William event may have been target of Mail publisher blagging, Harry's lawyer says

Prince Harry's lawyer suggests that Prince William and Catherine may have been targeted by private investigators working for the Daily Mail's publisher, as part of Harry's privacy case against Associated Newspapers Limited (ANL). Allegations include unlawful information gathering, phone-hacking, and blagging to obtain details about events like Prince William's 21st birthday party. The court is discussing which allegations will be included in the trial set for early 2026, involving public figures like Sir Elton John, Baroness Doreen Lawrence, and Elizabeth Hurley. The hearing also involves arguments to dismiss parts of the claim related to unlawful information gathering by other newspaper groups.
