Meghan Markle has been awarded another legal victory!
On Thursday (December 2), the Duchess of Sussex won a ruling in the Court of Appeal in London against the Associated Newspapers’ Mail on Sunday after they printed parts of a private letter she wrote to her father ahead of her wedding to Prince Harry.
The courts said that the newspaper unlawfully breached her privacy with the publication of her private correspondence.

“This is a victory not just for me, but for anyone who has ever felt scared to stand up for what’s right,” Meghan said in a statement.
“While this win is precedent setting, what matters most is that we are now collectively brave enough to reshape a tabloid industry that conditions people to be cruel, and profits from the lies and pain that they create,” she continued.
“From day one, I have treated this lawsuit as an important measure of right versus wrong. The defendant has treated it as a game with no rules,” Meghan said. “The longer they dragged it out, the more they could twist facts and manipulate the public (even during the appeal itself), making a straightforward case extraordinarily convoluted in order to generate more headlines and sell more newspapers—a model that rewards chaos above truth. In the nearly three years since this began, I have been patient in the face of deception, intimidation, and calculated attacks.”
“Because as far removed as it may seem from your personal life, it’s not. Tomorrow it could be you. These harmful practices don’t happen once in a blue moon—they are a daily fail that divide us, and we all deserve better,” she said.
After she released this statement, the “daily fail” line began trending.
