Prince Harry lost his privacy case against Associated Newspapers, publisher of the Daily Mail, at London's High Court. The case rested on the claim that the newspaper had unlawfully gathered private information.

An Associated Newspapers spokesperson called the ruling an overwhelming victory for the Daily Mail and its journalists, and said it vindicated the paper's journalism. There was no immediate statement from Prince Harry on the decision.

The case was seen as part of Prince Harry's broader legal campaign against sections of the British press. Lawyers are assessing whether the ruling will be appealed and what its wider implications may be.
