"I wonder if some Luggers know that yesterday, The Sun published a picture where Sophie Rhys-Jones' (34) naked breast can be admired". Rhys-Jones will marry Prince Edward on 19 June. The picture was shot about 10 years ago in Spain while Sophie was on a business trip with colleagues from the radio station for which they were doing p.r. work. The Sun has bought the picture from the person who took the shot, one of Sophie's colleagues at that time. He was offered no less than 400,000 USD !!! This person was promptly fired by the radio station when the news appeared in the paper yesterday. Guess he didn't need to work for them any longer in any case... Three personal comments: 1. Where is the relevance of such image? This picture was taken in another context and it is hypocrite to make a fuss about this right now that she is about to marry Prince Edward. The picture just displays a funny situation that happened 10 years ago. 2. This affair does raise a couple of questions, not only on the inexcusable behavior of her former colleague, but sadly enough also on professional press ethics (at least, of some sort of press). 3. Beware of colleagues... ;-) The picture has been seen in many internet newsgroups and on sites yesterday. Pascal NO ARCHIVE - ---- Hmmm...What's the 'big deal"? I'm sure there must have been other Princ's who married Princes' with tits. Too bad he didn't get a shot of both breasts...maybe he would have been paid for 'double exposure' (hah)...perhaps $800,000.US?...hah. ED.
