Meghan Markle's defeat at the High Court today has been branded a 'disaster' and a 'humiliation' by leading lawyers after she lost the first round of her legal battle with the Mail on Sunday. Large parts of her case against Associated Newspapers were dismissed as 'irrelevant', 'inadequate' and 'impermissibly vague’ by a top judge this afternoon including her claims of a malicious media 'agenda' against her. Mr Justice Warby has also 'struck out' her allegations that journalists had acted dishonestly and had caused the rift between her and her estranged father Thomas by ‘digging up dirt’ to portray Meghan in a 'negative light'.

OP: Not to mention, British libel and slander laws are different than ours.

Harry must be SO happy that he married this sweet little …. viper.
I looked at the judge and thought how much fun it must have been to smoosh her poofta “celebrity lawyer”...

What would one expect for an outcome in a this lawsuit? Markle is a low-breed American actress, who reached her Peter Principle BEFORE she met Prince Dimbulb. What in the world was he thinking when he married her?

PS. My two bits say that, after all that has happened, the Queen is having a tiny schadenfreude moment…
The United Kingdom and the royal family will survive. Meghan? Not so much.

It does not except our attention, of course, that the hyperbolic language used by the legal "expert" is published by and for the defendant in the case who is accused of libel etc

#4- Perhaps not Prince “Dimbulb.” Instead, a very vulnerable young man who loves children and wanting his own family, seeing his brother and wife so happy with their children, his friends marrying and starting families, and having had hopeful relationships with young British women of “appropriate credentials” that came to naught for one reason or another, including trepidation about becoming a “royal” and the demands imposed by that lofty status, he may have fallen into a feeling of despair and became susceptible to any experienced woman with wiles and charms.
Along came Meghan and, after an introduction to Prince Harry, that Meghan allegedly asked her friend Misha Nonoo (British fashion designer) to arrange, Prince Harry became smitten with the “actress.” Sadly, Prince Harry is not the only man of stature falling into a relationship that turns out to be far less than “happily ever after.” At this point, Prince Harry deserves prayer instead of ridicule. Hopefully, he will come to his senses and do what needs to be done to salvage his life and that of his much loved son, Archie.

She has been fighting everyone from the moment she was married - the Royal family, the UK press. How much tension must there be in that household with someone so unhappy?

Chances are Meghan is going to be billed for huge lawyer’s fees on this one, both for her lawyers and also the lawyers for the UK newspapers that she is suing. Since the matter is still in court those fees will be compounding for a year or more. Maybe one of Meghan’s celebrity friends will advise her to try to settle and get out from under or to pull the case as the judge has signaled that she is not going to win in the UK courts.

They should move to NEPAL and lay low for a while. Assimilate with the natives until patience and meekness reflect their way of life. They'll find respect and honor much easier to earn when they return to America.

Meghan Markle is the total opposite of Grace Kelly.
Grace Kelly was the epitome of grace and class. When she married a prince, she dedicated herself to that role, and the people loved her because of it.
But Meghan just came in with her huge ego blazing. She was "the ugly American" in every sense of the phrase. And the people hated her for it.

You write a letter and tell at least 5 of your friends the contents. Somehow the assumption of confidentiality and privacy seems mote.
If your expecting privacy and confidentiality, you don't tell others and you don't put it in writing. ESPECIALLY, if your a celebrity or public official.
If I have to deliver news or opinions that I dont want others to know about, I do it in person, with no witnesses.

Dimbulb Harry is totally complicit w/Markles antics. I suspect he hates his family... is jealous of his brother, and no I don't believe he loves kids... how much time has he actually spent w/his kid... both of them leaving that kid for weeks and weeks at a time w/the nanny. That kid is just an accessory and a meal ticket.
