Prince Harry and Duchess Meghan sue again. This time it's about paparazzi shots of little Archie in Los Angeles.
Prince Harry (35) and Duchess Meghan (38) have not escaped the paparazzi in the USA either. The couple have now filed a lawsuit in California, according to the Hollywood Reporter, who has the relevant court documents. The couple sees the privacy of son Archie (1) violated. The accusation: paparazzi are said to have illegally photographed their son in their home garden in Los Angeles.
It is enough for the Duke and Duchess of Sussex
To get the pictures of Archie and his parents, apparently neither paparazzi nor the US media shy away from costs and efforts. Up to three times a day, drones would fly just a few meters above the house, according to her lawyer’s indictment. Helicopters would fly over the garden at 5:30 a.m. to 7 p.m. and would not only wake Archie, but also the neighbors. Even holes had been cut in the security fence of the house to look through.
So far, Harry and Meghan would have ignored the whole thing, but now they have found out that photos of their son are being sold that are said to have been taken in public. According to the couple's lawyer, Archie was not in Malibu, where the photos are said to have been taken. The Duke and Duchess of Sussex "would have done everything in their power to stay out of the spotlight" – except when it came to their work. This may also be reported.
However, the photos in question were not news-related and would not represent a public interest. "They are annoying. The only reason to take and / or sell such invasive photos is to earn money on a child." It continues: "The Duke and Duchess of Sussex file this lawsuit to protect their little son's right to privacy in their home without interference from photographers, and to uncover and stop those who have committed these illegal activities want to benefit.
