
Megan Markle’s lawyers, for their part, said the lawsuit should be dismissed, as another lawsuit would provoke a further invasion of the privacy of Britain’s Prince Harry’s wife, and Mail on Sunday would only benefit from their case. “media circus”.
