Prince Harry's gamble pays off after Duke of Sussex risked losing millions

The Duke of Sussex and Lord Tom Watson pushed NGN further than anyone had done before and were prepared to take on the media group in an eight-week trial.

He was further prohibited from pursuing claims against Rupert Murdoch himself, whom he accused of making a “secret deal” with senior royals.
