King Charles has a very specific, very old-fashioned, Christmas ban in place as his family gather to spend the festive period at Sandringham together.
Every year, the royals gather at their Sandringham estate in Norfolk over the festive season. King Charles and Camilla, Prince William and Kate, and their three children will all be there. Whilst this will be an enjoyable and memorable occasion for the royals, it will also see the elderly oldest generations of the royals spending loving moments with the youngest.
Whilst both will cherish this, there may be some differences of opinion on some matters which has seemingly led to King Charles reportedly introducing a rather old-fashioned and rogue Christmas ban. Ok! have reported that the royal has banned the posting of selfies, instead insisting only carefully controlled, professionally shot photos and videos are shared.
According to a well-placed source, only royals with official social media accounts will be able to post during the festivities and any other photographs or videos will be shot by a professional and approved by the Buckingham Palace communications team. The source said: "It’s been made very clear that there will be no mobile phones, photographs or selfies taken at the lunch table this year. Only controlled and approved images will see the light of day from the celebrations."

“There will be a lot of teenagers in attendance this year who are very mobile-friendly. It sounds rather funny, but the truth of the matter is they don’t want a photo of the King trying to squeeze a roast potato into his mouth appearing on social media," the source said.
"Not only will there be extended members of the family in attendance but also complete outsiders, so it’s very important to ensure that no unexpected photos or videos appear online."
This comes as disgraced royal Prince Andrew broke cover to attend a recent royal Christmas part as he faces more accusations of sexual assault. The disgraced Duke was welcome at The Firm's festive celebrations today after Johanna Sjoberg, 42, has accused him of groping her. The alleged sexual assault was said to have taken place at Jeffrey Epstein’s New York mansion back in March 2001, according to deposition comments, The Sun reported. Prince Andrew denies the allegations.
However, as Andrew tries to pretend it is business as usual, Judge Loretta Preska has ruled that material related to Ms Sjoberg should be unsealed in two weeks time. This has set another ticking time bomb over the Duke’s already stained reputation.
Andrew was warmly welcomed at the King’s family party at Windsor Castle and he was snapped arriving. He had previously missed family events after past accusations, and denies all wrongdoing. This all comes as a federal judge in the US has ordered the public disclosure of the identities of more than 150 people mentioned in court documents related to Andrew’s former friend, Jeffrey Epstein.
