Prince Harry unexpectedly appeared in London at the High Court building. Nothing was known about the visit of the younger son of King Charles III, so his arrival in the British capital became one of the main news.
According to Reuters, the Duke of Sussex decided to support other celebrities in their lawsuit against The Daily Mail and Associated Newspapers (ANL), which owns this popular publication. Together with Harry, Sir Elton John, actresses Elizabeth Gurley and Sadie Frost, as well as several other people filed.

They allege that the paper’s reporters, with the approval of their superiors, have been secretly wiretapping and spying on celebrities over the past few years. This was done in order to collect information about personal life. Then all this was published, but the original sources were not named. The standard phrase was used that the information was provided by insiders.
Prince Harry stresses that The Daily Mail’s actions have created “an atmosphere of paranoia and suspicion”. After regular publications about him and his family, the Duke of Sussex began to suspect his friends and even blamed some of them. This led to the rupture of friendly relations. In addition, the publication regularly published false information or data of a purely personal nature. And it hurt not only Harry, but also his loved ones.
Similar accusations against the publication are made by other plaintiffs. They were also present on 27 March in court. Elton John arrived one of the first. Harry followed him, then Elizabeth Gurley. Sadie Frost arrived last.

Lawyers for ANL vehemently deny the allegations. They stated that they intended to seek dismissal of the claim.
While the preliminary hearings are going on. The judge will not hear either the plaintiffs or the defendants. Only lawyers speak. It will probably last four days. Then the judge must decide on the claim - either it will be accepted for consideration or dismissed.
A spokesman for Prince Harry said that the Duke of Sussex intends to remain in London until the completion of the preliminary hearings. This is not the first lawsuit he and his wife Meghan Markle have filed against British newspapers.
Recall that earlier Prince Harry accused the tabloids that Megan had a miscarriage - she was brought to stress.
