Samantha is in legal battle with Meghan
Samantha is suing the former Suits actress for making “demonstrably false and malicious statements” about her during the famous interview they both gave to Oprah Winfrey in 2021.
Aside from the Oprah interview, Samantha also pointed to comments made in the 2020 biography ‘Finding Freedom’.
The most recent reports indicate that Meghan is “very upset” about the way South Park creators and Comedy Central have portrayed them, but despite this, a representative for the Duke and Duchess of Sussex says they will not be filing any kind of lawsuit against the show.
Despite reports that the couple is taking legal action against the animated series, a representative for the Duke and Duchess of Sussex told PEOPLE: “It’s all bullshit, frankly. Completely unfounded, frivolous reports. “
The clarification comes after Comedy Central released new episodes on Wednesday. The storyline, titled “Worldwide Privacy Tour” follows a “Canadian prince and princess” who move to a fictional Colorado town to avoid media coverage.
Samantha Markle, 58, is claiming 62,000 ($75,000) in damages for Meghan’s claims in the Oprah interview and on “Finding Freedom.”
