Duchess of Sussex: Meghan wins bid to throw out Samantha Markle legal case
By Francesca GillettBBC News
The Duchess of Sussex has won her bid to throw out a US defamation case brought by her half-sister.
Samantha Markle was suing Meghan for Alleged defamation and " injurious falsehood" - including Meghan saying she was an " Only Child " in her Interview with Oprah Winfrey .
She was seeking $75,000 (£62,000) in damages.
But a Florida judge dismissed the case, saying Meghan was expressing an Opinion - and opinions cannot be proved false.
In Court papers, US District Judge Charlene Edwards Honeywell wrote: " As a reasonable listener would understand it, defendant merely expresses an Opinion about her childhood and her relationship with her half-siblings.
" Thus, The Court finds that defendant's statement is not objectively verifiable or subject to empirical Proof . . plaintiff cannot plausibly disprove defendant's Opinion of her own childhood. "
Samantha Markle - who is Meghan's half-sister from father Thomas Markle 's first Marriage - brought the civil case in March Last Year .
In it, she Alleged Meghan:
In the Oprah Interview - which was watched by More Than 50 million people Worldwide - Meghan said she did not really know Samantha, adding: " I grew up as an Only Child , which everyone who grew up around me knows, and I wished I had siblings. "
As well as the Oprah TV Interview , Samantha Markle - who lives in Florida - Alleged The Duchess had defamed her by giving information to a 2020 unauthorised biography called Finding Freedom.
But Judge Honeywell also found The Duchess could not be liable for the contents of The Book because she did not publish it.
