It looks like someone just doesn’t want to lose here. There’s a new report that says the publisher for the Mail on Sunday is considering yet another appeal in the court decision in Meghan Markle’s privacy case as they believe there are “issues” with the Duchess of Sussex’s credibility. Here’s what you need to know.
According to new reports, the punisher of the Mail on Sunday said that they are considering an appeal to the Supreme Court in their privacy battle against Meghan Markle. This all began when the Mail on Sunday published a private letter that the Duchess of Sussex intended for her father Thomas Markle to read, and no one else.
Mail On Sunday Publisher Still Wants To Appeal Court Ruling In Meghan Markle Privacy Case
The Court of Appeal in London upheld a High Court ruling that the publisher of The Mail on Sunday and MailOnline website unlawfully breached the former Meghan Markle’s privacy by reproducing a large chunk of the handwritten letter she sent her father, Thomas Markle, after she married Prince Harry in 2018.
Associated Newspapers challenged the decision at the Court of Appeal, which held a hearing last month. Dismissing the appeal, senior judge Geoffrey Vos told the court Thursday that “the Duchess had a reasonable expectation of privacy in the contents of the letter. Those contents were personal, private and not matters of legitimate public interest.”
In a statement released by Meghan following the ruling, she says, “This is a victory not just for me, but for anyone who has ever felt scared to stand up for what’s right. While this win is precedent setting, what matters most is that we are now collectively brave enough to reshape a tabloid industry that conditions people to be cruel, and profits from the lies and pain that they create.”
Giving a summary of the Court of Appeal’s decision to dismiss Associated Newspapers’ appeal, Sir Geoffrey Vos said: “The Court of Appeal upheld the judge’s decision that the duchess had a reasonable expectation of privacy in the contents of the letter. Those contents were personal, private and not matters of legitimate public interest.”
“The articles in the Mail on Sunday interfered with the duchess’ reasonable expectation of privacy and were not a justified or proportionate means of correcting inaccuracies about the letter.”
