Dispute with “Mail on Sunday”: Meghan wins appeal proceedings

Dispute with “Mail on Sunday”: Meghan wins appeal proceedings

The personal letter to her father was supposed to fix the relationship. And promptly landed on the “Mail on Sunday”. In court, Meghan can now again assert himself against the newspaper.

Duchess Meghan (40) has won the appeal against the publisher of “Mail on Sunday” in the dispute over the partial publication of a letter to her father.

The Court of Appeal in London confirmed an earlier ruling by the High Court, according to which Meghan’s personal rights were violated by the publication. “The content was personal, private and not of legitimate public interest,” judge Geoffrey Vos justified the decision on Thursday.

Meghan was satisfied with the verdict. “This is not just a victory for me, but for anyone who has ever feared standing up for a just cause,” said a statement from the Duchess of Sussex.

Meghan has been in a clinch with her father Thomas Markle since her wedding to Prince Harry (37) in May 2018. The letter a few months later should repair the relationship, according to Meghan. The now 77-year-old pensioner saw things differently and passed the letter on to the journalists of the “Mail on Sunday”.

During the appeal process, the publisher argued that Meghan had already accepted publication of the letter when writing it by deliberately choosing the wording carefully. The court saw it differently.
