Gary Goldsmith - the uncle of the Duchess of Cambridge - Kate Middleton reportedly received a stern warning from his sister, Carole Middleton, concerning his forthcoming appearance on Celebrity Big Brother.
Amid concerns about potential stress on the recovering princess, Gary has been urged to refrain from divulging any sensitive family matters during his television debut.
The Sun reports that Carole and Michael Middleton, parents of the Duchess, have expressed their disapproval of Gary's decision to enter the reality television show, fearing its potential impact on Kate's well-being.
Sources close to the family have revealed that Gary has indeed been "read the riot act" by his sister Carole, who is purportedly "furious" over his participation.
Gary Goldsmith, a wealthy businessman renowned for his successful recruitment ventures, was seen engaging in last-minute preparations before his anticipated appearance on the show.
His involvement in Celebrity Big Brother follows previous speculation regarding a book release, purportedly intended to counter claims made against Prince William and Kate Middleton in Prince Harry's memoir, "Spare."
The timing of Gary's television venture comes at a sensitive period, with the Duchess currently recuperating from abdominal surgery in Adelaide Cottage. The family's concerns have intensified amidst Kate's seclusion from public view, with updates on her health being provided solely by Kensington Palace.
While it remains unclear whether Gary intends to shed light on his niece's health during his television stint or to steer clear of royal matters altogether, the Middleton family's apprehension underscores the delicate balance between personal privacy and public scrutiny in royal circles.
