- Harry wins big in phone hacking scandal
- He reacts to lawsuit win
- The Duke remains committed to upholding media integrity
Prince Harry (39), the Duke of Sussex, has emerged victorious in a sensational lawsuit against a notorious UK newspaper publisher, 'Mirror Group Newspapers' (MGN), over allegations of phone hacking and other illicit acts. The royal heartthrob, who couldn't grace London's High Court with his presence "due to the short notice," according to his lawyer David Sherbourne, made his voice heard through a fiery statement that Sherborne delivered outside the courthouse.
Duke's defiance: unmasking systemic unlawfulness in media
In a scathing rebuke, Harry declared, “This case is not just about hacking. It is about a systemic practice of unlawful and appalling behavior!" The Duke's passionate words echoed off the courthouse walls, signaling a crusade against what he calls "vendetta journalism."
The legal drama unfolded with Justice Fancourt's bombshell ruling that confirmed 15 out of 33 articles were tainted by phone hacking or other illegal snooping. The Duke's relentless pursuit of justice, nearly five years in the making, has been marred by "defamatory stories and intimidating tactics," but Harry stands undeterred, his resolve steeled by the ordeal.

Dragon slayer's triumph
The 'Mirror Group,' caught in the eye of the storm, extended an unreserved apology for past transgressions and expressed relief at the judgment that allows them to leave the dark chapters behind. But for Harry, the fight for a "free and honest press" is far from over. He calls upon authorities to wield the sword of justice against those who have flouted the law.
As Harry's legal saga continues with three more cases against UK publishers, the Duke's quest for media integrity rages on. With today's victory, Harry sends a clear message: he's not just a prince; he's a dragon slayer in the world of press accountability.
