Prince William and Kate Middleton release Christmas card photo 2021 - and it couldn't be more adorable
Prince William and Kate Middleton’s Christmas card photo 2021 has finally been released and it’s just as adorable as we imagined.
- The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge have posted their highly-anticipated Christmas card photo and it’s very different from last year’s snap.
- The Christmas card photo 2021 features all three of their young children and appears to have been taken during a wonderful family holiday.
- This royal news comes as Kate Middleton and Prince William’s ‘strict’ parenting regime keeps George, Charlotte and Louis hidden.
Each year anticipation builds as fans prepare to see stunning new family photos from members of The Firm in honour of the festive season. Featured on Christmas cards from the royals, the photos give a rare glimpse into family life and the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge’s picture is one of the most eagerly awaited. Now William and Kate’s Christmas card photo 2021 has been shared on social media and it's everything fans could've been hoping for!
In their caption, the Cambridges declared simply, ‘Delighted to share a new image of the family, which features on this year’s Christmas card 🎄’.
The Christmas card photo shows the family gathered together, Kate and William resting one hand on the other's knee. To Kate’s left sits their eldest son, Prince George, beaming and wearing a camo-patterned shirt that appears to be similar to the one he wore in his 8th birthday picture.
Princess Charlotte sits beside their proud dad wearing an adorable blue-and-white checked dress with a very on-trend smocked bodice. Whilst their younger brother Prince Louis sits cross-legged and excited at his parent’s feet on a fluffy rug.
Each of the Cambridges are wearing warm-weather clothes, with William in shorts and Kate opting for a beautiful olive-green shirt dress. And she seems to have utilised her frizz-free hair styling secret as her long hair appeared sleek in loose waves.
It’s not known where exactly William and Kate’s Christmas card photo 2021 was taken, though it was reportedly snapped in Jordan. This is not only Kate Middleton’s childhood home, but where the Cambridges reportedly enjoyed a relaxing half-term holiday earlier this year.
