In a recent incident, Hilary Duff took a stand against a photographer who was spotted snapping pictures of children without their parents’ consent. As any protective parent would agree, it’s downright unsettling to see a stranger photographing kids, especially when they’re unaware of what’s happening. This past weekend, the actress and mother couldn’t help but speak out when she encountered this troubling situation.
On Saturday, Hilary shared a video on social media confronting a male photographer who was capturing images of kids playing football at a park. Her caption was clear: “Paparazzi shooting KIDS! Go ‘practice’ your photography on ADULTS! Creep! Laws need to change! This is stalking minors! Disgusting!”
In the video, Hilary directly addresses the photographer, asking, “Who are you here with?” and “Can you stop taking pictures of the kids please?” His dismissive reply, claiming it was legal, only fueled her frustration. “It’s making me feel really uncomfortable,” she stated firmly. When the photographer suggested she was being paranoid, Hilary calmly explained, “No, it’s just an uncomfortability factor that these are 7-year-old children and you don’t have a child here. They’re our children, and we would like to protect them.”
As the conversation escalated, Hilary resorted to her celebrity platform to highlight the issue, threatening to share the incident with her 15 million Instagram followers. In a bizarre attempt to deflect, the photographer claimed that she was making the situation creepy, even trying to block her camera.
Despite the confrontation, Hilary chose not to reveal his identity, and he has yet to respond publicly. This isn’t the first time the actress has voiced her concerns about paparazzi behavior. In 2018, she confronted a photographer who had been trailing her while she was pregnant, expressing that the constant intrusion is simply unacceptable.
