Megan Markle

The Court of Appeal rejected Associated Newspapers' attempt to have a trial in the privacy and copyright case.

Meghan said it was a win "not just for me, but for anyone who has ever felt scared to stand up for what's right".

Associated Newspapers said it was disappointed, and was considering a further appeal to the Supreme Court.

A judge had previously ruled in favour of Meghan after extracts from the letter appeared in the paper.

Meghan Markle and Prince Harry hugged and shared a conversation with Beyoncé, who wore a custom gold pleated gown with a thigh-high slit by Cong Tri, and her husband JAY-Z at the London premiere of The Lion King on Sunday. The singer voices Nala in the new live-action revamp of the beloved 1994 Disney film.

While Meghan has walked plenty of red carpets as an actress, Sunday marked her first film premiere as a royal. She and Harry left 2-month-old son Archie at home for the night out, where they also had run-ins with several cast members.

Samantha Markle has been travelling in Italy, and the 53-year-old is determined to meet with the Duchess of Sussex before she returns home to the United States.

Her publicist Rob Cooper made a series of vaguely threatening tweets on Monday (local time), claiming that Ms Markle had tried to organise a one-on-one meeting with the Duchess, but her pleas had gone ignored by Kensington Palace.

"Samantha Markle is coming to the UK," Mr Cooper promised. "I currently have Samantha in Europe with just one short flight away."
