What led the royal couple to consider official action against Trump?
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s potential lawsuit against the sitting President of the United States stems from remarks he allegedly made about the spouses. While the exact statements remain undisclosed, sources suggest they were defamatory and could have legal implications. The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have previously faced public scrutiny, but this marks one of the most high-profile disputes involving the U.S. leader.
Lawyers guess that the partners may pursue a maligning case, given their history of defending their image. If they proceed, the lawsuit could set a significant precedent for how public figures handle controversial assertions made by political leaders. Meanwhile, the head of state has not publicly commented on the matter, leaving many to question how the legitimate proceedings might unfold.
Could Meghan and Harry's case against Trump impact their reputation?
Royal expert Ingrid Seward weighed in on the controversy, describing Trump’s remarks as “incredibly hurtful” and “terrible.” She acknowledged that, while many may privately agree with his comments, publicly making them was unnecessarily harsh. Seward also speculated that spouses might pursue legal action, particularly given their California base, where Trump’s Republican stance could amplify reactions to his declarations.

Trump has previously labeled Meghan Markle as “divisive” and used derogatory language, further straining relations between the Sussexes and the White House. He notably praised Prince William during a private meeting in Paris while dismissing any interest in deporting Harry, adding that the Duke was already “led around by the nose” and that Meghan was “a terrible wife.” With mounting tensions and public analysis, the potential litigation could have lasting consequences for both the regal pair and the president.
