Elizabeth Hurley

Elizabeth Hurley is a prominent figure involved in a high-profile legal battle against Associated Newspapers, the publisher of the Daily Mail. This case, also involving Prince Harry and other celebrities like Elton John, alleges that the Daily Mail engaged in unlawful information gathering tactics, including phone hacking and accessing private records, to obtain stories. The trial, expected to last ten weeks, has recently commenced in London's High Court. Hurley, along with the other claimants, accuses the publisher of privacy invasion. The case is significant as it represents a major challenge to tabloid journalistic practices and raises important questions about media ethics and accountability. The outcome could have far-reaching implications for the relationship between the press and public figures in the UK.
