In his recent outings, the Prince of Wales has eliminated late Queen Elizabeth "no selfie" rule in an attempt to make the Royal Family more approachable and friendly.

The Express's royal editor, Emily Ferguson shared her thoughts on William's modern style, noting, "William appears to be taking a new approach to public engagements."

While discussing his recent trip to Estonia, which took place on March 21, 2025, Ferguson added, "On the first day of his trip, he fully embraced the crowds and appeared to revel in the dozens of request for selfies, happily taking people's phones to take the snap himself."
