Because of illegally collected information about his private life, Prince Harry (38) is demanding a hefty payment from the publisher of the British newspaper ‘Mirror’. According to court documents, the son of King Charles III. up to £320,000 in damages.
Harry’s lawyers allege that between 1996 and 2020, Mirror Group Newspapers’ Daily Mirror, Sunday Mirror and People newspapers used illegally obtained material for numerous stories. It was about Harry’s relationships with his family or his then-girlfriend Chelsy Davy, illnesses, his military service or alleged drug use.
During a two-day cross-examination, Harry personally testified in court that the reports had destroyed friendships and relationships and created paranoia. The publisher has admitted methods such as illegal eavesdropping in the past, but dismisses virtually all current allegations. MGN lawyers have admitted a case and offered £500 damages.
A ruling is expected at a later date. (sda/dpa)
