The Duke of Sussex made a solo appearance in New York ahead of wife Meghan's red carpet appearance in Beverly Hills on Wednesday December 4.
Prince Harry, 40, spoke about media intrusion as joined Andrew Ross Sorkin at The New York Times DealBook Conference, revealing that his remedy was to stop reading it.
"Once you stop reading the stuff about yourself, you automatically remove their power," he said, also sharing that his reasons for suing Rupert Murdoch’s company was "accountability, it’s really that simple".

Having Ki join us in Lesotho this past October to see Sentebale’s work firsthand, and to experience the creativity, resilience and determination of the young people we serve, was truly special.
"'Friend' is making art accessible to everyone - an act that resonates deeply with Sentebale's ethos of leaving no one behind. This exhibition captures the spirit of inclusivity and community that lies at the heart of both Sentebale and Ki Smith Gallery. Sharing art as a powerful force for connection and change, is inspiring."
Meanwhile, the Duchess of Sussex will honor her and Harry's close friend and Hollywood producer at the Paley Honors Gala at the Beverly Wilshire Hotel in Beverly Hills, California.
It comes after the Sussexes celebrated Thanksgiving together at their family home in Montecito with their children and close family and friends.
