Harry and Meghan file a lawsuit
24th July 2020: Harry and Meghan Markle have filed a lawsuit to protect their son Archie’s right to privacy in their home.
According to Sky News, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex have filed a lawsuit in Los Angeles after drones were allegedly used to photograph their 14-month-old son Archie in the back garden of their home.
The couple has filed a complaint on Thursday that unnamed photographers had breached their privacy and that they wanted to use subpoenas to pursue anyone trying to sell the photos until they can be identified.

The lawsuit said Harry and Meghan had moved from the UK to Canada at the beginning of the year and enjoyed six weeks undisturbed before their location was published by the Daily Mail.
The couple has complained of seeing flying drones as low as 20ft above the house as often as three times a day. Helicopters were also seen as early as 5.30 am and as late as 7 pm, disturbing neighbors and waking baby Archie.
Some photographers even cut holes in the security fence around the home, the complaint alleges. However, the recent incident has alerted the couple and forced them to file a complaint.

Harry and Meghan said someone had been selling photos of Archie, falsely claiming to have taken them during a recent public outing in Malibu, despite Archie never having been in public or in Malibu since the family arrived in the US.
The couple alleges that the photos were taken of the activities at their back yard without their knowledge.
The court documents said: “The unscrupulous people shopping these photographs have not innocently mislabelled the photographs as having been taken in a public place.”
“They have done so intentionally because they know that unsolicited photographs of a young child in the privacy of his own home are very much unlawful.”
The couple has done everything to stay out of the limelight except for their work which was newsworthy. “But the photos at issue are not news,” they said. “They are not in the public interest. They are harassment.”
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex are filing this lawsuit to protect their son’s right to privacy in their home without intrusion by photographers and to uncover and stop those who seek to profit from these illegal actions.
