www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2022/01/17/meghan-markle-complains-bbc-podcast-claim-apologised-misleading/

She has complained to the BBC that he said on the podcast that she “misled the court” in the Daily Mail case.

I thought she apologised for misleading the court and insisted it was inadvertent?

AR’s BBC documentary seemed quite pro-Sussex, so this is confusing.

I hadn’t heard of the podcast but will have a listen now. (Streisand effect rides again,)

Is there some difference between British and American English that might explain this? I cannot figure it out,

@Mangowood

Who knows? Maybe because people knew Meghan was misleading the court?
There was a report, might have been said in court actually, that said that JS had refused to testify initially. But after MM won her case, he thought she had said things that weren't true and he wanted it corrected.

Now I don't know his motivation, maybe he wanted to discredit her, maybe it was a William plot, or maybe he just wanted to correct things that had been said, but MM did not correct or deny his evidence which was supported with emails. And she did apologise to the court.

It is all their in the court papers

All employees sign an NDA. Jason proactively went to the mail, there is no way he would do that without the permission of his employer.
And William promoted him

nottodaybatman · 18/01/2022 18:19

All I am saying forgetting about approving basic facts being released while interesting is nowhere near as interesting as Jason Knauf and William working together with the MoS for years to attack meghan

Also if she was a true collaborator why didn't she get an advance copy of the book? Doesn't make sense

madisonbridges · 18/01/2022 18:20

But the real question is why the Duke of Cambridge allowed his employee to breach his NDA and hand over confidential emails purely to generate click bait for the mail.

People seem invested in all this being a William plot, and maybe it is, but an NDA can't be used to cover up illegal activities. It seems strong to say that misleading the court, even if it wasn't her intention, is an illegal activity, but I think you'll find a person knowing a false fact has been used in a court case, can't be silenced by an NDA. William has no right to forbid anyone from correcting a lie/error/or whatever you call it.

As I said, NDAs can't prevent people from correcting factual errors in a court case. William can't forbid him. If you had told the truth in a case at work and then didn't get a promotion you deserved, wouldn't you be annoyed. Why should you be punished for telling the truth? Why should JS?

How do we know she didn't?

nottodaybatman · 18/01/2022 18:26

What illegal activities?

Jason introduced evidence that was irrelevant. The judge said as much. Meghan forgot because it was irrelevant. She won her first case because it was slam dunk.... introducing random stuff about ff in the second case that she didn't remember Isn't illegal. If it was the judge would have done something

Jason was helping the mail in their first case. This matters because the argument has always been that there were negative meghan stories because the tabloids organically woke up and decided meghan was witch of the week. But from the mos Court case we now know that the Cambridges were helping the mail.

That is really shocking. Meghan was pregnant during most of this and her brother in law was helping the mail attack her. Its wild

nottodaybatman · 18/01/2022 18:28

I am just saying by all means stay fixated on the forgotten email.

But I cannot get over William attacking his pregnant sister in law with mail of all publications.

Where is any proof that William has been involved with leaking stories?

This gets trotted out all the time but quite simply no-one on these forums has any evidence.

Meghans team, along with MOS have been caught by the judge in the case passing information onto the press (Omid Scobie) due to court filings being released before they have been submitted.

Mangowood · 18/01/2022 18:43

That's quite a defamatory statement about William, good job he's not into suing people.

nottodaybatman · 18/01/2022 18:47

Jason knauf was Williams employee

Jason broke his NDA
He worked with the Mail to prep their case and provided emails. His employer, wiliam could have fired him for breach of contract or told him to stop, instead he promoted him.

These are not the actions of a man blind sided by his employee. Again you do not have to like your relatives but she was pregnant, then she had miscarriage and then we was pregnant again. At no point did Jason pull back so william was satisfied with his conduct.

That is cold blooded behaviour

@ Samcro

Not sure I agree with you . Just checked DM and lead story is that neither A nor H will receive Jubilee medals and BOTH are to be stripped of their Counsellor of State status . M story is near the bottom of the page .
Nothing about either A or H on BBC front page .

