Some young members of the Royal Family have come under criticism recently for becoming what is described by older courtiers as the Heat magazine generation.

Wedding Bedding - £500,000 for duvet cover shot?

According to the Torygraph we may get to see the very wedding bedding photos from Peter and his Misus to be sleep in before and after their wedding.

Pete "Grins Widely" Phillips has creamed off a cool half million from top quality society magazine Hello! for exclusive wedding evening pictures with his fiancée Autumn Kelly. The mind boggles as to the nature of these piccies - a drunken hokey cokey photo taken at a squiffy angle is a treat indeed but will the coverage really extend to the bedroom?

Zara flys the Flag astride a Land Rover Freelander

Pete's sister, Zara, was the first person in direct line to the throne to be paid to appear in an advertisement, posing for Land Rover, a lthough it is understood that the decision was swayed byu a recent report that highlighted the Freelander safety standards at a time when the brand was under fire.

Zara went on to become the face of Rolex watches.

The article concludes: Is the Royal Family cheapening itself by earning cash advertising? Or do they have every right to make money as "celebrities"?
