Megan Williams has become the first model to apply to register
her image rights in Guernsey.
Miss Williams, 19, is on the books of the world-famous Storm agency
and is seen as a rising star in the industry as a face of American
brand Guess,
among others.
Guernsey trust company Liberation Management and law firm Appleby have jointly filed an application for
the registration of her personality and image rights on the
Guernsey register.
Michael Richards, Associate at Appleby and the firm's
registered image rights agent, said: "Megan's image is
integral to her work and is a growing source of her income as her
career develops.
"In the light of the successful image protection case
recently brought by singer Rihanna, it is increasingly important
for famous people to protect their image and reputation.
