Meg’s mate facing jail

-

A WOMEN’S rights activist who befriended Meghan Markle at a global conference is facing a long jail sentence in Saudi Arabia.

Loujain Al-Hathloul, 28, has allegedly confessed to conspiring with enemies of the Middle Eastern kingdom and could be imprisoned for treason. Treason can carry a 20year sentence – or even the death penalty.

Miss Al-Hathloul met Meghan, now the Duchess of Sussex, two years ago when they attended a humanitari­an summit in Ottawa, Canada.
