According to the BBC, Adele Adkins and her partner, Simon Konecki, brought a case against photo agency Corbis Images UK Limited over pictures of their son, Angelo Adkins' "milestone moments." The photo agency took the photos in June and November 2013 without the couple's permission and then sold them to the English press.

In court, Adele's solicitor-the singer was not present-told the High Court in London that her son "was not and must never be public property." Her solicitor also said Adele was saddened that her son's "milestone moments, such as his first family outing and his first trip to playgroup, were photographed and published worldwide expressly against his family's wishes."

"These images were taken during private, recreational time unconnected with professional or public engagements," the solicitor said in court. "They represent a clear infringement of our client's right to privacy."
