Kate Middleton, everybody's favourite Sloane, will be pleased to hear that a recent report has found that the Press Complaints Comission took too long to take to intervene against her harrassment by the paparazzi. The report said: "In the case of Ms Middleton, harassment was evident, yet photographs taken by the paparazzi continued to appear in national and regional papers. We see no plausible public interest defence."
Kate Middleton has been a promiment fixture in the tabloids since her relationship with Prince William, the two split in April blaming media pressure for the break-up. After their break-up Middleton toned down her uber-Sloane look and was photographed wearing a range of trendier outfits, proving that even without Wills we're still interesting in what she's wearing! If recent rumours are anything to go by the couple may still be seeing each other in secret after she was spotted in the Royal Box at the Diana memorial concert.
Committee chairman John Whittingdale told BBC Breakfast that Ms Middleton had been subjected to "really intolerable harassment". Paparazzi interest in the young woman reached a head when she was doorstepped the morning of her birthday: "she opened her front door to be confronted by a bank of press photographers and TV cameras and was then pursued down the street," he said. "Now that quite clearly is a breach of the Press Complaints Commission code and we are critical of the Press Complaints Commission for not acting sooner to put a stop to it."
