The United Kingdom-based tabloid The Mail issued an apology to Duchess of Sussex Meghan Markle on its front page.
On Sunday, The Mail sent Markle a printed apology after it was reportedly ordered to by the London High Court. This all comes after the media outlet was found guilty of breaching Markle’s privacy back in February 2019 by publishing segments of a five-page letter to her father after she married Prince Harry in 2018, Deadline reports.
“The Duchess of Sussex wins her legal case for copyright infringement against Associated Newspapers for articles published in The Mail on Sunday and posted on Mail Online,” Mail’s apology reads.
It continued: “Following a hearing on 19-20 January, 2021, and a further hearing on 5 May, 2021, the Court has given judgment for the Duchess of Sussex on her claim for copyright infringement. The Court found that Associated Newspapers infringed her copyright by publishing extracts of her handwritten letter to her father in The Mail on Sunday and on Mail Online. Financial remedies have been agreed.”
The apology must stay on the outlet’s homepage “for a period of one week,” along with a link to the full judgment. In addition, Markle will receive compensation in the sum of $1.7 million. Markle calls the judgment a “victory” that’s bigger than her.
“This is a victory not just for me, but for anyone who has ever felt scared to stand up for what’s right,” said Markle. “While this win is precedent setting, what matters most is that we are now collectively brave enough to reshape a tabloid industry that conditions people to be cruel, and profits from the lies and pain that they create,” Markle continued.
