Princess Zara Phillips, the Queen's granddaughter, has jetted into New Zealand to support the England rugby team.
Phillips, whose boyfriend Mike Tindall plays centre for England, had lunch today at a restaurant on Christchurch's The Strip with a group of friends.
She told The Press she was in town for the rugby on Saturday night, but objected to being filmed or photographed while eating.
"Do you do this to normal people?'' she asked.
Phillips was previously romantically linked to former All Black Caleb Ralph.
Back home in Britain the England team was on the front page of British tabloids today amid allegations of sexual misconduct after Saturday's test loss in Auckland.
Auckland police have confirmed that an investigation is under way into allegations against four players, but no formal complaint had been made.
The players have not been named.
The Sun tabloid reported today that a Kiwi beauty had accused two England rugby stars of rape after having sex with them willingly.
Citing sources within the England camp, The Sun said reported that the players insisted the woman "was totally up for it.”
They said the 18-year-old girl had been eager to have sex with one man in his Hilton Hotel suite.
And they claimed she did not object when his pal arrived from the next room to join in.
Two more England aces were quizzed after it was said they saw sex acts involving the girl.
The Sun reported an Englad rugby source as saying: "Two players admitted three-in-a-bed sex with the girl.
"She’d pursued them from the start and phoned the Hilton to find where they were drinking."
The players all claim the girl was calm and in good spirits when she left early on Sunday.
But hours later team chiefs had a call from police revealing a "serious allegation" of a sex attack had been made.
