1. Hide that image on your timeline

Step 3: Select the photo you want to hide. As you look through the photos, if you see one that you want to hide, hover over it and click the pencil icon that appears. Select ' Hide from timeline ' Repeat as many times as you want.

Note that this process will work, to some extent, for photos you've already tagged. However, you do not have complete control of the photos because you are not the one who uploaded them.
