Harry was defended from online critics of his phone-hacking lawsuit heard in London this week, by a member of his mother's family.

Caroline Flack “knew her phone was being hacked” at the time she was seeing Prince Harry, the late TV presenter’s mother has claimed, echoing allegations made by the Duke of Sussex at the High Court.

Prince Harry ended his testimony in his trial against a newspaper group. “For my whole life, the press have misled about me and covered up their wrongdoing,” he said.

Prince Harry entered the courtroom on a mission to prove the publisher of the Daily Mirror tabloid hacked his phone and unlawfully snooped.

Though Harry’s phone hacking case against the British press is bringing us back to the royal’s school days, there is plenty of reason to believe that addressing decade-old loose ends can make change today.

Prince Harry becomes the first royal in modern times to face cross-examination in court.
