Meghan had previously stated that she had no idea her friends were defending her to the media outlet, but insisted that their names be withheld from the court drama nonetheless.
HuffPo points out that while the names are listed in confidential court docs, they will just be known to the public only as A, B, C, D or E.
A spokesperson for Meghan said in a statement, “The Duchess felt it was necessary to take this step to try and protect her friends — as any of us would — and we’re glad this was clear. We are happy that the Judge has agreed to protect these five individuals.” Congrats!
