I admire Kate and William. I think they are a very young, upbeat, youthful thinking couple who have teken the Royalty to a more human level. I wish them well and look forward to seeing them for many years and one day seeing them as a family.

However, that being said... you don’t go nude anywhere but your own home inside. If you are famous as these two are you have to know there are pervs out there with cameras that can see you. Is it right? No!!! Is it decent behavior?? NO!!! However, those taking these shots are neither right nor well behaved.

Those photos just like sex tapes and other photos taken when people decide to do that will surface especially if you are famous. It’s a fact of life.

It should be a good lesson for all people but...it won’t and so the saga will continue.

Good luck William and Kate.

True. If he got that close he could have gotten closer.

Go to the Telegraph and look for the article that shows where the photographer was when he took the photo. It's a few miles down the road, in a place where there is a slight gap between trees so you can get a distant look at the chateaux. He used a telescopic lens at God knows what magnification to get grainy pictures.

If some pervert from miles away uses a telescope to spy on your daughter changing clothes, I bet you wouldn't feel the same way about it.

He just used a good lens from the road. With modern stabilized lenses and camera bodies you don’t even need a tripod.

No chance in our family - or as my wife has always said, “there are three places in body that I will NEVER get sunburned!”

It is pure crazy. As I said in my previous post. These people are media whores. They know they are being followed 24/7, but let’s just whip off the bikini top. The only person I ever knew of doing that was the local big whig’s daughter in high school. I think she got her jollies knowing the boys peeked at her through the fence. Creepy.

I sincerely hope they do. This was a ridiculous stunt that the paper pulled. She and her husband were on a vacation together and she decided to get a little sun on her tata’s. I could see if it wasn't her husband or if she was out in public but she was in a secluded area that should have been a place for solace for her and William. Sue for billions!!!!

Anyone who thinks these photos weren’t planned by the royals isn’t thinking things through. The heir to the throne and his wife are vacationing in a place that has a bend in the road where photos can be taken of them by the pool, and security knows nothing of it, or if they do, they do nothing about it?

Right.

Because, like, what could happen? Some photos, that’s all. And that’s like no big deal to the concerns to security.

Right.

After all, it’s not like anyone would affix that telephoto lense to a rifle, instead of a camera.

Right?

Let’s see, Harry’s naked. Now Kate is naked.

WHAT a coinkydink!

So, either we’re seeing some sort of arcane ritual or... Kate is being used to “normalize” and trivialize Harry... or something of the sort.

And don’t tell me they don’t do such things, just look at the over-the-top giant baby and ship of the dead and burning phoenix of the London Olympics - oh yeah, they really fit in! LOL!

Anyway, one thing you can bank on - security was on this the ENTIRE time, start to finish. Guaranteed.

Oh, and P.S. - Harry’s not where everyone was told he is. He could be anywhere BUT there. Because if he IS there, he’s been set up BIG time - there’s no other explanation for it.

Except that it wasn’t in public.

Outside is most definitely public. An open window is public if you can be seen from outside. Kate knows there are cameras on her 24/7 so it was her own stupidity for wandering around topless outside. With all the publicity Harry got over his nudie pics a few days ago, maybe she was wanting some attention herself. Either way, she should know better. The future queen, of all people, needs to be minding her p's and q's and take to heart that old saying about not doing something you would want to tell your grandmother.

How do you know he didn’t use a Kodak box camera?

Except that this was so clearly the opposite of being in public, and that the laws in the country they were in at the time are incredibly strict. It is a super-secluded estate, and the photog used a VERY, VERY long range lens to capture the image whereas to the naked eye they would not have been seen - especially without setting out to purposefully disrupt their privacy to capture a photo of this nature.

Same here. Anyone with morals doesn’t show off the girls. I do know of one skank who’s kids dread when she parties because the shirt comes off after the first beer. The kids are mortified. You know those photos of Kate’s jigglies will be dug up again when her kids are school age. You’d think she’d have learned from Fergie’s airing of the boobs scandal.

Right there is where your argument fails. My, my, the Katiettes just happened to pose at that precise spot at that precise time.

Remember how Dodi's father was running around (may still be, but no one's paying attention to him) claiming that Phillip, along with MI6 and the SAS, orchestrated the deaths of his son and Diana?

I never really believed that to have any credibility. But I'm sure that the capability exists. And has probably been enhanced by 10+ years of war in Afghanistan and Iraq.

If I were this editor I wouldn't be sleeping all that well after making this kind of threat.

Adults know that if you are naked in the open, you WILL be photographed.


In my case, people run away screaming.
