“There comes a point when the only thing to do is to stand up to this behavior because it destroys people and destroys lives. In his statement, Harry noted that he’s wary that Meghan’s treatment is mirroring that of his mother’s, the late Princess Diana:
The coverage of Meghan, particularly by the British tabloids, has been routinely mean-spirited and racially charged, so much so that, early in their relationship, Harry issued an appeal imploring them to end “the wave of abuse and harassment.” The Daily Mail and its ilk persisted, attacking everything from Meghan’s mother to her clothing, and have repeatedly run coverage sympathizing with her estranged relatives (namely, Thomas and Samantha Markle), who publicly slandered the Duchess throughout her engagement and wedding.Įarlier this year, Oprah Winfrey (a friend of Meghan’s) said she avoids reading any of the coverage, and Meghan herself has never addressed it in public.
The Daily Mail (along with U.S.-based TMZ) has spearheaded denigrating press coverage of the Duchess since she came into Prince Harry’s life several years ago. The Duke and Duchess of Sussex are taking legal action against Associated Newspapers, the publisher of the Daily Mail and Mail on Sunday, for “the misuse of private information, infringement of copyright, and breach of the Data Protection Act 2018.” The claim, which is being filed by the Duchess, was announced in a statement from Prince Harry, who wrote that he had “been a silent witness to private suffering for too long.”
