Prince Harry Set to Testify in Phone Hacking Lawsuit Against Daily Mirror Publisher

  • Prince Harry's phone hacking lawsuit against Mirror Group Newspapers began in London, with the publisher apologizing for unlawfully gathering information about the royal in 2004.
  • Harry is one of four claimants in a trial examining alleged historic phone hacking and unlawful information gathering by Mirror Group Newspapers between 1995 and 2011.

  • Harry and his wife Meghan have filed at least seven lawsuits against media organizations since leaving the royal family, alleging misuse of private information and copyright infringement.
  • The trial is also examining alleged phone hacking of Harry's associates, including his father King Charles and a former girlfriend, the late TV presenter Caroline Flack.
