Prince Harry is entitled to just £500 compensation from Mirror Group Newspapers (MGN) their lawyer told the High Court.
MGN is being sued by several high-profile people over alleged unlawful information gathering at its titles.
The publisher of titles including The Mirror, Sunday Mirror and Sunday People, is largely contesting the claims, arguing that some have been submitted too late.
During his closing argument, Andrew Green KC, representing the MGN said: "There is only one occasion of admitted unlawful information gathering in respect of the Duke of Sussex, in February 2004."

Green continued: "In this case the Duke of Sussex should be awarded a maximum of £500, given the single invoice naming him concerns inquiries on an isolated occasion, and the small sum on the invoice (£75) suggests inquiries were limited."
