Court bans further publication of Kate pics

A French court has banned a gossip magazine from further publishing topless photographs of Kate Middleton and ordered it to hand the pictures over to the royal couple.

Kate and husband William, the duke of Cambridge, were not in court — they were being carried on thrones and dining on coconuts in remote Tuvalu as part of their Asian tour to mark the queen’s diamond jubilee.

The injunction also prevents France’s Closer magazine from selling the pictures to other media.
