Prince Harry appears confident at London High Court ahead of press trial

Pagesix reported Prince Harry was "confident" as he arrived at London's High Court on Monday for his final showdown with the UK press; his spokesperson said the duke is "feeling ... ready".

Photographed in a navy suit, the 41-year-old grinned and waved at onlookers. He is among claimants including Elton John, Elizabeth Hurley and Jude Law suing Associated Newspapers for alleged illegal information gathering; the media group, which includes the Daily Mail, The Mail on Sunday and Mail Online, has "vigorously denied" the claims. People reported he is "confident and ready," and a source told People the case "is the culmination of what has been years of litigation."

The trial began Monday and is expected to last nine weeks, with Harry scheduled as the first witness on Thursday. He is not expected to reunite with his father, King Charles III, while abroad; the monarch, 77, is currently in Scotland, and Harry lives in Montecito, Calif., with his wife and two children.
