Prince Harry traveled to the United Kingdom to face a new chapter of his legal battle against the editorial group of the Daily Mail newspaper, which he has sued along with other celebrities such as Elton John or Elisabeth Hurley, for violation of privacy and use of abusive methods to obtain information.
His appearance has been a surprise because the Duke of Sussex was initially scheduled to appear telematically from his home in the United States. Finally, and against all odds, he arrived early a day ago at the British courts for a hearing that has already been going on for two days.
The group of lawyers has issued a statement in which they say that their client has taken this step because he has been the victim of “abominable criminal activity“. Among the firm’s accusations are “secret bugging of his home and car, identity theft and access to bank accounts through illicit ways“.

Daily Mail strongly denies all allegations claiming that the complaint was based on “evidence that is not credible“. In his autobiographical book, Prince Harry recounts that his phone was hacked on three occasions and that aspects of his intimate life were aired to damage his image.
One of these were the photographs of the costume party in which he appeared dressed as a Nazi army officer or the discussion that Meghan Markle and Kate Middleton had over the dresses of the girls who carried the arras shortly before their wedding.
A version of events that has also confirmed the private detective, Gavin Burrows, in the BBC podcast Harry, Meghan and the media to ensure that he used unethical methods to collect information about Harry and his entourage, such as analyzing his trash and phone records.
