"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 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 have won a privacy case against a French magazine after it published paparazzi photographs of them and their children on a private family ski holiday, Kensington Palace said. William and Catherine launched legal action after their break was featured in Paris Match magazine in April, with a series of images documenting their activities with their children at a French resort in the Alps."
William and Catherine launched legal proceedings in France after Paris Match published long-lens paparazzi photographs of their private family ski holiday in the Alps, showing the couple and their children on the slopes and on a chalet balcony. Proceedings began days after publication in April and follow a previous successful legal action against Closer in 2012 over topless photos of Catherine. Paris Match's owner, part of LVMH, published a judicial notice acknowledging the content infringed the family’s private life and image rights. The couple preferred the publication of the notice rather than seeking compensation and stated they will protect their children from undue intrusion.
