Prince Harry choked up while in court discussing his lawsuit against Mirror Group Newspapers in London Court.
The Duke is suing them for hacking his phone and using illicit methods to gather information on him between 1996 and 2009.
He was on the stand for about eight hours and later responded to questions by his lawyer explaining that “it is a lot.”
He continued on, “For my whole life, the press misled me, covered up the wrongdoing, and sitting here in court knowing that the evidence in front of them and for Mr. Green to suggest I’m speculating… I’m not sure what to say about that.”
Andrew Green Kc, who is the barrister for the Mirror Group Newspapers, questioned the Duke during court on Tuesday. He has been known to be a “beast in court.”
During the trial, he asked Harry many questions based on specific information about his phone being hacked.

A former Coronation Street actress has received an apology from Mirror Group Newspapers (Mgn) in the same phone-hacking trial as Prince Harry, coming a day after Piers Morgan was accused of “injecting” information into stories.
The Daily Mirror publisher’s barrister said today that it “unequivocally apologizes” to Nikki Sanderson, having admitted that it used private investigators to obtain stories about her. Sanderson alleges the newspapers used information from her mobile phone voicemails which were hacked, and paid private investigators to get personal information about her.
Sanderson is claiming damages for 37 articles published in the Daily Mirror, Sunday Mirror and People newspapers between 1999 and 2009. Mgn admitted that on four occasions journalists used investigators to target the actor on one of the UK’s most-watched soaps, which she joined when she was just 15.
Sanderson was reported by the BBC to have described her experience as “abuse,” a word she said she didn’t use lightly.
