Robbie Williams feels ‘sick and violated’ after paparazzi take photos of his baby daughter

THE singer has hit out at a magazine which published pictures of his daughter he claims were taken by a photographer hiding in bushes on private property.

BRITISH pop star Robbie Williams has told fans he feels ‘sick and violated’ after finding that a photographer had taken pictures of he and baby daughter on holiday.

Williams took to Twitter today to share clippings from two German newspapers, showing him on holiday with Sardinia with his wife Ayda Field and 18-month-old daughter Teddy.

The family appear unaware they’re being photographed, and Williams claimed the shots were obtained by a man “hiding in the bushes on private property taking pics of my baby girl.”

As Heatworld points out, the photographer and magazines running the pictures could well be in violation of the UK Press Complaints Commission Editors’ Code of Practice:

“Editors must not use the fame, notoriety or position of a parent or guardian as sole justification for publishing details of a child’s private life.”

Having spent much of his career battling booze and srugs as a notorious ladies’ man, Williams has, in recent years, settled into a new role as a husband and fiercely protective father. He and Field married in 2010, and are currently expecting a second child together.

The family holiday comes ahead of his upcoming Australian tour, kicking off next month.
