About this listen
After Prince Harry gave evidence against the publisher of the Daily Mail, Charlene White is joined by Royal Editor Chris Ship, Royal Expert Lizzie Robinson, and Royal Commentator Afua Hagan to unpack what we've learnt and what might come next.
Chris was in court as Prince Harry became almost overwhelmed with emotion, fighting back tears as he described how the press had made his wife's life "an absolute misery".
Harry is one of seven claimants bringing this group action against the Daily Mail's Publisher Associated Newspapers Ltd (ANL), including Elton John, Liz Hurley and Baroness Doreen Lawrence, the mother of the murdered teenager Stephen Lawrence.
They all claim ANL had written articles based on information, which was gathered unlawfully, like phone hacking, phone tapping and blagging.
Associated Newspapers Limited denies the claims of wrongdoing and says the articles were based on 'legitimate sources' and 'carefully curated contacts'.
The team explain why Prince Harry has chosen to fight the case now, why it's different from his previous legal battles with the press, and what happens if he wins.
Also this week on Talking Royals: Where is Meghan? The Duchess of Sussex was not in the UK with Harry - indeed, the Prince has always said he would not bring his family back to Britain without his full personal security being reinstated. Now the pair are off to Sundance Film Festival, where they executive produced a documentary about Girl Scouts selling cookies.
Plus, what's going on with Princess Eugenie and her father Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor? Reports suggest Eugenie has cut off all contact with him following a series of allegations relating to his relationship with Jeffrey Epstein - allegations he strongly denies.
Meanwhile, the Prince and Princess of Wales were up in Scotland where they tried their hands at curling - and Kate managed to style out a precarious moment where she lost her balance on the ice!
And, hot on the heels of a popular online trend: What was the Royal Family doing in 2016? We take a look back at the best photos of the year - from Harry and Meghan's third date in Botswana to the Queen's 90th birthday to Prince George's meeting with President Obama.
