Prince Harry was suing News Group Newspapers over alleged unlawful activities carried out by journalists and private investigators working for its papers, The Sun and the now defunct News of the World,

News Group Newspapers offered an “unequivocal apology” to the prince for serious intrusion into his private life, as well as that of his mother, Diana, Princess of Wales.

Murdoch’s U.K.-based publisher of The Sun tabloid, News Group Newspapers, has agreed to pay “substantial damages” to settle Harry’s legal claim.

Prince Harry snagged a historic win in his lawsuit against Rupert Murdoch ’s U.K. tabloids, receiving an unprecedented apology from the company for the intrusion and breach of privacy of the royal's life.

Prince Harry settled his lawsuit against Rupert Murdoch's News Group Newspapers (NGN) over alleged unlawful information gathering, his lawyer said on Wednesday.

Prince Harry has settled with Rupert Murdoch's NGN and received an apology over The Sun and News of the World claims.

Prince Harry claimed victory in his long-running legal battle against Rupert Murdoch's British newspaper group, after reaching a deal to settle his lawsuit which included an apology for unlawful actions relating to the Sun for the first time.

Prince Harry's privacy invasion lawsuit against Rupert Murdoch's News Group Newspapers came to a sudden end on Wednesday before the trial even got underway, with the U.K. tabloid publisher offering both a settlement and an apology.

Harry had vowed to take his case to trial to publicly expose the newspaper’s wrongdoing and win a court ruling upholding his claims.

Diana, Princess of Wales, would be “rightly proud” of the Duke of Sussex after he settled his High Court case with the publishers of The Sun, her brother has said. On Wednesday, Prince Harry secured an “ unequivocal apology ” from Rupert Murdoch’s News Group Newspapers (NGN) for both himself and his late mother, Princess Diana.

While few people have received an apology from a Murdoch-owned publication, Prince Harry now has. But if you think this is the end of the long legal saga, you may well be wrong.
