Katie Nicholl

Katie Nicholl is a former diary editor and royal editor at the Mail on Sunday. She is currently newsworthy due to allegations made against her in the ongoing legal proceedings involving Prince Harry and other claimants against Associated Newspapers Ltd (ANL), publisher of the Daily Mail and Mail on Sunday. Specifically, Nicholl is accused of commissioning a "blag" of sensitive medical information about Sadie Frost, allegedly using a private investigator to obtain details Frost had not even shared with her mother. This accusation forms part of a broader case where claimants allege ANL engaged in unlawful information-gathering techniques through private investigators. The case highlights the ethical concerns surrounding journalistic practices and the use of private investigators to obtain information about public figures, and Nicholl's alleged involvement places her at the center of these allegations.
