Prince Harry and Prince William
A woman who sold stories on the Duke Of Cambridge and Prince Harry has been given a suspended sentence.
Tracey Bell - a mother of three young children - was given a nine-month prison sentence suspended for two years after The Old Bailey heard she received over £1000 for passing information about the royal siblings onto a tabloid newspaper between 2005 and 2006.
The 35-year-old - who pleaded guilty to one charge of committing misconduct in a public office - worked as a pharmacy assistant at prestigious military school, Sandhurst, during the time Prince William and Harry were training to become military officers.
Mr Justice Saunders said: "Offences of misconduct in public office are always serious and the public are entitled to expect that those who hold a public office and are paid by the public will not abuse that trust by obtaining money from journalists...however offences of this kind do vary in severity.
"Tracey Bell did not hold a senior position at Sandhurst. The information that she supplied was relatively low-grade and its disclosure has not caused significant damage to any public interest."
The judge said he would suspend the sentence because of the lower level of the offence, her ill health and the needs of her children.
Tracey has been ordered to complete 200 hours of unpaid community service and pay almost £1000 in costs.
