French magazine Closer has been fined for publishing topless photos of Prince William's wife Kate, Duchess of Cambridge, a French court ruled Tuesday.

Prince William and Princess Kate, known as the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge in the royal protocol, receive warm welcome at the airport before they are whisked to the Botanic Gardens in Singapore. |
The court ordered not to distribute the magazine in print or online and also asked the magazine to hand over the original photos to the royal family within 24 hours of the ruling and to pay them 2,000 euros (about $2,600).
The magazine must pay a further 10,000 euros a day if it is late in handing over the photos.
