It will come as a surprise to some, but even Meghan has a right to her privacy. Do you remember that tabloid staple, the shagging footballer?
The love rat who played away, scoring with a casually met blonde who duly capitalised on her encounter with a spot of what used to be fondly known as kiss’n’tell? We don’t read so much about such beasts these days. I’m guessing this is not because young footballers have become more chaste or God-fearing. It’s because newspapers have become unable to persuade judges that it is in the public interest for the striker’s marital misdemeanours to be splattered all over their front page. Blame it on the Europeans – and the tabloids did. I parody only slightly. Thus we were landed with what editors were encouraged to disparage as “judge-made privacy law” or a “privacy law by the back door”. But will it? Footballers, celebrities and royals clearly have a very public aspect to their lives. Documents. Documents.

Le respect de la vie privée face à la liberté d’expression et au droit à l'information. Le droit met en balance des principes juridiques antagonistes : - la liberté d’expression et le droit à l'information ; - le droit au respect de la vie privée de chacun.
La liberté d’expression est une valeur essentielle de la démocratie mais à laquelle il est dérogé en cas d'atteinte à la vie privée La notion de "vie privée" est récente. Pendant longtemps, il n'existait pas de fondement légal à la protection de la vie privée. Il faudra attendre une loi du 17 juillet 1970 pour que soit inséré dans le Code civil un article 9 selon lequel : "chacun a droit au respect de sa vie privée". L’article 9 du Code civil qui comporte des termes très généraux a surtout permis aux juges de forger une jurisprudence protectrice du droit au respect de la vie privée des personnes. Ainsi, toute personne, même celle qui exerce des activités publiques, politiques, économiques ou professionnelles peut se prévaloir du principe du droit au respect de la vie privée.

Le respect et la garantie du droit à la vie privée, entraîne inévitablement une limitation de la liberté d'expression, et inversement.

We draw attention to three of these cases. This case law is important for media lawyers in England as it shows the way in which the domestic courts should be approaching these issues in accordance with their duty under section 6 of the Human Rights Act 1998. The first case is A v Norway (Judgment of 9 April 2009). The applicant was a convicted murderer who was questioned about the rape and murder of two young girls. A newspaper carried an article referring to the questioning of “a 42-year-old convicted murderer from Kristiansand” without naming him and including a photograph of the applicant, although not showing his face.

Von Hannover v. Germany (No. 2) Case Summary and Outcome The European Court of Human Rights (“ECtHR”) found that two photographs depicting a royal family on holiday and published in two German newspapers violated the right to privacy pursuant to Article 8 of the European Convention on Human Rights (“ECHR”) because they did not reflect any matter of public interest detailed in the accompanying text. However, a third photograph depicted a Prince in poor health, and since the health of the Prince was a matter of public concern the ECtHR found no violation of Article 8.
In reaching its ruling the ECtHR set out the criteria which domestic courts should follow when balancing the right to privacy pursuant to Article 8 against the right to freedom of expression under Article 10.
