The Duke of Sussex has made an unprecedented decision in the British royal family regarding the privacy of his children.
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have put an unexpected twist on the traditional way the British royal family has handled the privacy of its youngest members.
According to sources close to the couple, the Duke of Sussex has decided not to publish any more photos of his children, Archie and Lilibet, on social media. This determination responds to the prince's wish that his children can grow up in a more "normal" way, away from the constant public exposure to which other royal grandchildren, such as George and Charlotte, children of Prince William and Kate, have been subjected. Middleton.
"Prince Harry has not only prohibited sharing images of his children, but will only allow them to participate in institutional events that are truly relevant to the monarchy, and always accompanied by Meghan and him," reveal the sources cited by the British newspaper The Sunday. Times.
This decision by King Charles' second son represents a move away from the royal family's tradition of regularly sharing images of children at key moments, such as the first day of school or special events.

"So, we can forget about seeing them posed at school, as has happened with their cousins George or Charlotte, the children of William and Kate Middleton," say the sources consulted.
Now, it remains to be seen if Meghan and Prince Harry will remain firm in this position or if they will finally give in to the temptation of sharing some images of their children with the world. At the moment, it seems that the couple is determined to protect Archie and Lilibet's privacy at all costs.
