LONDON, Feb 9, 2024 (BSS/AFP) - Prince Harry on Friday settled a long-running legal claim of phone hacking by tabloid journalists from the Mirror Group Newspapers (MGN), nearly two months after a UK judge ruled in his favour in part of the case.

Following a court hearing, Harry's lawyer said MGN will pay the prince "a substantial additional sum by way of damages" as well as his legal costs, after the judge in December awarded him o140,600 ($179,600) in damages.
