The editor of the French tabloid that published topless photos of Kate Middleton on Friday is defending her decision to print the pictures, saying, “These photos are not in the least shocking.”

Laurence Pieau of Closer magazine tells the French press that the shots “show a young woman sunbathing topless, like the millions of women you see on beaches.”

The editor claims the magazine has even more racy photos of Middleton and Prince William, saying, “I won’t hide the fact that there are more intimate pictures that exist that we haven’t published and will not publish.”

Pieau argues, “One shouldn’t dramatize these pictures,” noting, “The reaction has been a little disproportionate. It is a young couple that has just been married. They are in love. They are beautiful.”

“She is the princess of the 21st century,” she concludes.

Pieau goes on to add that the photos of Middleton sunbathing in Provence, France are “not degrading” and “not similar” to the naked pictures of Prince Harry that were recently leaked from a fellow Las Vegas partygoer.

Shortly after the mag and its racy photo hit the newsstand, Middleton and Prince William filed a lawsuit against Closer for violation of privacy.

Check out the video of Pieau defending her decision below.

Do you think the magazine was wrong to publish the paparazzi photos of Middleton?

    Is nothing sacred? It would be nice if the paparazzi would give her just a little more respect than his mother got.

    Dear KJL, what is sacred about breasts of Kate M.?

  • Athena

    Maybe they should let William and Catherine decide whether they think the pics are shocking. After all it’s photos of them, not this silly editor. The papz took the photo half a mile from the chateau. They were at a private residence with very reasonable expectations of privacy. The papz and magazine should be ashamed of themselves.

    Excusez-moi Madame! Millions of women may go barebreasted at a public beach, BUT Kate went barebreasted on a private 640 acre estate. Those millions of women CHOSE to expose their breasts in public, Kate did not. You made that choice which was not yours to make! Idiote!

    Not to mention the millions of women that go topless on the beaches of Europe probably wouldn’t do it if they knew they were going to end up on the cover of a magazine.

    Wrong. Tasteless. Classless. Disrespectful. And–I hope–in the end illegal.

  • Public Consensus

    Looking at the topless photos, you can barely tell which chest is William’s and which is Kate’s, until you look at the face above. hahahhaha
