Overview
- Harry delivered emotional in-person testimony at the High Court in London, saying harassment worsened after he filed suit and describing the toll on his family.
- The claimants allege ANL used illegal methods between roughly 2001 and 2013, including voicemail hacking, landline interception, GPS tracking, and fraudulent access to medical and bank records.
- ANL’s defense argues its stories relied on lawful sources and potential leaks from Harry’s circle, which he disputes while denying he contacted a Mail reporter using a “Mr. Mischief” alias or met her in Ibiza.
- Harry says he wants a public apology and accountability rather than primarily financial damages, and he traveled from California to attend the multi-week trial.
- The case includes other high-profile claimants such as Elton John, Elizabeth Hurley, and Sadie Frost, and Harry says coverage of Meghan was cruel and at times racist, intensifying during her pregnancy and after Archie’s birth.
