Prince Harry to Pay Over $60K in Legal Fees to Daily Mail Following Failed Court Challenge

Prince Harry has been ordered by a judge to pay over $60,000 in legal fees to the publisher of the Daily Mail tabloid following his failed court challenge in a libel lawsuit. The Duke of Sussex is suing Associated Newspapers Ltd. over an article that claimed he tried to hide his efforts to retain publicly funded protection in the UK after leaving his royal role. The judge ruled that the publisher has a "real prospect" of showing that statements issued on Harry's behalf were misleading and that the article reflected an "honest opinion." A libel trial is scheduled to take place between May 17 and July 31.
