‘INVASIVE AND INTRUSIVE’

Paparazzi Agency ‘Unlawfully Invaded’ Meghan’s Privacy With Archie Photos, Court Hears

Markle took legal action against Splash News and Picture Agency over the photos, which were taken in a Canadian park when she was out for a walk with Archie.

A paparazzi agency that took photos of Meghan Markle and baby Archie near their home “unlawfully invaded” her privacy and it has agreed to not take photos of them again, a court heard Friday. Markle took action against Splash News and Picture Agency over the photos, which were taken in a Canadian park when she was out for a walk last January. The agency has since gone into administration, but a statement read to the court said that a settlement had been agreed. It also said: “Splash UK will not take any photographs of the duke and duchess or their son in the future.” A spokesperson for Markle’s law firm said: “This settlement is a clear signal that unlawful, invasive, and intrusive paparazzi behaviour will not be tolerated, and that the couple takes these matters seriously—just as any family would.”
