All the royals have official dropped their 2025 Christmas card, and fans are loving the turnout this year. It seems both the Prince and Princess of Wales and the Duke of Duchess of Sussex were inspired by nature and greenery this year, with the Wales family sitting in a grassy field of flowers and the Sussex family standing on a small bridge above a stream in a sunlight forest. Needless to say, royal fans have a lot of commentary. Keep reading for more information.

Meghan Markle & Prince Harry’s Christmas Card

Two days ago, Kate Middleton and Prince William shared their holiday card: a stunning shot of their family sitting in a grassy field speckled with white and yellow daffodils. Prince Louis, 7, sits in his father’s lap with a toothless grin, with Princess Charlotte, 10, resting her head on Prince William’s shoulder. Princess Catherine sits on William’s other side, smiling with an arm around Prince George, 12. Their holiday message was simple and sweet: “Wishing everyone a very Happy Christmas.”

Meghan Markle and Prince Harry opted for a more whimsical approach to their holiday card: situated in what looks to be a woodland forest parted by a small stream. The family of four stands on a little wooden bridge, with little Prince Archie, 6, wrapping his arms around Prince Harry’s waist and gazing up at him, and Princess Lilibet, 4, pressing her forehead against Meghan Markle’s, who’s bending down to her daughter’s height. Their holiday message was also quick to the point: “Happy Holidays! From our family to yours.”

Social Media Reactions

Royal fans are loving this year’s Christmas cards and are sure to share with the families on social media. “Merry Christmas to the most beautiful inspiring family!” one fan wrote on the Wales’ Instagram page.

“Gorgeous photo!” another person posted. “Happy Christmas!”

“What a beautiful photo!” added another fan. “I absolutely love it. Thank you so much for this wonderful surprise today! Merry Christmas!”
