The photos plunged the presidency into a crisis which saw Francois Hollande’s official partner, Valerie Trierweiler, taken to hospital.

Julie Gayet is seeking 50,000 euros ($68,000) in damages and 4,000 euros in legal costs from the magazine.

If Julie Gayet wins, Closer magazine will have to publish the legal verdict on its cover page, AFP reports.
