A U.K. court is expected to issue a ruling Tuesday morning in a privacy invasion case filed by Prince Harry and six other parties against Associated Newspapers Limited, the publisher of the Daily Mail and Mail on Sunday. The four-year legal battle stems from claims first filed in 2022.
The plaintiffs alleged they were victims of criminal activity and gross breaches of privacy, accusing the publisher of hiring private investigators who used unlawful methods including hidden listening devices in cars and homes and payments to police officials for information.
Associated Newspapers has denied the allegations, describing them as preposterous, unsubstantiated, highly defamatory and based on no credible evidence. Prince Harry traveled from his home in California to testify at London's High Court on Jan.
19, 2026. In his testimony he referenced his late mother, Princess Diana, who died in a Paris car crash on Aug. 31, 1997, while being pursued by paparazzi. "I think it's wrong to put us through this again when all we required is an apology and some accountability," Harry said at the conclusion of his testimony.
Harry is currently in London for a previously planned trip focused on charities including the Invictus Games.
