A British court has ruled that Prince Harry and six other plaintiffs, among them music icon Elton John, must pay an initial sum of 9.5 million pounds—approximately $13 million—to the publisher of the Daily Mail newspaper. The decision came after the group failed to prevail in their invasion of privacy litigation against the media outlet.

The judgment represents a significant setback for the high-profile plaintiffs who had sought damages from the newspaper publisher. The court’s determination that the defendants bear financial responsibility marks a turning point in the contentious legal dispute between the celebrities and the print media company.
