The High Court has addressed how legal costs will be split in the Prince Harry and Sir Elton John case against Associated Newspapers Limited. A trial is set for mid-January 2026. Should the claimants be liable for the publisher's fees, two judges have decided on cost-sharing for shared expenses. Previous court decisions limited spending to roughly £4.1 million for the claimants and £4.5 million for the Daily Mail publisher, filings show. The proposed legal costs for the lawsuit from both sides initially totaled tens of millions of pounds.
