US EditionRuling in Prince Harry case against Daily Mail will take some time, UK judge says
The claimants seek substantial damages after alleging a 20-year pattern of unlawful newsgathering, while the publisher says the stories came from legitimate sources.
- On Tuesday, March 31, personal Facebook messages between Prince Harry and Mail on Sunday reporter Charlotte Griffiths were disclosed in London's High Court during his ongoing privacy lawsuit against Associated Newspapers Limited.
- The newly released messages, dating from 2011 to 2012, appear to contradict Harry's January testimony where he claimed he met Griffiths only once and severed contact immediately upon learning she was a journalist.
- Exchanges show the Duke of Sussex calling the reporter "sugar" and joking about "movie snuggles," while Griffiths referred to him as "H Bomb" and "Mr Mischief" in their correspondence.
- Closing arguments concluded on Tuesday in the 11-week trial, with barristers submitting nearly 392,000 words of written submissions to Justice Matthew Nicklin, who will deliver his ruling at a later date.
- Following the disclosure, the Duke appeared at an International Association of Privacy Professionals conference in Washington, D.C., urging leaders to prioritize "responsibility and better alignment between business models and human outcomes" regarding artificial intelligence.
