The head of an Italian publishing group and a French photographer were charged this month over the publication of intimate photos of Prince William's wife Catherine sunbathing topless in France that sparked a furore. The photos were printed in two publications in September, one of which displayed shots of the former Kate Middleton half-naked having suncream rubbed into her buttocks by William at a private chateau in the south of France.

Two topless feminist activists staged a protest on the edge of St Peter's Square on Tuesday as cardinals began a conclave to elect a new pope. "Pope No More!" one of the women shouted, before she was dragged away by several police officers. The woman had "Paedophilia No More" scrawled on her bare chest and "Pope No More" on her back. A second woman had "War No More" on her chest. They also let off pink flares -- a parody of the white smoke from the roof of the Sistine Chapel that will signal a pope has been elected.
