LONDON - Prince Harry will be ready to give evidence in a London court over his lawsuit against the publisher of a British tabloid on Tuesday, his lawyer said, prompting the judge to say he was “surprised” by his absence on Monday.

Prince Harry’s lawyer David Sherborne told the judge, Mr Timothy Fancourt, that the prince would not be attending Monday’s hearing, held in a modern courtroom at the High Court’s Rolls Building that was packed with media and a smattering of members of the public. MGN, now owned by Reach, apologised at the start of the trial for one admitted occasion that the Sunday People had unlawfully sought information about Prince Harry, accepting he was entitled to compensation.

This week’s appearance will be the second time this year Prince Harry has attended the High Court, after joining singer Elton John and others for hearings in March over their lawsuit against the publisher of the Daily and Sunday Mail tabloids.
