Royal Family News says that things might have gotten pretty emotional. That’s because there’s a new report that suggests Prince Harry might have choked up in court after almost eight hours of questioning in his court case against the Mirror Group Newspapers.
In fact, sources say that the Duke of Sussex let out a deep sign before sitting down with his legal team after spending eight hours on the witness stand. Keep reading below for everything you need to know.
Did Prince Harry Cry In Court?
Prince Harry certainly did not hold back his feelings when it came to the British press supposedly invading his privacy and hacking his phone when he was still in a relationship with his ex-girlfriend Chelsea Davy.
At one point, his lawyer, David Sherborne, said, “Prince Harry, you have been in that witness box for over a day-and-a-half. You have had to go through these articles and answer questions knowing this is a very public courtroom and the world’s media are watching. How has that made you feel?”
The Duke of Sussex replied with, “Erm, it’s a lot.” Prince Harry went on to suggest that about 140 articles between the years of 1996 and 2010 by The Daily Mirror, Sunday mirror and Sunday People contained information that was gathered illegally.
Harry pretty much suggests that he was exploited by the British media.
What’s Next For Prince Harry?
If that weren’t enough, Harry also bloated The Daily Mirror’s former editor, Piers Morgan, for using intimidation tactics to keep him quiet.
He said, “Unfortunately, as a consequence of me bringing my Mirror Group claim, both myself and my wife have been subjected to a barrage of horrific personal attacks and intimidation from Piers Morgan, who was the Editor of the Daily Mirror between 1995 and 2004, presumably in retaliation and in the hope that I will back down, before being able to hold him properly accountable for his unlawful activity towards both me and my mother during his editorship.”
Buckingham Palace has not made any comments about the matter. But seeing how Harry is not a full-time working royal, it’s doubtful that they will.
