Press watchdog IPSO has upheld a privacy complaint against Mail Online over a story about Princess Beatrice wearing a “very skimpy bikini”.

The piece was published on 27 June and was headlined: “Beatrice makes a splash on yet ANOTHER day off! Princess dives into the sea in a very skimpy bikini as she enjoys a sunshine break on a yacht in Monaco.”

It reported that the UK royal had been “spotted on board luxury yacht with long term boyfriend”. And it included a number of what IPSO said were “grainy photographs” of the Princess on board the yacht in a bikini and swimming in the sea near to the boat.
