"Their Royal Highnesses the Prince and Princess of Wales, have been successful in legal proceedings brought in France against the owner of Paris Match, which published a grossly intrusive article and long-lens paparazzi photographs of their private family holiday in the Alps in April. The statement continued: The ruling affirms that, notwithstanding their public duties as members of the Royal Family, Their Royal Highnesses and their children are entitled to respect for their private lives and family time, without unlawful interference and intrusion."
"The Prince and Princess of Wales are committed to protecting their private family time and ensuring that their children can grow up without undue scrutiny and interference, the spokesperson added. They will not hesitate to take such action as is necessary to enforce those boundaries. At first, the royal couple asked for financial compensation in the case, but they later requested that the publication publish a judicial notice in its magazine."
Prince William and Princess Kate won a lawsuit in France after Paris Match published long-lens paparazzi photographs and details from their April family holiday in the Alps. A French court ruled the outlet violated the family's privacy by printing the images and accompanying information about their children: Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis. The ruling affirmed that, despite public duties, the couple and their children are entitled to respect for private family life without unlawful interference. The couple sought initially financial compensation, then requested a judicial notice be published. Paris Match was ordered to pay legal expenses, which have been settled.
