Despite recently dropping a legal case against the Daily Mail's publisher following an unfavorable pre-trial ruling, Harry's pursuit of justice continues. The recent hearing focused on legal fees for a trial where Harry was one of four claimants, including Coronation Street cast members. While the judge acknowledged the violation of privacy for all four claimants, some cases were dismissed due to being filed too late.
Prince Harry's Barrister, David Sherborne, argued for substantial reimbursement, emphasizing the overwhelming success of his client's case. MGN's lawyer, Roger Malalio, countered that their client should only cover legal fees for the portions of the claims it lost. Justice Timothy Fancourt deferred his ruling to a later date.
With allegations of privacy invasion in over 148 articles, Sherborne proposed scheduling a trial to address the remaining 115 articles. MGN disclosed in court papers that a settlement offer had been extended to Prince Harry, details of which remain undisclosed.
Criticism from some fans has surfaced, with accusations of delusion and jealousy toward Prince William, who was awarded a million pounds in damages, donated to Harry's charity. Some contend that Harry's legal pursuit stems from financial constraints, suggesting that his lawyers are attempting to secure fees through any available means.
As opinions on social media unfold, a segment of the public expresses disappointment in Harry's legal battles, asserting that he and Meghan should not expect special treatment and should be held accountable for their actions. The ongoing legal proceedings continue to be a topic of scrutiny and debate among followers of the royal family.
