Meghan Markle wins a high-profile claim for breach of privacy after a British newspaper published extracts of a 2018 letter she wrote to her estranged father.

A judge at the High Court in London says the Duchess of Sussex, who is married to Queen Elizabeth II’s grandson Prince Harry, “had a reasonable expectation that the contents of the letter would remain private.”

The articles in the Mail on Sunday weekly paper “interfered with that reasonable expectation” and were unlawful, judge Mark Warby says in a ruling.
