From his witness statement about struggling under media scrutiny, to the gruelling cross-examination over the royal's past.

If you read Spare, Prince Harry’s tell-all memoir that was published in January, you already know that the younger son of the king of England has a, shall we say, contentious relationship with the tabloid press.

As part of his mission to rein in the tabloid media, Harry is testifying and being cross-examined over at least two days in his suit against the Daily Mirror.

Prince Harry appeared to backtrack over a "disagreement" with Prince William under searing cross-examination in his tabloid phone hacking lawsuit.

LONDON — Prince Harry is taking his battle with the media to a historic new stage, becoming the first high-ranking member of the British royal family in 130 years to appear as a witness in court.

What Prince Harry said, both during cross-examination in the witness box Tuesday and in his written witness statement, was just as unusual. By turns defensive, frank and accusatory, his testimony shone a light on life as a royal and on Harry’s bitter personal feud with the press.

Harry explained how the brothers took opposing views on how to handle their late mother's butler who was indiscreet about her personal life.
