Prince Harry arrived at the Royal Courts of Justice on Tuesday morning with a brief smile that broke through the tension as supporters lined the pavement shouting messages of affection just after 9am.
Well-wishers cheered him on with one shouting: “Harry, I love you!” and another cried, “Good luck, prince!”
The Duke of Sussex will not take the witness stand today. Instead, he returned to court to hear his legal team continue to outline the case, with his barrister, David Sherborne, resuming opening arguments from the previous day.
Addressing the court, Sherborne turned his focus to Harry’s claim, arguing that few figures held more fascination for the tabloid press than the king’s youngest son.
According to him, stories about Prince Harry’s private world were treated like commercial gold, relentlessly pursued because they boosted sales.
Barrister claims tabloids chased him as a cash cow and ignored risks.
He told the judge that this obsession went beyond the headlines, claiming his movements were closely monitored, a practice he warned posed serious security concerns.
The Duke is one of seven high-profile claimants taking part in the case, joined by Sir Elton John, David Furnish, Baroness Doreen Lawrence, Sadie Frost, Elizabeth Hurley and former MP Sir Simon Hughes.
