Middleton sues Rex Features for privacy over Christmas pic

By Dominic wireposts

Kate Middleton is suing a German magazine for publishing a picture of her taken on Christmas day.

The Guardian reports that Middleton is suing Rex Features over a picture of her taken playing tennis tennis at Restormel Manor, Cornwall, which was not published in the UK.

In December the Queen warned editors against taking pictures of her family over the Christmas period, reminding them of the privacy clause in the Editors’ Code.
