2007: Kate Middleton in the media spotlight
Footage of Kate Middleton leaving her flat on 9 January 2007, the day of her 25th birthday, highlights the level of attention paid to her by the media.
After these events Prince Williams' spokesman said the prince wanted the harassment of his girlfriend by the paparazzi to end.
In 2005, Miss Middleton's lawyers had contacted newspaper editors to ask the press to leave her and her family alone.
They argued that photographers had followed her almost every day and night since she had left university.
