Meghan Markle to receive just £1 from Mail on Sunday for privacy invasion

Newspaper accepts defeat and will pay additional unspecified sum for infringing her copyright

The Mail on Sunday will also pay an unspecified sum for the separate case of infringing Meghan’s copyright by publishing large parts of a letter she had sent to her father

The Mail on Sunday will pay the Duchess of Sussex just £1 (€1.20) in damages for invading her privacy by publishing a private letter she had sent to her father.

The nominal sum is set out in court documents that also formally confirm that the newspaper – and its sister website MailOnline – has accepted defeat and will not be taking the long-running case to a supreme court appeal.
