Prince Harry and his wife Meghan Markle have sued over photos of their son, Archie. Prince Harry and Meghan Markle claim the aforesaid photos were most likely captured via a drone or using a telephoto lens while the couple was in their backyard in the L.A. area, which commits a breach of California’s alleged paparazzi law. As part of a controversial move, they stepped down from their royal duties and left the U.K. earlier this year.
Prince Harry and Meghan claim in an invasion of privacy lawsuit that the couple filed in California on Thursday, that they have not been able to get away from the paparazzi, who they suggest have used drones and telephoto lenses to capture unauthorized pictures of their son, Archie. The Duke and Duchess of Sussex are seen along with their 14-month-old son in the photo, sitting in the backyard of their estate in the L.A. area where they have holed up for the majority of the year, according to the lawsuit.

The complaint also reveals that the lawsuit does not have the defendants mentioned on it because the couple does not know who captured those photos. Keeping in line with that, the complaint simply listed the defendants as John Does. The couple’s lawyer is leaving no stone unturned in a bid to subpoena people who may know about the intrusions, The New York Times reported.
Prince Harry and Meghan are suing under California’s alleged paparazzi law, which suggests a person can be held liable civilly for airspace intrusions for taking photographs of a person on private property. The lawsuit marks the latest clash between the media and the British royal family over privacy issues.

“The plaintiffs have done everything in their power to stay out of the limelight — except in connection with their work, which they freely admit is newsworthy,” the lawsuit says. “But the photos at issue are not news. They are not in the public interest. They are harassment.”
The couple’s lawyer, Michael J. Kump has a slew of other notable clients including fashion and makeup mogul Kim Kardashian West.

Noting is wrong with them it’s ever body else that just refuse to let them live the life they want…just like most of us..So what’s wrong with you people…
Harry, grow up, is this woman worth losing your family, Your son is missing a lot of loving
From the Queen (Grandma and Grandpa). One day, you will be sorry and it will be too late.
I regret you live in the US, the worse place to chose. Your brother who looked out for you
All his life, don’t you feel guilty on walking out on him and your family? I am wishing you luck
Choose the right way of life and you will be happy.
Sorry to say this she is delusional, she thinks everyone is against her. Well if they are not now they soon will be, all her moaning and throwing accusations all over the place. Could someone arrange for them to go on the next Rocket to wherever they will get the peace they crave. However something tells me they will find fault with that. They are best just forgotten let the reporters leave them alone and not give either of them any publicity. The only person I am so very sorry for is poor little Archie what a life is that child living no little Friends…and just them two and her Mum. My heart goes out to him. And just for the few this is not racist in any way shape or form I would say the same if the were any colour under the sun, I am not a troll and never have been I don’t hate then I pity them and feel sorry for the child. This is my opinion as was asked if me at the top of the page. Anyone has the right to put your take on things these are mine. So all you people that try to castigate anyone who dares to say something you people don’t like . Sorry you have your chance try to tell it without it being a witch hunt. Have a good dayxx
What is wrong with this couple ???? Most parents love to show and brag about their babies ,,,, is there something wrong or special about Archie. That they don’t want people to know. .??????
