Harry Loses Bitter Court Battle as Piers Exposes Meghan’s Involvement in Illegal News
A high-stakes court trial involving a tabloid newspaper publisher is set to commence, with the Duke of Sussex expected to take the witness stand.
This case is not just about one individual; it represents the thousands of others who have been affected by alleged widespread criminal activities at the newspaper over the past decade.
What makes this trial even more significant is the ongoing feud between Prince Harry and media personality Piers Morgan, who served as editor of the Mirror during part of that period.
Our team of journalists has uncovered substantial evidence pointing to illegal news gathering practices at the Mirror, including during Piers Morgan's tenure.
However, the appearance of Piers as a witness may tilt the balance in favor of Prince Harry.
Interestingly, before Meghan and Harry tied the knot, Piers was actually a close friend of Meghan's, and it is highly likely that she provided him with information for tabloid stories.
According to Morgan, his connection with Meghan began in 2015 when he followed her on Twitter after watching some episodes of the TV show “Suits” in which she starred.
To his surprise, Meghan messaged him just five minutes later, expressing her gratitude for the follow.
Morgan finds it ironic given the current circumstances, stating, “She watched me on CNN, liked me, blah, blah, blah, whatever.”
Their initial exchange of messages was light-hearted, and Meghan even requested a meeting with him when she visited England in 2016.
However, after putting her in a cab to attend a dinner in Mayfair, Morgan never heard from her again.
The feud between Prince Harry and Piers Morgan has a long history, dating back to Harry's childhood.
It intensified when Harry began his relationship with Meghan Markle around five years ago.
Their ongoing conflict has generated numerous headlines and viral moments, with one of the most memorable being Piers Morgan storming off the set of Good Morning Britain during a discussion about Meghan Markle.
Apart from Prince Harry, several other high-profile individuals have brought claims against Mirror Group newspapers for alleged unlawful information gathering.
These representative claimants were selected as test cases to go to trial, and among them are former Coronation Street actress Nikki Sanderson, comedian Paul Whitenhouse's ex-wife Fiona Whiteman, and actor Michael Turner.
MGN, the publisher, is contesting these claims, arguing that some have been filed too late.
Last month, lawyers representing the claimants announced that all witnesses on their side would provide evidence in person.
This means that Prince Harry, expected to testify in June, will make a second appearance at the High Court this year.
The outcome of this trial will have far-reaching implications, not only for the individuals involved but also for the wider media landscape and the public's perception of journalistic practices.