Another paper is reporting the opposite, think it was the Telegraph. I suppose is the papers agree that half report one thing and half report the opposite they will all get it right sometimes.
madisonbridges · 18/01/2022 18:50

Ii explained illegal activities in my post.

In the first hearing Meghan submitted the claim that she had not cooperated with Scobies book. That wasn't true.
JS then knew that the court has been, intentionally or not, misled. It is against the law to mislead in court. An NDA can't stop someone from correcting that factual error. William can't use an NDA to stop him testifying.

I never heard or read anything in the court case that William helped the MOS. Can you refer me to that transcript because that is interesting?

nottodaybatman · 18/01/2022 18:50

It's not defamatory it's basic facts

All employees sign NDAs
Their employers can release them from NDAs
Employees can be fired for breaking their NDAs
Jason Knauf worked with the Mail on Sunday for years
Jason knauf provided emails from the Palace
He has been promoted by William
He has not been fired
Meghan has been pregnant, she has 2 children to show for it.
My assumption that William is and was happy with his behaviour is not illogical

Mangowood · 18/01/2022 18:51

Cold-blooded behaviour, like a global interview slating your family as your grandfather was dying?

madisonbridges · 18/01/2022 18:52

Jason broke his NDA
NDAs cannot be used to stop someone testifying in court if an untruth has been told. William can't stop him from telling the truth.

Chilledchablis1 · 18/01/2022 18:54

@ nottodaybatman
“Jason pushes the issue and she authorised the standard bio facts to be released.”

Is mentioning that her half sister has 3 children by different men a standard bio fact ?

Chilledchablis1 · 18/01/2022 18:55

Where is the evidence that William was behind leaks ?

nottodaybatman · 18/01/2022 18:56

Jason was not summoned to court he ran to the mail and gave them emails to argue a point irrelevant to the case.
If this point about FF was super duper important she would have won and the judge would have punished her right?
The MoS never had a winnable case

They introduced as much random stuff into evidence to create click bait headlines.
Jason helped them voluntarily and William was totally fine with it.

Where is your proof William is part of it?

Multiple times you have been told that NDA cannot be used to stop someone testifying in court if an untruth has been told.

LondonWolf · 18/01/2022 19:00

Maybe they just don't like liars? Especially ones who cast themselves as squeaky clean victims while dragging the rest of the family as nasty, abusive racists?

nottodaybatman · 18/01/2022 19:02

Right so you agree it was voluntary and a choice.
William and his employer worked with the MoS to attack his pregnant sister in law for years.

Ok cool

Don't be so ridiculous Grin? I'm just throwing out emotive nonsense like you?

Again as I said elsewhere I am reminded of my children who pretend they've "won" the discussion by stating that they have and they're glad everyone agrees.

madisonbridges · 18/01/2022 19:08

I agree it was never a winnable case. The MOS approached JS and he didn't let them release his evidence. After MM unintentionally lied, JS said they could use his evidence to correct thar fact. An NDA can't stop that.

Let's say you worked for a billionaire,and he didn't want his private life splashed everywhere, so he made you sign an NDA. If you heard that he was plotting insider dealing, would you think because you'd signed an NDA you couldn't tell anyone. No, of course not.
Obviously I'm not comparing a that to a lie. At all. But if someone knows a lie has been told in court, you don't need the cooperation from your employer to correct that. An NDA doesn't cover things like that.

It's immaterial whether the court thinks that changes the facts of the case or not, MM had to apologise to the court because what she did was wrong.

Where is the evidence that PW conspired with the MOS?

nottodaybatman · 18/01/2022 19:10

It's not about winning or losing
I don't need you to agree with me, it's a message board to discuss people we don't know

I just find it strange that people fixate on FF which didn't help with the case. But they ignore that william and Jason voluntarily involved themselves in case that was nothing to do with them to help the MoS bash his pregnant sister in law.

I just find it interesting
