英國哈里王子發聲明護女友 斥媒體欺侮和騷擾

Britain's Prince Harry warned the media last Tuesday against harassing his American girlfriend, actress Meghan Markle, in a rare statement issued by Kensington Palace.

在肯辛頓宮於上週二發佈的罕見聲明中，英國哈里王子警告媒體不要騷擾其美籍演員女友梅根·馬克爾。

The statement, which confirms the pair's relationship for the first time, said that the past week has seen a line crossed.

這份首次證實兩人戀愛關係的聲明稱，在過去一週的時間裏，媒體越線了。

"His girlfriend Meghan Markle has been subject to a wave of abuse and harassment," read the statement, which was issued by Prince Harry's communications secretary through the palace Twitter account.

這份由哈里王子的公關祕書通過肯辛頓宮推特賬號發佈的聲明寫道：“他的女友梅根·馬克爾一直備受侮辱和騷擾。”

"Some of this has been very public - the smear on the front page of a national newspaper; the racial undertones of comment pieces; and the outright sexism and racism of social media trolls and web article comments."

“其中一部分是非常公開的——某全國性報紙頭版刊登的詆譭文字；評論文章字裏行間透露的種族主義論調；以及社交媒體釣魚帖和網絡文章評論區中充斥的赤裸裸的性別主義和種族主義言辭。”

The statement said Markle has had photographers try to break into her home and that her ex-boyfriend had been offered "substantial bribes" by various newspapers.

這份聲明稱，有些攝影記者試圖闖入馬克爾的家中，還有多家報紙出“重金收買”其前男友。

"Prince Harry is worried about Ms Markle's safety and is deeply disappointed that he has not been able to protect her," the statement read.

聲明中還寫道：“哈里王子擔心馬克爾小姐的安全，也爲自己沒能保護她而深感失望。”
