Prince Harry attended court for a second day on Wednesday, facing further cross-examination by MGN's barrister.
After five hours of grilling on Tuesday, the Duke was told that he would need to return for a following day of questioning.
He was instructed not to disclose any details of the case to anyone, and he took the opportunity to joke with the judge about FaceTiming his wife and children.
This seems to confirm that Meghan Markle and the kids, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet have remained stateside, choosing not to travel with Harry for the trial.

Harry actually missed the first day in court on Monday as he chose to fly in after his daughter Lilibet's second birthday.

What is Prince Harry's court case about?
The Duke has made claims regarding the newspaper group (MGN) using illegal methods such as phone hacking to obtain information about him in order to run stories over a 10-year-period.
Speaking to ITV’s Tom Bradby regarding his bombshell memoir "Spare", Harry talked about his continued determination to hold the press accountable. He said: "They want to hold us and the rich and powerful to account and they want to police society – then who’s policing them?"

What has Prince Harry said in court?
In Prince Harry's witness statement, he detailed many parts of his childhood and teenage years and how they were affected by stories that ran in the press.
As a child, every single one of these articles played an important and destructive role in my growing up," he said.
The royal admitted: "Everything felt as though I was under 24-hour surveillance," referring to being followed by paparazzi.

"These kinds of articles made me feel as though my relationship with Chelsy was always set to be doomed," he said.
"Ultimately, these factors led her to make the decision that a Royal life was not for her, which was incredibly upsetting for me at the time." he continued.
