OK, Kate met William in 2001, they were engaged in 2010, and married in 2011.

So, at what point were her "somewhat common boobs" (that few would care much about) transformed to being "royal" and even stellar, needing protection from the public domain?

Seems odd that horrible and tasteless pictures of dead folks are widely made public, without much regard for love ones _with no cry out for irt to stop. Yet, many say that these garden variety boobs need special status and protection.

Odd that the National Geographic showed boob shots of poor folks in underdeveloped nations, I suspect without their consent or knowledge. (I still recall one, in very poor taste, of a black woman breast feeding a juvenile pig).
