Prince Harry showed his support for actress Elizabeth Hurley in their battle against Associated Newspapers.
The Duke of Sussex, 41, was seen at the High Court in London on Thursday, January 22, as Hurley, 60, gave her testimony. The actress’s son, Damian Hurley, was also seen supporting his mother.
According to Reuters, Harry was seen comforting Damian and “supportively patting his back” when Hurley became emotional.

The former royal and Hurley are part of a larger group of celebrities — which includes Elton John and his husband, David Furnish, as well as Jude Law’s ex-wife, Sadie Frost — suing the publishers of Daily Mail for “brutal invasion of privacy.”
The Austin Powers actress accused the company of “listening to all [her] conversations” through tapped phones and microphones planted to windows of her house.
“It was deeply hurtful,” she said, calling it a “traumatic time.”
Harry’s appearance comes just one day after he took the stand himself, giving testimony against the publishing company.

“I wasn’t allowed to complain,” he said on Wednesday, January 21, explaining that the Royal family had a rule of “never complain and never explain.”
“By standing up here and taking a stand against them, this has continued to come after me,” he added. “And they have made my wife’s life an absolute misery, my Lord.”
