Soon Harry and Meghan will be called to testify in court. Naturally, they tried to avoid it, but the judge did not grant the request, and now The Sussexes will have to defend themselves against allegations of defamation.. The lawsuit was filed by Meghan’s sister Samantha Markle, who claims the Duchess made “deliberately false and harmful statements” about her in front of a “worldwide audience”. The Windsors’ family relationships are not going well, but nothing compared to the conflicts in the Markle family.
Markle’s half-sister, who shares a father with the Duchess, claims that Meghan, in her recent interviews (especially with Oprah) and when she talked about her past life, gave an erroneous and harmful opinion about her. Nothe lawsuit, filed last March, alleges “defamation and offensive lies.”, including Meghan’s claims that she was raised as an “only child” and is seeking $75,000 in damages. In particular, as reported BBCSamantha Markle claims that her sister gave the world an erroneous version of their relationship when they were growing up, giving the impression that they were “strangers” and that she “had nothing to do with her sister Meghan.” “She falsely and maliciously stated that she was an only child,” court documents say.
In addition, according to Samantha, Meghan described her childhood as difficult and deprived, which destroyed the “reputation and authority” of her half-sister and father. Samantha, on the other hand, claims that she had a close relationship with her half-sister., with “frequent and regular contact” in childhood. She also recalls how her father paid for Meghan’s “expensive” private education and helped launch her acting career. Now Meghan Markle, and with her Prince Harry, will have to answer for these accusations. Apparently, the Sussexes don’t stop making people talk about themselves, even when they don’t want to.
