Lawyers made a complaint under the PCC code.
Heat Magazine has apologised to the Duchess of Cambridge after publishing a photo of her out shopping.
The PCC-brokered apology came about after lawyers for the princess made a complaint to the PCC under clause 3 of the Editors’ Code (privacy) and clause 4 (harassment).
The Duchess and her sister, Pippa Middleton, are both the subject of intense interest from press photographers.
