Prince William settled a phone-hacking claim against Rupert Murdoch's UK newspaper arm in 2020 for a 'very large sum' after a secret deal struck with Buckingham Palace, lawyers for the heir's brother Prince Harry said in court documents

LONDON, April 25 - Britain's Prince William settled a phone-hacking claim against Rupert Murdoch's UK newspaper arm in 2020 for a "very large sum" after a secret deal struck with Buckingham Palace, lawyers for the heir's brother Prince Harry said in court documents.

He accuses those acting for the papers of phone-hacking and obtaining private information about him by deception, including getting hold of his wife Meghan's social security number. In a submission on his behalf, Harry's legal team said a deal had been agreed between NGN and the "institution" - Buckingham Palace - to hold off any claims until other outstanding phone-hacking litigation was settled.
