about offering to pay for his own UK police protection.<\/p>\n<p>The tabloid, a sister publication to the Daily Mail which is owned by Associated Newspapers Limited, wrote that Harry had tried to keep his legal battle with the British Home Office over his security arrangements a \u201csecret.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>A judge on Friday found that the story inflicted \u201cserious damage to his reputation and substantial hurt, embarrassment and distress, which is continuing,\u201d according to an ITV dispatch <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"

was to mislead the public,\u201d the judge is quoted as saying.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThat supplies the necessary element to make the meanings defamatory at common law.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Harry had petitioned the UK government to provide year-round official security for him, wife Meghan Markle, and their two young children.<\/p>\n<p>The family has signaled that it would foot the bill for the security arrangements, but it nonetheless sought to arrange the detail through the Home Office.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\"

lawyers have claimed that the security risks are too great for the family to return to the UK.<\/p>\n<p>This is the second time in the last 16 months that a Sussex has won a court case against the publisher of the Mail on Sunday.<\/p>\n<p>Meghan, the Duchess of Sussex, won her court case against Associated Newspapers in February of last year after the Mail on Sunday printed parts of her handwritten letter she sent to her estranged father, Thomas Markle, in August 2018.<\/p>\n<p>Meghan wrote the five-page letter to Markle after their relationship collapsed in the run-up to her glittering wedding to Harry in May 2018, which her father missed due to ill health and after he admitted posing for paparazzi pictures.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img

out she had admitted in court papers discussing it with her communications secretary.<\/p>\n<p>The Mail, which published extracts in February 2019, said it did so to allow Markle to respond to comments made by Meghan\u2019s anonymous friends in interviews with People magazine.<\/p>\n<p>Meghan and Harry\u2019s relations with Britain\u2019s tabloid press collapsed after they got married, with
