Meghan Markle Wins Defamation Suit Brought Against Her by Half-Sister


Meghan Markle’s half-sister Samantha Markle’s defamation lawsuit against her has been dismissed with prejudice by a Florida court

Meghan Markle and Prince Harry walked down the aisle in May 2018 at St George’s Chapel in Windsor Castle, but only one of her family members was in attendance — her mother, Doria Ragland. Samantha sought damages in excess of $75,000 “in the form of lost employment, lost income from sales of her autobiography, emotional and mental distress, including anxiety and fear due to the threatening and violence emails and messages she receives regularly, and harm to her reputation and credibility,” per court documents obtained by Us at the time. Meghan subsequently filed a motion to dismiss the suit, calling her half-sister’s claims “meritless” in court documents.
