Prince Harry claims he and ex Chelsy Davy 'lost friends' over alleged phone hacking

Prince Harry has claimed that stories about him in the tabloids led to feelings of "depression and paranoia" as he made a number of serious allegations against a news organisation.

The Duke of Sussex is suing publisher News Group Newspapers (NGN) over allegations of hacking, claiming that private information about him was gathered unlawfully by The Sun and the News Of The World between 1994 and 2016. While NGN has settled numerous hacking claims in relation to the News Of The World, the publisher denies illegal activity at The Sun.

Speaking of his relationship with ex Chelsy Davy, Harry said in his witness statement to the court: "We were never on our own and able to enjoy each other’s company away from the prying eyes of the tabloids. This put a huge amount of unnecessary stress and strain on our relationship."
