Prince Harry's wife, Meghan Markle, has apologized to a British court for providing false information or keeping confidential information confidential in a case involving the publication of "private material".
According to the BBC, Meghan Markle has apologized to the court in the case against the British newspaper The Mail and its subsidiary The Mail on Sunday.
The court ruled in favor of Meghan Markle in February this year, but now the princess has apologized for keeping the information secret.
In October 2019, Meghan Markle filed a lawsuit against the British newspaper The Mail and its subsidiary The Mail on Sunday for publishing a personal letter to her father.
The Mail on Sunday published a letter from Meghan Markle to her father in 2018, on which the princess had filed a lawsuit against the newspaper.
And even before the trial began, Meghan Markle had asked the court to rule in her favor.
The court ruled in her favor in February, saying the Daily Mail had interfered in her private affairs by publishing excerpts from a letter written by Meghan Markle to her father and violated British publishing laws.
But now, seven months after winning the case, Meghan Markle has admitted in court that she kept some information secret from the court at the time.
In this regard, CNN reported that Meghan Markle in her statement submitted to the London Court of Appeal apologized for keeping the information confidential.
In her statement, Meghan Markle admitted that she had allowed her personal secretary to provide information about events and problems in her life to the authors who wrote the book on her life.
According to reports, the book also includes a letter written to her father and Meghan Markle did not tell the court about it, to which she has now apologized.
Meghan Markle made it clear that her intention was not to deceive the court but that she had forgotten about it.
The BBC reported in another report that Meghan Markle had apologized at a time when her former secretary had revealed that Prince Harry's wife herself had leaked a lot of information to the authors who wrote the book on her life. Was instructed to provide.
On the other hand, Reuters reported that after Meghan Markle apologized to the court, the Daily Mail filed a petition in the court that the decision in favor of the princess should be declared null and void.
According to the newspaper's petition, Meghan Markle has now admitted that she kept the information confidential from the court and that the newspaper did not violate any private matter by publishing a letter written to her father. Therefore, the decision of the court in favor of Meghan Markle should be withdrawn.
At the newspaper's request, the appellate court judges said in their remarks that the decision on whether to reverse the decision in favor of Meghan Markle would take time and that the court was reviewing past decisions.
If the court accepts the Daily Mail's application and reverses the decision in favor of Meghan Markle, then the trial of the said case will continue.
Meghan Markle and her father are likely to appear in court during the trial and will have to prove how their letter came to be a private matter, including in a book published in the American magazine People.
