A Florida judge ruled the Duchesses statements were pure opinion and “not capable of being proved false”.
Meghan Markle has successfully had her half-sister's lawsuit dismissed after a judge ruled in her favour.
Judge Charlene Honeywell did offer Samantha the opportunity to refile her claim, adding Samantha could “replead” for damages on injurious falsehood over a CBS TV interview Meghan gave. Samantha sued her half sister after alleging Meghan defamed and embarrassed her by telling Oprah Winfrey she was raised as an “only child”.
The judge ruled Meghan could not be held responsible for the book Finding Freedom as she did not publish it. Meghan previously filed a motion to stop depositions in the case from taking place, but this was dismissed by Florida judge Charlene Edwards Honeywell. In their joint interview with US talk show host Oprah Winfrey in March 2021, Harry and Meghan spoke about both their families and made a series of allegations about the Royal Family.
