Closer UK 'an entirely different magazine to Closer France'

The British version of Closer magazine has issued a statement to clarify that it is not linked to Closer France, which has published topless photos of the Duchess of Cambridge:

Morning all, understandably we have had a lot of messages this morning about the decision by Closer magazine in France to publish pictures of Kate Middleton.

To clarify, this is the facebook page for Closer UK, published by Bauer media, and an entirely different magazine to Closer France.

Closer France is published under licence by Italian business Mondadori, and Closer magazine UK would like to make it clear that the two publications make entirely independent editorial decisions.
