Tominey initiated the discussion by drawing comparisons between Prince Harry and his brother, Prince William. She pointed out that other victims of phone hacking, including Prince William, have opted for out-of-court settlements, questioning the wisdom of Harry airing more private matters in public. Particularly noteworthy is the fact that these revelations seem to generate additional headlines for the very newspapers that Harry is attempting to hold accountable.
Tominey further highlighted the potential charge of invading others' privacy for personal gain, drawing parallels with Harry's previous autobiography, "Spare." By delving into the intimate details of his relationships with loved ones, Harry may be seen as exploiting their privacy for his own benefit.
While a legal victory against the Home Office might secure armed bodyguards for Harry's future visits to the UK, the prospects of a warm reception from the royal family appear to be diminishing with each revelation made in court. Ultimately, this victory could be viewed as a hollow triumph, overshadowed by the strained relations within the royal household.
