Female MPs declare ‘solidarity’ with Meghan over press ‘invasion’
Female MPs have declared their “solidarity” with the Duchess of Sussex over “distasteful and misleading” stories about her.
In an open letter to Meghan, the cross-party group of “all political persuasions” says certain articles have “represented an invasion of your privacy” and “sought to cast aspersions about your character”.
The duchess recently revealed that British friends told her not to marry Prince Harry because the tabloid press would “destroy” her life.

Some stories have been “seeking to tear a woman down for no apparent reason”, the MPs add.
Such items have been written “without any good reason as far as we can see”, the group of 72 continue.
