Prince Harry is emotionally recalling the British tabloid the Daily Mail making his wife Duchess Meghan's life "an absolute misery."
The Duke of Sussex spoke as a witness in his privacy lawsuit against the Daily Mail and Mail on Sunday's publisher, Associated Newspapers, as he and six others, including Elton John and Elizabeth Hurley, have accused the publisher of violating their privacy by bugging homes and using other illegal information-gathering tactics as early as the 1990s.
Discussing his fight against intrusion from the British press, Harry, 41, decried having to go through the trial. The lawsuit, among several Harry has levied against media outlets, was first filed in 2022.
"I think it is fundamentally wrong to have to put all of us through this again when all we were asking for is an apology and some accountability," he said. "It is a horrible experience, and the worst of it is that by sitting up here and taking a stand against them … they continue to come after me."
Harry added, choking up, "They have made my wife's life an absolute misery."
