I don’t care how public a figure is....their private life should remain private!

Talking about Harry has changed. So If he defended his sister in law what makes them think he not going to defend his wife

[gwenjackson]

This is only a distraction to what’s really going on with Prince Andrew.

I don't understand how any amount of money could be prioritized over human life?! Not only is the paparazzi endangering these people, but they are taking away from the quality of their lives. As an everyday mother/wife I need 20-30minutes alone daily... to have someone constantly trying to capture my most vulnerable, private and embarrassing moments for public entertainment & monetary gain would drive me over the edge! My prayers go out to the royal family🙏🏽👑💪💯❤✌

How did the tabloids get the letter? If her father gave the letter to them, wouldn’t it be fair game for the tabloid to publish the letter?? Just asking!!!

[maggieedward]

In light of the princess William and Harry painful loss of their mother, and they way the press had hounded her, no it’s not an overreaction, it’s a very clever way of publishing things determined to undermine the duchess of Sussex, and cause her the most unimaginable pain from a close relative, they are playing on the estranged relationship with her father to sell their inches in their paper, i am aware the press have a job to do, but I am also quite certain it’s to cause the Royal family to also look at the negative press that has come with her in some part since joining the royal family, it’s a shrewd move, however not for those who can see the dirty games they have been playing, yes her father may have given that letter but in light of the successful tour they have done, why bring this up at this time to cast a cloud over what has been a great foreign engagement, have they no integrity ? No don’t answer that ✋🏾
The Duke has clapped back and so he should .

That is a shame that these people that is trying to do good, and these Devil's are trying to destroy them. God have Mercy on them.

Time to leave Diana out of this present situation.

[papapie]

Piers Morgan must be next. His almost daily online stalking and harassment of Meghan is both shocking and disturbing.

[nomzimasinyalela]

Thankyou God, time to say no to bullies

[marsiyahsteeltrap]

Some people need to stop being jealous of Meghan Markle. You know who you are. Smh

[genielfeckleton]

[diannehill]

GOOD JOB PRINCE HARRY AND DUCHESS MEGHAN..ENOUGH IS ENOUGH OF THE HATEFUL MEDIA TROLLS IN BRITIAN

[isaacmartinez]

We know the British press are rough towards the Royal Family, but the Press should have limits over their "reports". And it's not the first time because Princess Diana became a victim of the press.

[karamokodivaka]

Exactly, we must add devilish piers morgan to the list ! ! !

[champy]

Gail please do a story that pulls out all those ugly headlines that have dominated the British tabloids for months. The British reporters are trying to say they have reported only truth and the couple deserves the criticism but it has been an extreme case of bullying. Pull out the headlines, compare to those of other royals, its really be gross abuse.

People who live in glass houses shouldn't throw stones. Jane PE South Africa.

[janiceleighton]

I think the British are just not getting used to her atall

[chowmarina]

He lost his mother not at the hands of tabloids but by other evil forces.
