Prince Harry has reached a significant settlement in a highly contested lawsuit against Rupert Murdoch’s UK tabloid publisher. The publisher has issued a public apology and agreed to pay the prince a “substantial” amount in damages over allegations of phone hacking and privacy violations.
During a hearing at the London High Court, Harry’s lawyer, David Sherborne, shared the details of the settlement, stating, “News Group Newspapers offers a full and unequivocal apology for the phone hacking, surveillance, and misuse of private information by journalists and private investigators acting on their behalf.”
This marks a pivotal moment in the prince’s long-standing battle for privacy and justice in the face of media misconduct.
