Prince Harry and six other defendants, including Elton John, Sadie Frost, and Elizabeth Hurley, have been ordered to pay nearly $13 million in an initial payment to a U.K. tabloid publisher.

The defendants lost their High Court privacy case in July against Associated Newspapers Limited, the publisher of the Daily Mail and Mail on Sunday, which they had accused of unlawful information gathering.
