Campbell v MGN Ltd

Campbell v MGN Ltd was a 2004 UK case where supermodel Naomi Campbell sued a newspaper for publishing details of her drug treatment, which she argued was a violation of her privacy. The court decided that celebrities have a right to privacy, especially regarding personal health, even if the information is true and published as journalism. The case emphasized balancing freedom of the press with individuals’ right to privacy, establishing that publishing private information about public figures must be justified and not just for sensationalism.
