It's another small victory for Associated Newspapers in Meghan Markle's privacy case against them. The newspaper group were granted permission to argue that Meghan and Harry assisted authors who recently published a book documenting their exit from the royal firm. The royal couple have denied the claims with their lawyers saying the defence has "no merit and is in fact false". A court allowed a British newspaper group on Tuesday to amend its defence against a high-profile claim by Meghan Markle for breach of privacy and copyright. Harry has separately brought cases against News Group Newspapers and Mirror Group Newspapers over alleged phone hacking in the past.
