Meghan sues Mail on Sunday over private letter
The Duke of Sussex says he fears his wife is “falling victim” to press intrusion as his mother did. …
The Duchess of Sussex has begun legal action against the Mail on Sunday over a claim that it unlawfully published one of her private letters.
In a statement, the Duke of Sussex said the couple were forced to take action against “relentless propaganda”.
He said: “I lost my mother and now I watch my wife falling victim to the same powerful forces.”
Law firm Schillings, acting for the duchess, accused the paper of a campaign of false, derogatory stories.
The firm has filed a High Court claim against the paper and its parent company, Associated Newspapers, over the alleged misuse of private information, infringement of copyright and breach of the Data Protection Act 2018.
