UK's Prince William wins case against Paris Match over holiday photos
- The Nanterre court on October 14 delivered a final order granting Prince William, Prince of Wales, and Catherine, Princess of Wales, a legal victory after finding Paris Match magazine infringed their privacy and image rights.
- Paris Match's April images prompted William and Kate to contact lawyers, leading to summary proceedings issued on April 28 over their private ski holiday at a French resort in the Alps.
- Photographs showed Prince William and Kate with Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis on the slopes and a chalet balcony, while a Buckingham Palace balcony photo circulated.
- The ruling ordered Paris Match magazine to pay the couple's legal costs in France and print a judicial notice, while Kensington Palace said the couple will enforce their privacy boundaries.
- The ruling establishes that despite public duties, Prince William, Princess Catherine and their children deserve privacy, highlighting William's strong protectiveness amid royal family tensions.
