A statement obtained by People.com from an official spokesperson for the Duke and Duchess of Sussex said, "The Duchess is saddened by this latest attack on her character, particularly as someone who has been the target of bullying herself and is deeply committed to supporting those who have experienced pain and trauma. She is determined to continue her work building compassion around the world and will keep striving to set an example for doing what is right and doing what is good." Apart from this, a host of Hollywood celebrities have rushed to the Duchess of Sussex's aid following these claims. Meghan Markle's former Suits co-star Patrick J Adams recently sent out a number of tweets against the Royal Palace accusing them of slander and many other things.

Meghan Markle and I spent the better part of a decade working together on Suits. From day one she was an enthusiastic, kind, cooperative, giving, joyful and supportive member of our television family. She remained that person and colleague as fame, prestige and power accrued.
