Meghan Markle, Prince Harry Win Privacy Case Against Paparazzi Who Took Photos Of Son Archie

Meghan Markle and Prince Harry have won their legal battle against the paparazzi agency that took photos of their son, Archie, without their permission in January.

On Saturday, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex settled their lawsuit with Splash U.K. regarding photos taken of Markle and Archie. The paparazzi agency has promised to never take photos of the family again.

"Splash U.K. will not take any photographs of the Duke and Duchess or their son in the future," the agency said in a statement read in court, according to Entertainment Tonight.

Meanwhile, a spokesperson from Schillings, the firm representing Prince Harry and Markle, also gave a statement stressing that the royal couple takes their privacy seriously.

"As explained in today's hearing, The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have successfully settled a legal claim brought at the beginning of this year against the paparazzi agency Splash U.K. This settlement is a clear signal that unlawful, invasive, and intrusive paparazzi behavior will not be tolerated, and that the couple takes these matters seriously - just as any family would," the spokesperson was quoted by ET as saying.

Markle filed the lawsuit in March after photos of them were taken during an outing at a Canadian park. ET noted that there is another lawsuit against Splash U.S. that is still ongoing in British courts.

In May, Prince Harry and Markle also contacted the LAPD over drone flybys at their home. The couple was staying at Tyler Perry's estate at the time.

They were concerned about their safety after observing drones flying in the property as low as 20 feet. The Sussexes suspected that the drones took photos of them and their son, Archie.

“They are not asking for any special treatment, and have not received any,” a source close to the Sussexes said about the incident.

In their complaint, the Sussexes said the drone-related incidents happened on May 9, 19, 20, 21 and 25. All incidents had been reported to the authorities.

"They see these drones coming in at them, and they guess that they are being operated by photographers, but they can’t just assume that. Meghan received racist death threats at the time of her wedding, so the terror threat is very real for them,” a source close to the royal couple said.
