The toddler son of singer Adele has accepted a
five-figure sum in damages in settlement of a privacy case brought by his
parents over paparazzi photos of his "milestone moments".
Lawyers for Adele, who launched the proceedings with her
partner Simon Konecki, said she was emphatic that two-year-old Angelo Adkins
was not and must never be "public property".
"It is a matter of profound sadness that many of his
milestone moments, such as his first family outing and his first trip to
playgroup, were photographed and published worldwide expressly against his
family's wishes. Adele and Simon never encourage such photos. Quite the
opposite", solicitor Jenny Afia told Mr Justice Bean in London
Corbis Images UK Limited had offered to pay damages and
legal costs to Angelo and agreed not to use the photos at issue again, she
added.
