"Phone Hacking Scandal: Prince Harry's Landline Calls Bugged, Murdoch Papers Accused of Cover-Up"
TL;DR
Prince Harry's legal team alleges that Rupert Murdoch's British tabloid papers bugged his landline phones, accessed Princess Diana's pager messages, and ordered private investigators to target his then-girlfriend, Meghan. They seek to amend his lawsuit to include these new allegations, which News Group Newspapers (NGN) is objecting to, claiming they were made too late and lack evidence. NGN has settled over 1,300 claims of phone-hacking but denies any wrongdoing by its staff. Harry, who has been battling the British press since stepping down from royal duties, won a lawsuit against Mirror Group Newspaper in December over similar allegations.
