Prince Harry made history on Tuesday, becoming the first senior royal to enter the witness box in over 130 years. He is testifying as part of a wider case against the Mirror Group Newspapers, alleging that the publishers used illegal means such as phone-hacking and hiring private investigators to obtain information for articles about high profile people, including himself. The publishers have denied the claims and alleged there is “zero” evidence of Harry’s phone being hacked, also claiming his claim exceeds the legal time limit for such cases. Other celebrities are also set to take the stand in this civil test case which is expected to run until the end of June. If these four claimants win, the judge will use their case as a template for how much the publisher needs to pay in damages for other phone-hacking cases. On his first day in court, Harry made a series of disclosures in his 49-page witness statement, including accusing editors and journalists of having “blood” on their hands and blaming them for his and Meghan’s decision to leave the UK.
