Ms Miller, 39, claimed The Sun obtained medical records of her pregnancy through illegal means and that the paper’s then editor, Rebekah Brooks, knew that she was a mother-to-be before her friends did.
She brought legal action against the newspaper’s publisher, News Group Newspapers (NGN), which denies that any illegal information-gathering took place at The Sun and has agreed to settle her case for damages without any admission of liability.
The actor attended a hearing in London on Wednesday at which a judge was asked to give a ruling on the wording of a statement that was read out to the court yesterday morning after the settlement was reached.
Speaking outside the court earlier, Ms Miller said in a prepared statement: “It was not my choice to be standing here, I wanted to go to trial.
“I wanted to expose the criminality that runs through the heart of this corporation.
“A criminality demonstrated clearly and irrevocably by the evidence which I have seen. I wanted to share News Group’s secrets just as they have shared mine.”
