On Friday, the world (literally, the world) was abuzz over photos of Kate Middleton, duchess of Cambridge, sunbathing topless while on holiday in Provence. Since then the royal scandal has graced the headlines of many if not most tabloids. Papers in France, Ireland and Italy have published the photos incensing the House of Windsor and necessitating a reading of any and all privacy...
