According to Harry, “members of the royal family struck a secret deal with newspapers not to sue them over phone hacking because it would open a can of worms.”

The comments were revealed to be in documents filed to the high court wherein he claimed that, “there was a private arrangement between the royal family, which he calls “the Institution”, and Rupert Murdoch’s News Group Newspapers (NGN), which publishes the Sun,” according to The Guardian.

Furthermore Harry claimed: “There was in place an agreement between the Institution and NGN that we would not engage, or even discuss, the possibility of bringing claims against NGN until the litigation against it relating to phone hacking was over.

The Institution made it clear that we did not need to know anything about phone hacking and it was made clear to me that the royal family did not sit in the witness box because that could open up a can of worms.”

Harry brought even more attention to Laura by saying, “It led to Laura’s parents being doorstepped which they were understandably not pleased about. This sort of thing caused me to try and keep matters as private as I could to avoid this happening.” It blows the mind how Harry so ably speaks out of four sides of his mouth on two faces.
