In the dispute with the British tabloids, Prince Harry has accused the publishing company of the "Mail on Sunday" again with incorrect reporting and inadequate apologies.

"All allegations are false," said the Duke of Sussex's attorney Jenny Afia in a virtual hearing in a London court on Monday.

The publisher also accepted this.

However, the article in which the newspaper had written about Harry's allegedly severed relationship with the royal navy in the fall remained on the Internet for weeks.

Later apologies did not appear prominently in the newspaper and on the website, the lawyer said.

Originally, Prince Harry had charged the publisher with defamation.

As reported by The Guardian, it was specifically about two articles published in October alleging that the Duke of Sussex had snubbed the Royal Marines and had not contacted them since his last appearance as an honorary marine in March.

"Informed sources" were cited.

Even before the settlement on which both parties agreed, the "Mail on Sunday" published an apology on December 27th.

In this, however, according to Prince Harry's lawyer, a formulation was used "which clearly downplayed the gravity of the allegations made against him" and "did not expressly acknowledge that the allegations were false".

The newspaper also falsely claimed that, as part of its apology, it made a charitable donation to the Invictus Games Foundation, of which Prince Harry is the patron and which has been hosting a Paralympic sporting event for war disabled soldiers since 2014.

Instead, Prince Harry himself donated the considerable damages he had received, as reported by "The Sun".

Harry's wife Meghan is also suing the publisher

The statement by Prince Harry's lawyer on Monday morning marks the end of the dispute, however, as Harry (36) will no longer take legal action against the publisher.

The dispute between his wife Meghan (39) and the same publisher continues.

Meghan had sued the newspaper because it had quoted from a personal letter to her father.

Her attorneys are currently trying to get the case closed in a snap to avoid a royal mud fight in court.

With the “Megxit” Harry and Meghan said goodbye to their royal duties from the royal family last year.

Harry also laid down his military honors at the same time, but always emphasized that he wanted to remain closely associated with the military.

The couple now lives in California with their son Archie (1).
