Just in. Harry and Meghan lose opening court battle over Thomas Markle letter.
THE publisher of the Mail on Sunday has won the first High Court skirmish in the Duchess of Sussex’s privacy claim against it over publication of a letter to her estranged father.
However, the judge said those parts of the duchess’s case may be revived at a later stage if they are put on a proper legal basis. David Sherborne, representing the duchess, accused the publisher of “stirring up” a dispute between Meghan and her father, and argued it “caused the very dispute” that it says, “justifies the publication of this letter”.
He told the court Meghan’s contention that her “vulnerable” father was “harassed and humiliated”, “manipulated” and “exploited” should not form part of her case. Associated Newspapers wholly denies the allegations, particularly the claim that the letter was edited in any way that changed its meaning, and says it will hotly contest the case.
