Prince William settled a phone-hacking claim against Rupert Murdoch's UK newspaper group in 2020 for a"very large sum", lawyers for Prince Harry have said in court documents.
Harry is suing News Group Newspapers at the High Court in London for unlawful acts allegedly committed on behalf of The Sun and now defunct News of the World newspapers from the mid-1990s until 2016. He has accused people acting for the papers of phone-hacking and obtaining private information about him through deception.
NGN, which has paid out millions after a number of journalists at the News of the World were jailed for phone-hacking, is seeking to have the claim dismissed.In a submission on the Duke of Sussex' s behalf, his lawyers said a secret deal had been reached between NGN and the"institution" - Buckingham Palace - to hold off any claims until other phone-hacking litigation was settled.
The document states:"It is important to bear in mind that in responding to this bid by NGN to prevent his claims going to trial, the claimant has had to make public the details of this secret agreement, as well as the fact that his brother, His Royal Highness, Prince William, has recently settled his claim against NGN behind the scenes."
