The wedding between a commoner and a good-looking prince marks the tip of a number of the world’s best-known well-known fairy tales.

However within the years since she married Prince Harry, the fortunately ever after life has eluded Meghan Markle.

That’s largely due to the harassment the Duchess of Sussex has endured by the hands of her fame-hungry household.

In March of final yr, Meghan’s half-sister, Samantha Markle, filed a defamation lawsuit, during which she alleged that Meghan lied about her throughout a 2021 interview with Oprah Winfrey.

On Thursday, a Florida choose dismissed the $75,000 swimsuit, and identified the plain in her ruling:

Meghan’s feedback, the choose wrote, had been opinions and due to this fact “not able to being proved false.”

In her preliminary submitting, Samantha alleged that Meghan “orchestrated the marketing campaign to defame and destroy her sister’s and her father’s repute and credibility to be able to protect and promote the false ‘rags-to-royalty’ narrative [Meghan] had fabricated about her life to the Royal Household and the worldwide media.”

US District Choose Charlene Edwards Honeywell disagreed, explaining in her determination that Meghan has the suitable to precise opinions about her personal childhood.

“As an affordable listener would perceive it, Defendant merely expresses an opinion about her childhood and her relationship along with her half-siblings,” Honeywell wrote.

“Thus, the Court docket finds that Defendant’s assertion isn’t objectively verifiable or topic to empirical proof. Plaintiff can not plausibly disprove Defendant’s opinion of her personal childhood.”

Samantha’s lawyer, Peter Ticktin alleged in courtroom that Meghan received caught in a lie about her childhood and determined to disparage Samantha to be able to discredit her.

“Why else is she placing her sister down? Why else is she placing her father down? Why else is she denying her household who has accomplished nothing however good to her all her life?” Ticktin stated.

“She by no means had an issue with them in any respect.”

Because the New York Put up factors out, Samantha is seemingly undeterred by the diminishing public curiosity in her assaults towards her sister.

The truth is, she appears to be doubling down within the hope that she will be able to prolong her quarter-hour of fame by ramping up her bitterness.

“I don’t suppose he can suppose like an grownup as a result of I don’t suppose emotionally he’s one,” Sam stated of Prince Harry throughout a current look on Fox Information.

It stays to be seen if Samantha will proceed to be acknowledged by mainstream media retailers now that she’s been humiliated in courtroom.

She had seemingly hoped to tug the case out to be able to enhance her notoriety, and a dismissal earlier than Meghan might even be deposed is the worst potential end result for Samantha.

In fact, even when she by no means seems on Tucker Carlson once more, you might be sure that Sam’s one-woman hate marketing campaign towards her sister will proceed within the type of unhinged Twitter tirades and self-published tell-alls.

However for in the present day at the very least, Meghan can take consolation within the data that justice has been served.
