As a more-or-less public figure she had no real expectation of privacy there or elsewhere.
Gotta wonder about the lawyer that handled the case for her, though...
I suspect he got paid upfront.
I agree that as a public figure she can't claim as much privacy as the average person, but everyone is entitled to some privacy. Not about her age perhaps, but there are some common sense limits even for public figures.
