We hope this doesn’t add any stress on Kate Middleton!

As the Duchess of Cambridge preps for her first child, she’s also awfully busy with some major legal issues.

After a ridic and horrible topless photo scandal, Kate is finally moving forward with getting some justice against those involved!

Just as Kate deserves!

Both the publisher of Closer and a female photographer with La Provence have been charged with “invasion of privacy.”

Boom!

And what an invasion it was as Kate was photographed topless while relaxing at a private residence with her hubby, Prince William.

The lawsuit was filed pretty soon after the scandal occurred, and now it looks like Kate might be able to get some peace of mind.

All we can say is don’t mess with those royals!
