Prince Harry's no-show at court on the first day of his individual case against a tabloid newspaper was 'absolutely extraordinary', the newspaper's lawyers say.

London's High Court was packed on Monday morning in expectation Prince Harry would give evidence in his lawsuit against a tabloid publisher. Except, to the surprise of everyone including the judge, the prince wasn't there.The prince flew into London from California on Sunday night

While the duke was not scheduled to give evidence until Tuesday, the judge had previously directed that each of the claimants be present in the court for the first day of their individual case, in case opening statements ran short and there was time in the day to begin evidence. "I have to cross-examine [Prince Harry] on 33 articles and that cannot be done in one day," Andrew Green KC said.

"The list of witnesses who are not being called in relation to Prince Harry’s claim is so long that I will only identify them when I go through individual articles," Mr Sherbourne said.
