Italian magazine publishes Kate Middleton baby bump photos while on private vacation

Kate Middleton was not pleased to find that an Italian magazine published pictures of her bare baby bump while on vacation in Mustique with husband Prince William.

Italian magazine Chi, which also published topless photos of Middleton last September, photographed the royal pair spending time on the private Caribbean island.

According to the L.A. Times, a statement provided from St. James's Palace said they are, "disappointed that photographs of the Duke and Duchess on a private holiday look likely to be published overseas. This is a clear breach of the couple's right to privacy."

The couple, whose baby is due in July, is furious about the incident, Mirror reported.

“Yet again they have been unable to even have one week of holiday without, apparently, images being taken against their will,” a source said.

Mirror also stated that the pictures have the potential to appear in a magazine in the U.S. after already being sold for tens of thousands of pounds in Europe.
