They hounded her on her way out of her house this morning just as they did Diana all those years ago.
Its like history repeating itself.
One photographer put the camera just inches from her face.
Its out of order and its sickening to see.
What do you think?

It's ridiculous that photographers are hounding her as if she's a celebrity or member of the Royal Family. Unfortunately, one photograph can get them up to $100,000 so as long as the gossip papers and magazines will buy, they will continue. Hopefully her lawyers will be able to get an injunction and some relief for her.
Contrary to what most people think (as listed in the answer to the question on the first page when I logged on) the Royal Family is NOT supported by the taxpayers. They survive on the money from the Duchey of Cornwall and a small amount from Parliament (no more than we give Presidents/Prime Ministers) and they DO pay taxes on that amount. Therefore they should not be forced to put up with this horrible hounding from the press. There are plenty of photo opps during official engagements, of which there are many.

Like all the royal family and those associated with it, she can leave.
In this day and age she must have been well aware of what happens, its a price that is paid for being in the public eye.
I do not think the press should be penalised as they do an important role in maintaining a balanced society.
No, I would not like to be hounded by the press, however, if I had the life style they have I might not be that bothered.

Paparazzi in and of itself is totally out of line. I am no Britney Spears fan, but I saw pictures of her on a beach once and the camera were only like 3 feet away, with about 30 paparazzi. I actually felt sorry for her! Can you imagine the life of someone who just met and fell in love with a prince? It's ridiculous.

I agree - it's totally out of order. The photographers would get their photos without being quite so intrusive. Kate is entitled to privacy. However, we have to ask ourselves if we are encouraging this media frenzy by our interest & by buying the papers & magazines that carry these photos.

Yeah; I agree completely. When I saw footage on the news; it gave me a bad feeling of this possible union. It's very sad. They should be able to be with each other if they want; but there are too many sick people in this world.

Perhaps if people stopped feeding the press frenzy, and made a point of NOT buying publications who buy pictures from those types of 'photographer', then they'd take the hint and go off and follow Paris Hilton or someone equally vapid.

Well, yeah, that's what she gets for dating the future king of England. Obviously, you're going to get bothered. I am seeing her being hounded more than William and that's telling you something.
