Prince Harry ‘launched hacking claim to stop abuse’ of Meghan Markle, High Court hears
Harry said: "I didn't go to them, I bumped into Mr Sherborne in France. It's in my book."Mr Green asked if, before he spoke to lawyers, he had concerns over any particular articles being the result of unlawful activity.Harry said: "No, I was never shown anything. It was all contained within the palace." He added that even if he had been shown anything, he "would not have been allowed" to make a complaint.
Harry replied: "I think that is a question for my legal team. There is hard evidence to suggest an incredible amount of suspiciousness and I believe that burner phones were used extensively." Harry told the court he believed there was ‘industrial scale destruction of evidence’ of unlawful information gathering in relation to him.Mr Green asked Prince Harry whether he thought his phone was “consistently hacked” throughout the 15-year period between 1996 and 2011, the time period that makes up the claim against MGN.Asked if he was aware of any evidence to show this, Harry says: “No, that’s part of the reason I’m here, my lord”.
The Prince is represented by barrister to the stars David Sherborne, who recently emerged victorious from the Wagatha Christie High Court battle where he was Coleen Rooney’s lead counsel.Harry made a string of bombshell comments in his first day of testimony yesterday, saying he was suffering intrusion into his life from the age of 11 and that media intrusion into his life cost him personal relationships.
