(Newser) – Prince William's girlfirend Kate Middleton is getting tough on tabloids to get the paparazzi out of her face. Her lawyers filed a complaint with the Press Complaints Commission yesterday after the Daily Mirror published a close-up photo of her she said was obtained through harassment, the Daily Telegraph reports.

Earlier, they sent warning letters to the tabloids after more than 20 photographers rushed her outside her house on her 25th birthday. The possible future Royal, who works as an accessories buyer for the clothing chain Jigsaw, is "chased all over the land both to and from work, every moment of the day, both on foot and in cars," a source told the Telegraph.
