Actress Keira Knightley has filed a lawsuit for libel against the publisher of the British tabloid Daily Mail. Knightley claims in her personal injury lawsuit that the tabloid “dishonestly sought to mislead the public" about whether she had anorexia and also linked her alleged condition to the death of a teenage girl caused by an eating disorder. Knightley expressed her sympathies for the family of the girl.
The Keira Knightley libel lawsuit also states that the Daily Mail showed pictures of the thin actress in a bikini without her permission. Knightley and her personal injury attorneys deny that the actress is anorexic but did admit that her family has a history of anorexia. This lawsuit against Associated Newspapers is expected to go to trial in London’s High Court sometime this year or early next year. The 21-year-old Knightley has appeared in popular movies like “Pirates of the Caribbean: At Worlds End,” “Love Actually” and “Bend It Like Beckham.”
