Naked Kate Middleton is now Pregnant Kate Middleton. Chi Magazine, the same Italian publication that unscrupulously devoted a 26-page spread to private images of a topless, sunbathing Kate Middleton last year, is now giving the Duchess’ baby bump the same treatment–or trying to, at least. Chi, owned by the family of former Italian prime minister Silvio Berlusconi, bought the not at all racy photos recently taken of the Royal couple on a private island (after British tabloid The Mirror turned them down).
St James’ Palace released a statement in response to the news, saying, “We are disappointed that photographs of the Duke and Duchess on a private holiday look likely to be published overseas,” adding, “This is a clear breach of the couple’s right to privacy.”
The royal baby isn’t due until July, so be prepared for many more non-scandalous scandalous pics in the months to come.
