The Royal Family Makes Everybody Sign Ironclad NDAs

You don’t see a lot of former or current royal staff going on the record to talk about The Firm. Even skincare specialist Deborah Mitchell, aesthetician to Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall, is afraid of getting in trouble. Simply sharing anecdotes, like the time the possible future queen herself made her a cup of coffee, makes her worry a bit.

Palace insider Philippa Smith said that the royal family makes their staff sign strict non-disclosure agreements (NDAs). Of course, this doesn’t prevent some of them from sending anonymous tips to the tabloids, especially when the drama heightens among family members.
