The Duke and Duchess, who are currently on Asia Pacific Tour, have launched legal action against the magazine in a French court for invasion of privacy.
On Friday, St James’s Palace said that it was suing the publishers of the magazine for publishing the pictures of the duchess and has described the pictures as a “grotesque invasion of privacy”.
However, the ‘Closer’ editor, Laurence Pieau, defended her decision of printing the photos saying that she did not think the photos of princess were “shocking”. She also stated that she thought the reaction had been “disproportionate”.
“Two weeks ago, there were the pictures of Prince Harry that had been published by the English press. So one shouldn’t be hypocritical. And those were pictures that were degrading and far more hot than those that we’re publishing. She’s a topless princess. There have been others. It’s really not new,” Sky news quoted Pieau as saying.
“We’re in the celebrity press business and we know that these images are full of joy, not degrading and concern a princess who is pretty and is making the whole world dream.”
