• What Morgan knew about phone hacking – in his own words

Piers Morgan knew his journalists were using private voicemails as the basis of their stories, the royal biographer Omid Scobie has told Prince Harry’s phone-hacking trial.

Scobie, who co-wrote a sympathetic book about the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, told the high court he was doing work experience at the Daily Mirror in 2002 when he overheard Morgan discussing the source of a story about Kylie Minogue with a reporter.
