Prince Harry's Legal Battles with Tabloids and Familial Rift
Prince Harry discusses how his legal battles with Britain's tabloid press have strained his relationship with the royal family. He is suing News Group Newspapers and the Daily Mail for unlawful activities. He also blames the media for Princess Diana's death and hostile attacks on his wife Meghan.
Prince Harry revealed in a new documentary that his ongoing legal battles with Britain's tabloid press have played a significant role in the deterioration of his relationship with the royal family. Speaking to ITV for the documentary 'Tabloids on Trial,' Harry described this issue as a 'central piece' of the conflict.
Currently, Harry is suing Rupert Murdoch's UK newspaper arm, News Group Newspapers (NGN), and the publisher of the Daily Mail, accusing them of engaging in unlawful activities over several years. Both publishers deny the allegations and are fighting the lawsuits, which Harry describes as his 'mission.'
Harry has reiterated that his legal battles are both a public service and a personal mission. He also holds the British media accountable for his mother Princess Diana's death and accuses them of launching hostile and racist attacks on his wife Meghan, which contributed to their decision to leave royal duties and relocate to California.
