Nikki Sanderson suffered years of physical and verbal abuse because of newspaper stories she believes were based on phone hacking and other illegal activities by journalists, a court heard. The 39-year-old actress made the allegation as she gave evidence as one of four claimants in the trial involving Prince Harry at the High Court in central London. She is suing Mirror Group Newspapers over 37 articles in the Daily Mirror, Sunday Mirror and People newspapers between 2003 and 2009.
