Prince Harry has disclosed that he was introduced to David Sherborne, a renowned privacy and defamation specialist, by Sir Elton John and his husband David Furnish.
This introduction took place during a holiday that Harry and Meghan had enjoyed with the couple in France.
When asked about when he first approached solicitors regarding making a claim against the publisher, Harry suggested that it was actually Mr. Sherborne’s idea.
In his memoir titled “Spare,” Harry unveiled that after a highly successful tour of South Africa in September 2019, he and Meghan felt confident and courageous.
They decided to seize the moment and announce their intention to sue three British tabloids for their disgraceful conduct and long-standing practice of phone hacking.
During their time with Elton John, David Furnish informed Meghan that he would be interested in collaborating with her on a Netflix animation project called Pearl.
However, shortly after this conversation, Netflix announced that they were dropping the Pearl project due to budget cuts, which raises questions.
Could it be possible that Elton and David never intended to produce the Pearl project and it was merely a suggestion to impress Meghan?
It is more likely than not that Elton and David used the project as a means to win over the Harkles, and once successful, David discreetly asked Netflix to abandon the project, thereby relieving himself of any obligation to follow through.
Furthermore, it is plausible that Elton, David, and Sherborne used Harry and Meghan to fund their lawsuit, despite the lack of substantial evidence regarding Harry’s alleged hacking.
It is also worth considering whether Elton and Diana, Princess of Wales, parted ways shortly before her death because she discovered she was being used by him.
Moreover, it is possible that Elton generously allowed the use of his private jet, only to ignore their phone calls once he had obtained what he desired from the Harkles.
Is it conceivable that these individuals, including Oprah, Elton, and Sherborne, manipulated Harry and Meghan for their own gain, only to discard them once their objectives were achieved?
Regrettably, it appears that Harry and Meghan have been deceived by those they believed were their friends, such as Oprah, Elton, and Sherborne, since even before their departure from the royal family.
These so-called friends convinced them that they could become a billion-dollar brand, a promise that has proven to be false.
It is possible that Elton is using Harry, especially considering his involvement in the lawsuit.
It does not seem coincidental that Elton flew the Harkles to visit him on his private jet and introduced them to his lawyer, David Sherborne.
Unfortunately, Harry seems oblivious to the fact that the people currently in his life are exploiting him, including his wife and Elton.
As a result, he has distanced himself from and abandoned his true friends, who would never betray him.
Rumors have circulated that Elton John has instructed his lawyer to abandon Harry after the lawsuit.
During the High Court proceedings on Wednesday, Barrister Andrew Green KC sought to determine how the claim had come about.
He asked Harry if, prior to meeting Mr. Sherborne in France, he had sought legal advice regarding a potential claim against the Mirror Group.
Harry responded with a simple “Nope, nothing at all.”
He admitted that he had never considered taking legal action before that meeting, as he had never been presented with any evidence.
According to Harry, all the information was contained within the palace, and he would never have been allowed to file a complaint.
It is worth noting that Mr. Sherborne’s clients have included the late Princess Diana, actor Michael Douglas, former Prime Minister Tony Blair, and Colleen Rooney during the Waggathy Christie trial.
Elton John himself settled a phone hacking claim against News Group Newspapers, the publisher of The Sun, in 2019.
