Part of one of the most famous families in the world, Prince William and his wife Kate Middleton are no strangers to press intrusion and paprazzi enthusiasm, but it seems the much-loved royal couple have decided to draw a line this year.

Following the birth of their second child, Princess Charlotte, the popular couple have spoken of their dismay at the lengths paparazzi have gone to in order to secure a shot of the famous family, saying: "The tactics being used are increasingly dangerous."

In an effort to curb this conduct over the festive season, Prince George and Princess Charlotte's parents have decided to enforce a no-fly zone over their new home in order to ensure privacy over Christmas.

Having been granted permission by the Civil Aviation Authority, the couple have restricted all aircrafts, including drones, from coming within 1.5 miles off their Norfolk home over the course of the next three months.
 


Confirming the new measures and supporting the action, officials at the Department for Transport have acknowledged the royal family's need for increased security.

However, it is understood that there are some exceptions to the rule, with East Anglian Air Ambulance and the Maritime and Coastguard Agency being given permission to flout the no-fly zone which will be implemented next month.

The measures, which forbid aircrafts from flying below 2,000 feet within the no-fly zone, will also protect extended family who are due to spend time in Anmer Hall for Princess Charlotte's first Christmas.
