Prince Harry Doesn't Want To Be A Prince In Royal Terms, Work But Wants The Advantages: Royal Expert
Prince Harry is not out of visa amid his ongoing lawsuit against Daily Mail, and his case may not be as strong as he thought, according to his biographer.
Royal biographer Angela Levin joined GB News host Nana Akua in the recent episode of the "Royal Round-Up" segment. The pair talked about the royals, including the Duke of Sussex, whom Levin claimed just wanted the royal privileges.
The pair discussed the various issues Prince Harry might bring when returning to the U.K. According to Levin, "The man has got to come in with enough vavavoom." Akua mentioned his visa in America, wondering if it was among the problems, which the "Harry" author clarified wasn't the case.
"He doesn't seem to be out of visa, he's there," Levin said. "Now, this is one of the things where he doesn't want to be a prince in royal terms and work, but yet he wants to have all the advantages."
In the same conversation, Levin weighed in on the Duke of Sussex's case against the Daily Mail and claimed it wasn't as good as the royal assumed.
"He thinks he's done really well, but actually, he hasn't because the judge said that he can't actually mention anything that was leaked beforehand. The problem last time Harry went to court was that he would just say something they expect he'd said it, [and] he expect[s] his lawyers to sort it out. He didn't give the dates, the time, who it was and all that," Levin continued.
The royal commentator added that this time, the judge clarified to Prince Harry that he couldn't just use any information from someone else. Also, The Mail group reportedly felt that the lawsuit was "at least six years too late."
Prince Harry sued Associated Newspapers, the publisher of the Daily Mail and the Mail on Sunday, for alleged unlawful information gathering from 1993 to 2018. He also claimed that the publication paid private investigators to unlawfully obtain and "even commissioning the breaking and entry into private property." Daily Mail vehemently denied the allegation, per Reuters.
Meghan Markle's husband also sued News Groups Newspapers (NGN), publisher of The Sun and the now-defunct News of the World, for alleged phone hacking and other unlawful activities used to write stories about him. However, in July, the High Court ruled that he couldn't sue NGN as he should have brought the case sooner. Claimants must launch a case within six years, and the judge said there was "no doubt" Prince Harry was aware of the issue as early as 2012 that his phone had been hacked, according to Daily Mail.
