Royal set to give evidence in landmark trial

The Duke of Sussex is due to give evidence at the High Court on Tuesday in his case against the Daily Mirror‘s publisher over alleged unlawful information gathering.

Prince Harry will be the first senior royal since the 19th century to face cross-examination in a witness box. He alleges that Mirror Group Newspapers (MGN) used methods including phone hacking to publish 140 stories about his private life from 1996 to 2010.

MGN claims the articles came from a range of legitimate sources – rather than unlawful means – such as other royals, members of the royal household and freelance journalists.
