Prince Harry and singer Sir Elton John are among a group of celebrities launching legal action against Daily Mail publisher Associated Newspapers, alleging phone-tapping and other breaches of privacy, a law firm for the group said on Thursday.

The group includes actresses Elizabeth Hurley and Sadie Frost, Sir Elton's partner and filmmaker David Furnish, and Doreen Lawrence, mother of teenager Stephen Lawrence, who was murdered in a racist attack in 1993.

Evidence from the plaintiffs reportedly point to breaches of privacy by Associated Newspapers, including placing listening devices inside people's cars and homes, as well as commissioning the bugging of live, private telephone calls, law firm Hamlins said in a statement.

How Prince Harry and Meghan's relationship with royals could now change

Hamlins is representing Prince Harry and Frost, while Ms Lawrence, Hurley, Sir Elton and Mr Furnish are being represented by Gunnercooke, the statement said.

The Duke of Sussex and his wife Meghan Markle's relations with Britain's tabloid press collapsed after they were married in 2018. The couple have previously said they would have “zero engagement” with four major British papers, including The Daily Mail, accusing them of false and invasive coverage.

The couple also cited media intrusion as a major factor in their decision to step down from royal duties and move to the US

Associated Newspapers, the publisher behind The Daily Mail, The Mail on Sunday and the Mail Online, did not immediately respond to a Reuters request for comment.

Girls full-contact rugby may be in its infancy in the Middle East, but there are already a number of role models for players to look up to.

Sophie Shams (Dubai Exiles mini, England sevens international)

An Emirati student who is blazing a trail in rugby. She first learnt the game at Dubai Exiles and captained her JESS Primary school team. After going to study geophysics at university in the UK, she scored a sensational try in a cup final at Twickenham. She has played for England sevens, and is now contracted to top Premiership club Saracens.

----

Seren Gough-Walters (Sharjah Wanderers mini, Wales rugby league international)

Few players anywhere will have taken a more circuitous route to playing rugby on Sky Sports. Gough-Walters was born in Al Wasl Hospital in Dubai, raised in Sharjah, did not take up rugby seriously till she was 15, has a master’s in global governance and ethics, and once worked as an immigration officer at the British Embassy in Abu Dhabi. In the summer of 2021 she played for Wales against England in rugby league, in a match that was broadcast live on TV.

----

Erin King (Dubai Hurricanes mini, Ireland sevens international)

Aged five, Australia-born King went to Dubai Hurricanes training at The Sevens with her brothers. She immediately struck up a deep affection for rugby. She returned to the city at the end of last year to play at the Dubai Rugby Sevens in the colours of Ireland in the Women’s World Series tournament on Pitch 1.

Labour dispute

The insured employee may still file an ILOE claim even if a labour dispute is ongoing post termination, but the insurer may suspend or reject payment, until the courts resolve the dispute, especially if the reason for termination is contested. The outcome of the labour court proceedings can directly affect eligibility.
