Prince Harry settled his privacy invasion lawsuit aganst Rupert Murdoch's U.K. tabloids as his trial was about to begin, his lawyer said Wednesday.
The announcement in London's high Court came despite the Duke of Sussex's vow that he was the one person who could hold the publishers of The Sun and now-defunct News of the World accountable at trial for unlawfully snooping on him, other damous figures, average citizens in the news because of tradedies.
Under English court rules, though, he faced a potentially astronomical legal bill even if he won, and may have ultimately decided, as hundreds of other claimants ahve, that he couldn't risk the cost.
