Prince Harry says he was was subject of ‘incredibly invasive articles’ as a child during evidence in Mirror Group hacking trial – live

The Duke of Sussex has arrived at the High Court to give evidence in his case against the Daily Mirror’s publisher over alleged unlawful information gathering.

Prince Harry arrived in a black Range Rover, which pulled in quickly outside the Rolls Building in central London. Dressed in a dark suit, the duke walked straight into the court, passing the pack of photographers and other media waiting outside.

On Monday, Harry’s individual case against Mirror Group Newspapers (MGN) got under way.

He is suing the publisher, claiming journalists at its titles – which also include the Sunday Mirror and Sunday People – were linked to methods including phone hacking, so-called “blagging” or gaining information by deception, and use of private investigators for unlawful activities.

His barrister David Sherborne claimed the duke was subjected to unlawful information-gathering activity “right from when he was a young boy at school” into adulthood, adding: “Nothing was sacrosanct or out of bounds.”

Andrew Green KC, acting for MGN, said there was no evidence that hacking of Harry’s phone took place. “Zilch, zero, nil, de nada, niente, nothing,” he said.
