Last year Harry won a court battle against the Mail on Sunday for defamation.
He sued after the paper ran a story about his separate High Court claim regarding his UK security arrangements.
The piece published in February 2022 was under the headline: "Exclusive: How Prince Harry tried to keep his legal fight with the government over police bodyguards a secret… then – just minutes after the story broke – his PR machine tried to put a positive spin on the dispute."
ANL hit back at the fresh allegations, describing them at the time as "preposterous smears" and a "pre-planned and orchestrated attempt to drag the Mail titles into the phone-hacking scandal".
A spokesperson for ANL also said the claims were "unsubstantiated and highly defamatory claims, based on no credible evidence".
Harry turned up for the first day yesterday smiling as he was surrounded by bodyguards.
He then sat at the back of the courtroom making notes in a black book.
