Video: Prince Harry Says Battling Tabloids Was ‘Central Piece’ to Family Rift

“To what extent do you think that your determination to fight the tabloids destroyed the relationship with your family?” “I think there’s — that’s certainly a central piece to it. But they — that’s a hard question to answer because anything I say about my family results in a torrent of abuse from the press. I’ve made it very clear that this is something that needs to be done. It would be nice if we did it as a family. I believe that, again, from a service standpoint, and when you’re in a public role, that these are the things that we should be doing for the greater good. But, I’m doing this, I’m doing this for my reasons.” “When you got the judge’s ruling that you had been hacked, what was your reaction?” “To go in there and come out and have the judge rule in our favor was obviously huge. But for him to go as far as he did with regard to this wasn’t just the individual people. This went right up to the top. This was lawyers, this was high executives. And to be able to achieve that in a trial, that’s a monumental victory.”
