London - Sir Paul McCartney last night welcomed a Press Complaints Commission ruling that upheld complaints against Hello! magazine for invading his privacy and intruding into his grief a month after the death of his wife, Linda. He complained about photographs of him with his family in the May 30th edition.
The photos, under the headline "A month after losing wife Linda - Sir Paul McCartney - Getting by with a little help from his children" showed Sir Paul, his son and one of his daughters walking in Paris, seated by the Seine and eating lunch outside a cafe.
One photograph showed the family inside Notre Dame cathedral, and the magazine described how they "lit a candle for Linda and took some time to meditate in peace". Sir Paul said he had been unaware that he and his family had been "stalked" by photographers.
