The duchess's half-sister says Meghan 'falsely and maliciously' said she was 'an only child'.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex will be deposed as part of a US defamation case brought by Meghan's half-sister.
The duchess' half-sister claimed, in a filing submitted in March, that Meghan made "demonstrably false and malicious statements" to a worldwide audience. The documents, obtained by PA News agency, stated: "Defendant Markle does not show that unusual circumstances justify the requested stay, or that prejudice or an undue burden will result if the court does not impose a stay.
"Plaintiff - who suffers from multiple sclerosis and is confined to a wheelchair - brings this action for defamation based on demonstrably false and malicious statements made by her half-sister to a worldwide audience, including roughly 50 million people in 17 countries who watched the Oprah Winfrey interview with the Defendant, Meghan Markle, and her husband, Prince Harry of England," the filing stated.
