British TV personality Natalie Pinkham recently discovered pictures from 2003 depicting her and Prince Harry in a bar were stolen and published in The Sun newspaper Aug 15th, and then printed again Aug 16th in the Daily Mail. As the sole owner of the pictures, the London Press-Gazette is reporting that Natalie Pinkham has taken no legal action against The Sun, but intends to sue the Daily Mail for "flagrant" breach of copyright. The same article quoted Rex Features, a stock photography agency, stating that  “rights to publish the photographs legally might have cost up to £250,000 (approx $500,000) if sold on the open market” However, the newspaper might have to pay double the pictures' theoretical price if a judge rules that the breach was flagrant or deliberate.
