THE Duchess of Sussex hiding her children's faces is a money-making scheme, according to a royal expert.

Meghan posted a montage of her family as they went to the Californian theme park to celebrate Lilibet's fourth birthday.
The video on Instagram showed both her and Prince Harry beaming as they tackled various rides and sported Mickey Mouse ears.
But the ex-Suits actress covered up both Archie, five, and Lilibet's faces with emojis and purposefully took other shots angled from behind.
She captioned the video: "Thank you @disneyland for giving our family two days of pure joy!"
The Sun's Royal photographer Arthur Edwards slammed Meghan's post as a "money-making scheme".
Speaking on The Sun's Royal Exclusive show, he said: "I don't know why we can't see the children's faces.
"I think she's obviously got some sort of scheme there where she might want some money ties on one day, I don't know.
"But those children, I feel sorry for them really. I mean, they've got cousins here, they're never going to meet and never going to play with.
"There's palaces here and castles here that they could enjoy as well and spend summer holidays with their cousins. I feel really sorry for them, cooped up in that place.
"Will we ever see their faces? I don't know, maybe one day she'll produce a calendar or something of her children's faces and that'll be sort of another Meghan special."
The footage starts with Lilibet excitedly dragging her dad through the park entrance before she is given a special greeting by a Disney princess.
Next, the whole family are seen on a log flume and then the four-year-old appears on a Dumbo ride.
It was reminiscent of photos taken of the Duke when he was eight and his mother Diana took him and William to Walt Disney World in Florida in 1993.
The trio also took a trip to UK-theme park Alton Towers the following year.
Chris Ship, ITV Royal Editor, added: "If you want to put your kids on social media, that's absolutely fine, you're taking that responsibility as a parent.
"You've also got every right to keep them private and not put them on.
"I just don't really like this, here's a picture of my kid, I'm going to put a big emoji over their face so you can't see because that's me protecting their privacy.
"I'd rather not see them at all, if you want to protect them, rather than show them the corner of their ear in a photo."
