Princess Caroline of Monaco and a German magazine have settled a seven-year dispute Tuesday over published photos of her children, according to the Associated Press. The princess originally disputed eight pictures published by the celebrity magazine Bunte, including three with her children that were printed in 1993. But the court said that celebrities should expect occasional brushes with the paparazzi, and that she should not be compensated for the five pictures that did not include her children. Bunte said Tuesday that the princess dropped the case after the publication agreed not to print any more pictures of her children. Bunte said it paid no damages in the settlement.
