One of the stories that is allegedly based on illegally gathered information was written by the News of the World reporter Gary Jones, who is now the editor of the Daily Express.

The messages were said to include Hoare asking Diana whether her children were staying with their grandparents and questioning whether William and Harry were excited to meet members of Take That.

Harry has made clear that he blames the tabloid media for the death of his mother while being chased by paparazzi through Paris. On Tuesday, the high court heard his claim that press intrusion by the Sun and other newspapers led to her choosing to travel without a police escort in order to avoid leaks, ultimately leading to her death in 1997.

Harry previously told the court that he was personally the victim of widespread phone hacking and illegal activity by the Sun and News of the World, while claiming there was a secret deal between the royal household to keep such deals out of court.
