Prince Harry has officially launched legal proceedings against the owners of British newspapers The Sun and The Daily Mirror. This follows his strongly-worded letter to the British media that was published last week.
"Unfortunately, my wife has become one of the latest victims of a British tabloid press that wages campaigns against individuals with no thought to the consequences — a ruthless campaign that has escalated over the past year, throughout her pregnancy and while raising our newborn son," the statement read.
This letter also outlined legal action that Meghan had filed for against The Mail for allegedly publishing unlawfully a private letter "in an intentionally destructive manner" in order to manipulate the public.
According to The Guardian, "Buckingham Palace confirmed that claims had been filed at the high court regarding alleged illegal interception of voicemail messages."
In his letter, Harry stated, "It is for this reason we are taking legal action, a process that has been many months in the making. The positive coverage of the past week from these same publications exposes the double standards of this specific press pack that has vilified her almost daily for the past nine months."
