King Charles has been shielding Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie from any impact of the sanctions on their father, Prince Andrew.
The King is keen to “protect” his nieces who remain Her Royal Highnesses as granddaughters of Queen Elizabeth II.
Despite the measures the King has taken against Prince Andrew and Sarah Ferguson, including banning them from upcoming Christmas celebrations, he is keen for Beatrice and Eugenie to feel welcome at family gatherings.
A source told the Mail: “He wouldn't have wanted to sign off on anything that would impact them.”

Prince Andrew agreed to give up the use of his title as the Duke of York in light of "continued accusations" against him.
The King's younger brother's decision came amid intense public scrutiny concerning his friendship with the late convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.
Andrew also surrendered his membership of the Order of the Garter.
However, he will remain a prince as he is the son of the late Queen Elizabeth II.

It comes as a source has claimed that King Charles threatened to publicly strip Prince Andrew of his royal titles if his brother did not give them up.
The King made clear he would take "further action" if his brother refused to give up his dukedom and other honours after further links between the disgraced prince and Jeffrey Epstein emerged.
The monarch felt that the situation was "intolerable" for the rest of the Royal Family.
King Charles would have to go through Parliament to legally strip Andrew of his titles.

He has previously been reluctant to choose that route but last week he made clear to Prince Andrew that it would be an option if he did not relinquish his titles.
A source told the Mail: "The thought of him still continuing to use the titles and honours that had been conferred upon him for another day, month or year while other options were explored and enactioned was intolerable, for the sake of the wider family.
"And at last, for the wider good, Andrew saw sense."
Prince Andrew said in a statement released by Buckingham Palace on Friday: "In discussion with The King, and my immediate and wider family, we have concluded the continued accusations about me distract from the work of His Majesty and the Royal Family.
"I have decided, as I always have, to put my duty to my family and country first. I stand by my decision five years ago to stand back from public life.
"With His Majesty’s agreement, we feel I must now go a step further. I will therefore no longer use my title or the honours which have been conferred upon me.
"As I have said previously, I vigorously deny the accusations against me."
