Meghan Markle’s lawyers didn’t waste any time responding to the lawsuit filed by her half-sister. According to TMZ, the Duchess of Sussex’s legal team called Samantha Markle’s claims “offensive” and “inappropriate” and explained to the judge overseeing the case, Charlene Edwards Honeywell, that Meghan was simply giving her recollection of her childhood and her relationship (or lack thereof) with Samantha. Interestingly, Honeywell did say that she was “struggling” to see how Meghan’s comments were in any way defamatory. In fact, she said that the case “may be ripe for dismissal,” according to BBC News.
The court documents obtained by Entertainment Tonight show that Samantha is seeking some $75,000 in damages — and that she’s hoping the case goes to court. Meanwhile, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex seem to be level-headed in how they are handling the latest attempt by someone in the family to paint them in a bad light. Neither Meghan nor Harry have spoken out publicly about Samantha’s lawsuit.
