The publishing company’s attorneys will cross-examine the Duke of Sussex in High Court.
While Prince Harry is in court, Kate Middleton stops by an early childhood center.
On Tuesday morning, the Princess of Wales visited the Windsor Family Hub to hear more about how the facility serves families in the local area.
The Windsor Family Hub, which provides support services for parents, caregivers, and kids of all ages in the Royal Borough of Windsor and Maidenhead, is not far from Adelaide Cottage, where Kate resides with Prince William and their three children.
The program is run by the nonprofit organization Achieving for Children and strives to provide specialized assistance to strengthen family resilience and stop problems from getting worse.
Princess Kate, 41, spent time with a number of organizations that focus on the early years because it is an important part of her public work. The royal mother met with parents attending a baby massage course, a health visitor session, and a stress management class.
Additionally, she met the personnel who provide the services and heard from parents about how the Windsor Family Hub has impacted their lives.
The Duke of Sussex Issues Witness Statement
“I genuinely feel that in every relationship that I’ve ever had — be that with friends, girlfriends, with family or with the army, there’s always been a third party involved, namely the tabloid press,” Prince Harry told the court said in the witness statement.
“Having seen me grow up from a baby (being born into this ‘contractual relationship’ without any choice) and scrutinised my every move, the tabloids have known the challenges and mental health struggles that I have had to deal with throughout my childhood and adult life and for them to then play on that and use it to their own advantage, I think is, well, criminal.”
Harry was greeted by his attorney as he arrived at the High Court’s Rolls Building.
According to a previous report by The Independent, Harry is one of four “representative” claimants who were selected as “test cases” from a larger group of prominent people who are suing the publisher. The three plaintiffs picked for trial are actress Nikki Sanderson, actor Michael Turner and Fiona Wightman, ex-wife of comedian Paul Whitehouse.
Over 100 people are suing MGN for alleged illegal activity between 1991 and 2022, Reuters reported. According to the claimants’ attorneys, senior editors and executives at MGN knew about and approved of such behavior. The newspaper organization has refuted the charges and claimed that some of the allegations were made too late.
