Judge Throws Out Samantha Markle's Defamation Lawsuit
Samantha claimed that the comments Meghan made about her—saying that the pair didn't have a close relationship and that she was an only child—have caused her to face "daily harassment." However, Federal Court in Florida disagreed, and threw the case out. "[Samantha's] claims will be dismissed with prejudice, as she has failed to identify any statements that could support a claim for defamation or defamation-by-implication," Judge Charlene Edwards Honeywell.
Samantha has recently decided to go to the Court of Appeal for the 11th Circuit, hoping to bring the case back into the courtroom, with her legal team throwing out some pretty harsh claims.
Samantha Markle Calls Prince Harry The 'Prince Of Wails'
In Samantha's team's latest filing, Peter Ticktin of the Ticktin Law Group told Newsweek, "To most of us, Americans, we couldn't give a tinker's damn as to whether that prince is the Duke of Wales, the Duke of Sussex, or the Duke of Earl. In fact, I wish I could say it was simply a spelling mistake when she should have been the Duke of Wails."
He continued, "So this foreigner, if we ever gave out titles in America, should be known as the Minister of Fiction," attempting a play on words as Prince Harry was a commissioner with The Aspen's Institute, also known as the Ministry of Truth. Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have yet to respond to Samantha's newest claims.
