The Duke of Sussex has lost out in a legal battle against the Mail on Sunday over a story that criticised the wildlife photos he posted on Instagram.
Harry had accused the paper of running an inaccurate headline: "Drugged and tethered ... what Harry didn't tell you about those awe-inspiringwildlife photos" along with an article about photos he'd posted of himself with an elephant.
He said a conservation organisation website explained how the elephants were tranquillised and tethered.

But the Independent Press Standards Organisation (IPSO) didn't accept his complaint in a decision made this week.
"The complainant (Harry) said the article was inaccurate as it reported that … he had intentionally misled the public to give the impression that he was a superior wildlife photographer who had captured the images in dangerous circumstances," the IPSO said in its ruling.

"The Committee did not consider that it was significantly misleading to report that the photographs posted on the complainant's Instagram account did not quite tell the full story and that the complainant had not explained the circumstances in which the photographs had been taken."
Harry, 35, has made complaints against several news outlets recently, as he continues to blame the media for his mother Diana's death and for harrassing Meghan.
