Meghan Markle has made an unusual decision by deciding to sue British tabloid The Mail on Sunday, referring to a handwritten letter Meghan once sent to her father.
The lawsuit came as a result of Prince Harry's extraordinary treatment of the tabloids over how they treated Meghan's wife's image, saying she could no longer be a "silent witness to her suffering."
Emphasizing respect for the importance of "objective and true reporting", he accused the media of conducting "campaigns against different individuals, without thinking the consequences."
Harry compared Meghan's treatment to that of his mother. "[Once] I lost my mother, and now I see my wife being a victim of these powerful forces," he said.
Referring to Lady Diana, Harry said "his greatest fear is that history will repeat itself." He then added: ?There comes a point when the only thing you can do is to stay doing nothing about this behavior, because it destroys people and destroys their lives. But we all know this is unacceptable, by no means. We cannot and should not believe that we live in a world where there is no responsibility for it. ?
Meghan and her lawyers have started proceedings in the Supreme Court and accuse the tabloid of abusing private information, human rights abuses and personal data breaches.
The Mail on Sunday has repeatedly tackled the image of Meghan Markle publishing / inventing various stories, centered on her father. In some cases, photographs of Thomas Markle allegedly taken by paparazzi have also been recorded.
