The appearance of Pippa Middleton’s racy photos in Internet sites and publications has prompted the Middletons to file a formal complaint against their publication. This was reported by international news sites, May 12, 2011.

The racy photos of Pippa show her in skimpy attire: a bra and a short white skirt, dancing with a shirtless man in shorts. One picture showed her sunbathing topless in Ibiza, Spain. The pictures hit the Web and made a big splash that it became an instant sensation. The Middletons filed a formal petition to Britain’s Press Complaints Commission to stop the publication of Pippa’s photos because it violated “family privacy”.

It can be remembered that the paparazzi have also tortured Lady Diana and had allegedly been the cause of her demise.
