Her brother, also called Thomas, has said that Mr Markle "won’t saying anything publicly but he’ll apologise sincerely to Meg and the Royal Family".

I don't understand this.  "Colluding with paparazzi"?  Is that a crime now?  How is it embarrassing?

Like I said in the other thread, I'm not a fan of Piers Morgan or of the media, and it seems points were being made all around.  But these people are embarrassing.
