Australian newspaper shows Kate’s bare bottom

SYDNEY: One of Rupert Murdoch’s Australian newspapers on Wednesday published a picture showing the bare bottom of Prince William’s wife Kate, refusing to follow a “ridiculous” ban imposed by the British media.

The image was taken during the royal couple’s hugely successful tour of Australia in April when they showed off their infant son George, and was run in the Sydney Daily Telegraph a day after it appeared in German tabloid Bild, which declared she had a “beautiful bum.”
