LONDON (AP) – The estranged father of Meghan, Duchess of Sussex could be called as a defence witness in her lawsuit against the Mail on Sunday newspaper, court papers reveal.
Meghan is suing the newspaper and its parent company Associated Newspapers for publishing a letter she wrote to her father Thomas Markle. The civil lawsuit accuses the newspaper of copyright infringement, misuse of private information and violating British data protection law with the publication of the letter.
Documents filed at the High Court show the newspaper plans to rely on evidence from Markle, stating that he “had a weighty right to tell his version of what had happened between himself and his daughter, including the contents of the letter.”
Papers drawn up by lawyers for the newspaper argue that members of Britain’s royal family “generate and rely on publicity about themselves and their lives in order to maintain the privileged positions they hold and to promote themselves.”
The paper also argues the letter’s publication was in response to a “one-sided” article in People Magazine in February 2019 featuring an interview with five unnamed “close friends” of the duchess which referenced the letter, meaning its existence was in the public domain. read more
Such a wonderful family.
A retainer for a divorce lawyer would have been a great wedding present at this point.
Speaking of Law Suits. —
“Sharyl Attkisson has refiled a lawsuit against the federal government for illegally and unconstitutionally hacking her computers and trespassing at her home. It’s a whopper of a lawsuit, naming high-profile Deep State officials including Rod Rosenstein……
In her lawsuit refiled on January 10, Attkisson relied on a whistleblower who was actually involved in hacking her computers. He identified some of the other government officials complicit in the very disturbing spying on her….
The spying was conducted using government proprietary spyware and a mysterious United States Postal Service Internet domain. The latter fact is highly relevant, as government experts explained. A multi-agency government spying unit in Baltimore under Rosenstein’s supervision used these techniques, and they were even employed without court-ordered warrants.
The new suit alleges that Rosenstein ordered the spying on Attkisson after directives — later exposed by Wikileaks —
showed Obama officials John Brennan and Eric Holder were neck-deep in targeting journalists who were reporting on leaks about Obama administration scandals and lies…..
The government sources with consciences told Sharyl’s lawyers that she is just one of hundreds of journalists or other American citizens who have been victims of such illegal spying. Her lawsuit rightly claims her case is about a “clear and present danger to our most fundamental protections.”….
With no sign of the Justice Department and the rest of the Deep State relenting, and with a shocking absence of help from “free press” and civil liberties organizations, Sharyl is still financing this costly litigation on her own. This week I chipped in another $500 through the …”

I don’t give a Schiff about the Royals, and this one is more important to America.
@Blink — The list of oblowme’s victims probably intersects those spied on by Ukraine ambassador, Yavanovicvh:
Jack Posobiec, Donald Trump Jr., Laura Ingraham, Sean Hannity, Michael McFaul (Obama’s ambassador to Russia), Dan Bongino, Ryan Saavedra, Rudy Giuliani, Sebastian Gorka, John Solomon, Lou Dobbs, Pamella Geller and Sara Carter.

The CTH article also states Yavanobitch wanted monitoring of these linked names – Biden, Giuliani, Soros and Yovanovitch.
I would assume Biden would include both Joe and Hunter. Yet the mad-hatters have no interest. While Ms. Y seemed concerned about how those 4 effected herself.
But, but Yovanovitch was “Benghazi-ed “.
Someone should go ahead and ask Dems at the next debate whether they know that it’s an impeachable offense to fire any of Trump’s current ambassadors.
Posts in “The Reluctant Royals” are actually posts about the Obama’s since they are pulling the strings behind these two newlywed narcissists. Markle leaves her billionaire benefactor’s love nest to go to a battered womens shelter. Britain is importing savages, facilitating child rape grooming networks and giving Islamopedophiles the royal treatment but this know nothing tramp who publicly disowned her father for not coming to her wedding because he had a heart attack is some moral lodestar now.
This is the UK’s Larry the Liberal. Seems he is fed up with the royal family.

I can’t wait for the truth to come out about yacht girl Markle. The first marriage which was annulled. (Hairy is actually husband #3) Her real age of 43. Her salad tossing porn tape. Her sex worker past. And mostly that she faked her pregnancy and used a surrogate which means Archie should not be in the line of succession since he was not ‘born of the body’.
