British singer Adele's toddler son has won a five-figure sum in damages after paparazzi photographed private family moments.
Adele's lawyer Jenny Afia said Wednesday that the Grammy-winning
performer was adamant her son Angelo must never become "public
property."
She said: "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."
Afia said Adele accepts her public profile, but the family never encourages routine photos that intrude on their privacy.
The damages from the settlement with photo agency Corbis Images UK
will be held in a trust for Angelo, who turns 2 in October, and the
agency agreed not to use the photos again.
