Amidst the entire car chase fiasco of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle that has enveloped the royal headlines, is another controversy crawling in. Before the New York incident even existed, Prince Harry’s legal battle with the Murdoch Papers was hitting the bars. There have been thus further developments to the story. Back in the previous month, the Duke stood at the witness box to claim he has got potential evidence that could call out the publications and their unlawful activities publically. However, that seems to have backfired on the Duke.

The supposed evidence that he presented in the high court was reportedly not enough to sue entire publications in a legal case. Meanwhile, the situation seems to have worsened as the defendant has got some stirring proof against the plaintiff, Prince Harry.

As reported by the Independent, the Mirror group of newspapers had the backstories of the Duke and her personal life “obtained legally. This came as a former journalist and a news report took the high court to testify against the Duke. As the battle between the angry Prince and the MGN continues, new revelations continue to unfold now and then. The board has denied the Duke’s claims, stating, “there is no evidence or not sufficient evidence of voicemail perception” in any of the claims. 

The article that went up in the court case revolved around Prince Harry and one of his former conquests, Chelsy Davy. The Duke had sued the newspaper agency for illicit information gathering and phone hacking. However, Mr. Harwood, the journalist, expressed in a witness statement that he had no idea of them.
