UK’s Prince Harry, Meghan Markle warns media over photos

LONDON: Britains Prince Harry and his wife Meghan Markle have started their new life in Canada after stepping down from their royal duties, even as they have issued a legal warning to the media for clicking their pictures without consent. According to a royal source, the publication of photographs showing the Duchess of Sussex hiking with baby Archie and their dogs in a Canadian woodland on Tuesday prompted a warning to the media from the couple’s lawyers against running images without consent.

The warning came after the media published images of Meghan taking a stroll along with the couple’s son Prince Archie and their two dogs at a park in Canada. They have been used by several outlets, including on the front page of the Sun, Britain’s best-selling daily newspaper.

Lawyers say there have also been attempts to photograph the couple inside their home using long-range lenses and they accuse the paparazzi of being camped outside the property, BBC reported. Under the laws in British Columbia, the Duchess may have grounds for a legal case if she can prove her privacy has been violated, although freedom of the press and expression is guaranteed under the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms.
