The Duke of Sussex and six other household names will have to pay more than £9.5 million to the Daily Mail’s publisher in the first round of legal costs after losing their High Court claims, which were described by the judge as “speculative and substantially inferential”.
The high-profile figures, also including Baroness Doreen Lawrence and Sir Elton John, sued Associated Newspapers Limited (ANL) over allegations of unlawful information-gathering.
ANL strongly denied the claims, which were heard at an 11-week trial in London earlier this year, with judge Mr Justice Nicklin dismissing all the cases in a judgment on July 7.
