Overview
- Judge Sandrine Gil of the Nanterre Court’s First Chamber finalized a ruling this month finding Paris Match violated the family’s privacy and image rights.
- Paris Match must publish a judicial notice acknowledging the breach, pay the couple’s French legal costs, and faces a €10,000 penalty for each issue until the notice appears.
- The case concerns long-lens paparazzi images from an April Alps ski holiday that included photos of Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis.
- The order applies to the magazine’s print edition and related content on its social media channels.
- The Prince and Princess of Wales were represented in France by Alain Toucas-Massillon via Mishcon de Reya, and Kensington Palace said the decision affirms their family’s right to private life.
