Moment Prince Harry lookalike reads bombshell court statement word-for-word on live TV

Following Prince Harry's emotional day at the Royal Courts of Justice, in central London, GB News hired an impersonator of the Duke of Sussex to reenact his testimony word-for-word. The actor was the spitting image of the 41-year-old royal and wore a navy suit, a crisp white shirt, and a red tie, with a green-screened courtroom behind him.

Harry was in court for his trial against Associated Newspapers Limited (ANL), the publisher of The Mail and Mail on Sunday, which he accuses of using unlawful means to gather information, including phone hacking. According to reports, the royal appeared to get emotional in court as he referenced media attacks on his wife, Meghan Markle. Demonstrating part of Harry's testimony, GB News' impersonator stated: "Since this litigation, it's only got worse, not better. It's fundamentally wrong to put us through this again when all we wanted was an apology and accountability.

"It's a horrible experience - they continue to come after me. They've made my wife's life an absolute misery, my Lord."

Harry spent two-and-a-half hours in the witness stand today and said it was "disgusting" to hear the Daily Mail publisher claim he doesn't have a right to privacy as its defence. ANL has strongly denied any wrongdoing and is defending the allegations.

Viewers were quick to comment on the reconstruction video, with one writing: "Accountability and apology???!!!"

A second added: "GB News, you are much dumber than I thought. Please hire someone who imitates Kate's 'speeches' word for word."

A third remarked: "A few more acting lessons required to sell this in my opinion." A fourth said: "Is this some kind of joke? Call yourself a news station."

A fifth said: "I wish he would stop declaring he is a victim and look around at the real victims of this country. It's wrong on every level, Harry." However, someone replied: "Oh, please post access to the full segment!"

As well as Harry, Sir Elton John, former Liberal Democrat MP Sir Simon Hughes and actors Liz Hurley and Sadie Frost are bringing legal action against the publisher over allegations of unlawful information gathering.
