Meghan Markle has successfully had her half-sister Samantha Markle’s court case dismissed. She had accused the royal of spreading “malicious lies” during the bombshell Oprah Winfrey interview in 2021. But a Florida judge has thrown out the lawsuit saying that Markle’s statements were pure opinion and “not capable of being proved false”.
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.”
