Prince Harry and six others ordered to pay initial £9.5m to Daily Mail publisher
The judge said the claimants failed to prove unlawful information gathering, and the publisher’s costs total about £34.5 million.
- On Friday, a High Court judge ordered Prince Harry and six other claimants to pay an initial £9.5 million to Associated Newspapers Limited by August 28, 2026, following dismissal of their invasion-of-privacy lawsuit.
- Mr Justice Matthew Nicklin dismissed the case last month after an 11-week trial, ruling the allegations were "speculative and substantially inferential" and "lacked a proper evidential foundation."
- Facing a potential £34 million total liability, the claimants are personally responsible for remaining millions because their legal insurance covers only £16.2 million.
- ANL characterized the ruling as "a devastating critique of an attempt to destroy a newspaper and the reputations of its journalists, editors and executives."
- Harry and Meghan Markle will relocate from the United States to the United Kingdom later this month, following the public announcement made Wednesday.
