Prince Harry is set to appear in London’s High Court on Monday as his privacy case against the publisher of U.K. tabloid Daily Mail kicks off.
The royal is one of several big names — including Elton John, Elizabeth Hurley and Sadie Frost — that are taking on Associated Newspapers Limited, alleging that the company engaged in illegal activities like hiring private investigators to place listening devices inside cars. Associated Newspapers has denied the allegations, according to BBC News, calling them “preposterous.”
Harry is expected to deliver his evidence in court on Thursday, and the trial could last up to nine weeks. It’s his third time taking a major newspaper group to court, having previously sued The Sun owner News Group Newspapers, which settled before trial, as well as The Mirror Group, a case in which he won £140,600 in damages.
