Prince Harry and Meghan hit back ‘inform not inflame’ over false Doria claim
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have issued a forceful response after GB News was compelled to apologise for broadcasting false claims about Meghan’s mother, Doria Ragland.
The couple’s spokesperson says that this should never have resurfaced in the first place.
In a strongly worded statement shared on Friday, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex accused the broadcaster and its commentators of recycling a long-debunked lie, despite it having been “conclusively disproven more than two years ago.”
The claim, which falsely alleged that Ms Ragland had served time in prison, was described as not only untrue but actively harmful.
“Broadcasters have a responsibility to inform, not inflame,” the spokesperson said, stressing that Ragland has never been incarcerated and “proudly raised her daughter.”
The statement also made clear that GB News’ apology was not voluntary, but issued only to avoid legal consequences adding pointedly that the apology itself was quietly removed within 24 hours.
The intervention marks another chapter in the Sussexes’ ongoing battle with what they see as unchecked misinformation in parts of the British media.
While Meghan has previously spoken about the personal toll media scrutiny has taken on her family, this response signals a hardening stance when it comes to false claims involving private individuals particularly those outside royal life.
The episode has reignited debate around editorial standards, accountability, and the role of broadcast media in amplifying claims that have already been discredited.
Jake Connelly, 13, made his major breakout in the final season of hit sci-fi series Stranger Things.
Connelly stars in the Netflix original as Derek Turnbow, a foul mouther school bully, who initially torments younger characters like Holly Wheeler (Nell Fisher).
Originally he appears to be a minor stereotypical bully, but the creators expanded his role turning Derek into a more compelling character who redeems himself and becomes an ally against the Upside Down threats.
Given his sudden rise, Connelly is set to make an appearance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon.
During the talk, the duo had a light-hearted conversation based on his role in Stranger Things.
Connelly shared some memorable moments from the set like being accidentally tackled by Noah Schnapp while filming and then next day Schnapp came to him to apologise.
He also shared how fans have given him nickname of “Delightful Derek” and “PG-13 Cartman” (from South) because of his hilarious, sassy attitude.
The series epic season finale will see Gaten Matarazzo, Caleb McLaughlin, Millie Bobby Brown, Finn Wolfhard, Noah Schnapp, Sadie Sink, Joe Keery, Natalia Dyer, Charlie Heaton, Winona Ryder, David Harbour, and more in their reprised roles, as they face off against the mysterious Upside Down for the last time.
Stranger Things season five volume two will be released on December 25, meanwhile, volume three will be released on New Year’s Eve, with limited theatrical release in over 350 theatres across USA and Canada on New Year’s Day.
