Meghan Markle Put Her Letters On Public Domain, May Be Called As Witness

Meghan Markle and Prince Harry’s decision to file a lawsuit against two British publications may come back to bite them. It has now been revealed that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex’s claims may be unfounded.

According to The Sun, if the royal couple decides to fight their case in court, Markle herself may be called as a witness. When this happens, she would have to swear under oath.

The “Suits” alum accused Daily Mail of breaching her privacy and infringing her copyright after they released Markle’s private letters to her dad, Thomas Markle Sr. The letters were written using Prince Harry’s wife’s handwriting.

But multiple sources are not highlighting the fact that Markle’s letter was also published by People magazine alongside the interviews given by the royal’s friends about her.

The move could mean that Markle placed her so-called private letters in a public domain by informing her friends about it and giving them permission to go public. One of Markle’s friends talked about the letter during an interview with People.

But upon closer inspection, there seems to be no mention of Markle’s letter to her dad in the interviews that her closest friends gave to the publication. The identities of the royal’s pals have not also been disclosed.

One of them simply said that it is not true that Markle had a falling out with her half-siblings, Thomas Markle Jr. and Samantha Markle. The fact of the matter is, they were never a part of her life.

Markle’s friends also said that her dad’s claims that he couldn’t reach his daughter are also untrue. Thomas Sr. never called Markle, and he never sent her a text message either.

According to Daily Mail, they are standing by what they published. The publication also denied that they edited Markle’s letters to her dad to push their own agenda and to destroy the royal’s reputation.

And according to royal expert Patrick Jephson, no one really knows how the lawsuit would end and what damage it would cause.
