Prince Harry Receives Apology From UK Tabloid For Unlawful Information Gathering

Prince Harry got an apology from the Mirror Group Newspapers (MGN) for using unlawful methods to gather information about his private life.

The 38-year-old Duke of Sussex is one of four claimants chosen from a larger group of high-profile figures suing the publisher for alleged unlawful information gathering (UIG).

The British publisher of the Daily Mirror apologized for one instance of using unlawful methods to spy on Prince Harry but denied his other claims Wednesday.

“It was a flood of illegality,” Prince Harry‘s attorney David Sherborne said, per the AP. “But worse, this flood was being approved by senior executives, managing editors and members of the board.”

Sherborne said that former editor Piers Morgan was aware of the unlawful hacking, which he has denied.

Mirror Group Newspapers “is now part of a very different company. We are committed to acting with integrity and our objective in this trial is to allow both the business and our journalists to move forward from events that took place many years ago,” the statement read.

“MGN unreservedly apologizes for all such instances of UIG, and assures the claimants that such conduct will never be repeated,” the group said according to court documents.

A new report has emerged about Prince Harry‘s schedule after attending his dad King Charles’ Coronation ceremony.
