Prince William's Girlfriend Kate Middleton "Hounded" By The Paparazzi

Kate Middleton is being "hounded" by paparazzi in the same way as Britain's late Princess Diana was, says the coroner who investigated the royal's death.

Lord Justice Scott Baker, claims Kate - the girlfriend of Diana's son, Prince William - receives much the same amount of media attention as Diana did, suggesting the issue of the paparazzi is still a serious one for the royals.

Baker said: "You only have to look at the papers today to see the paparazzi are hounding Kate Middleton in the same way Diana was previously being hounded."

Princess Diana and her boyfriend Dodi Al Fayed were killed in a car crash in a Paris tunnel in 1997 as they attempted to flee photographers. During his six-month investigation into the princess' death, Baker heard from over 240 witnesses. The role of the paparazzi was one of the many aspects he took into account during his investigation.
