LONDON (AP) — Britain's Queen Elizabeth II is warning newspapers not to run unauthorized paparazzi photos of the royal family.
Buckingham Palace says a lawyer for the British monarch has written to newspaper editors telling them not to publish intrusive photos of the family at home.
The palace said Sunday that the letter was sent "in response to many years of the royal family being hounded by photographers on the queen's private property."
The royal family has long had an uncomfortable relationship with photographers. Some people feel media hounding contributed to the death of Princess Diana in a car crash in 1997.
More recently, Prince William and Prince Harry have been snapped emerging from nightclubs and William's girlfriend Kate Middleton was pursued outside her home.
