The issue topping headlines around the world covers topless Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge.The royal couple put on a brave face through this trying times attending a event at a Malaysian Mosque.

The Closer magazine published the photos of Kate, while the royal couple were vacationing at a villa in Provence last week.

The Royal Place officials confirmed the pictures were genuine and condemned the invasion of the couple's privacy. The Press Secretary for the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge in a offical stament condemned the invasion of privacy as "grotesque and unjustifiable invasion of privacy - worst excesses of the press," similar to paparazzi during the time of Princess Diana.

Closer editor Laurence Pieau said: "These photos are not in the least shocking. They show a young woman sunbathing topless, like the millions of women you see on beaches," according to BBC. Officials acting on behalf of their Royal Highnesses are consulting with lawyers and are considering legal options.

The tabloid pictures are a stark reminder of how tabloid exploited not only the Duke and Duchess but also Princess Diana.

Twitter reaction to @Closer:

"I think it's sad she can't even relax on holiday without some shit trying to make money out of her x"

"I don't think it matters if she was topless or not it is the fact she was on private property on a private holiday and someone trepassed with a long lens to get photographs."

"Boycott Closer magazine!"
