Prince Harry's decision to settle with News Group Newspapers may have been the smart move, according to one expert.
He'd been suing the group - which publishes the Sun and the now defunct News of the World - alleging they obtained information about him by illegal means, over 15 years.
The settlement is reportedly over $20 million.
Royal correspondent Victoria Arbiter says settling will save a headache.
"At the end of the day, the UK justice system is prohibitively expensive - the cost would have been absolutely eye-watering. So thankfully, this has given him the closure that he so longer for."
