Daily Mirror and Express publisher Reach today put aside another £6 million to cover phone hacking claims and warned that the amount it is likely to pay to victims could grow even further.
Reach has faced claims from a number of public figures from Elizabeth Hurley to Kevin Keegan regarding the hacking of voicemail services since 2015. Initially, the Mirror Group, as it was known then, set aside just £4 million to deal with claims, but as more and more celebrities demanded compensation, the total kept growing.
