"I really feel that in every relationship I have there has always been a third party called the tabloid press," Prince Harry testified. As a teenager I felt like they wanted to punish me. They thought people would believe whatever they printed about me. Journalists from the tabloid press were constantly prodding me to do something stupid so they could get a sensational story and sell their newspapers in big numbers. Looking back today I think such behavior on their part was extremely evil. "I have decided to go to court to demand an answer for what those people have done," Harry said. I want to thoroughly investigate this matter first and last time.

Harry, who now lives in the US as an ordinary citizen with his wife Meghan Markle and two children Archie and Lilybet, has left the royal family and said that his personal life has been affected by the tactics adopted by MGN newspapers. MGN denied the allegations, arguing that it was too late to take legal action. MGN's lawyers will cross-examine Prince Harry this week. Harry alleged that between 1996 and 2010, approximately 140 articles were published in which information was obtained using illegal methods. According to the court report, 33 of these articles have been selected for this case.
