Press Council dismisses Royal ‘GILF’ complaint but warns publications over sexualising children

Screen Shot 2015-06-22 at 11.00.59 AMBauer Media’s New Weekly has been warned over the use of children in sexually-suggestive material after the magazine published a photo of Prince Harry sitting with young African children, with a speech bubble below one of them implying the Queen is a ‘GILF’.

The image appeared in the January 5 issue of New Weekly and depicted the Prince apparently showing children photos on the screen of his camera.

In a speech bubble, Harry tell the kids: “These are the “private” Christmas pics”. A second speech bubble below one of the young boys says “Hot damn! Granny is a GILF’.

GILF is an acronym for ‘Grandmother I’d Like to Fuck’.
