Just weeks after his speech at BetterUp’s Uplift Summit in San Francisco, CA, Prince Harry made a surprise appearance at London’s Supreme Court on March 27 to attend the first day of a trial against Associated Newspapers Ltd. The Duke of Sussex appeared to be making amends as he smiled and waved to people gathered outside.

According to People, several notable figures, including Elton John and Elizabeth Hurley, have sued the publisher of the Daily Mail and Mail on Sunday for illegal information gathering. The hearing is expected to last four days and will consider legal arguments from both sides, with a judge ultimately deciding whether to take the matter to court. Per People Associated Newspapers argue that the case should be dismissed.

Of course, this isn’t the first time Harry has taken legal action against Associated Newspapers. In July 2022, the Prince won an early victory in his libel lawsuit against the publishing company in relation to a February 20 article published by the Daily Mail about his fight for police protection in the UK.

Harry’s return to London marks his first time in the UK since he and wife Meghan Markle attended Queen Elizabeth II’s funeral in September 2022. While representatives for Harry did not immediately respond to POPSUGAR’s request for comment, according to People, the duke reportedly informed both King Charles III and Prince William that he would be in the UK for the court proceedings.

Charles’s coronation will take place at Westminster Abbey in London on May 6. A spokesperson for the Sussexes revealed to The Times on 4 March that Harry “recently disclosed email correspondence from His Majesty’s office regarding the coronation”. However, it is still unclear whether Harry and Markle plan to attend. “An immediate decision on whether the Duke and Duchess will attend will not be made public by us at this time,” the spokesperson said. May 6 also happens to be Prince Archie’s fourth birthday.
