A royal tradition.
Prince William and Kate Middleton released their 2025 family Christmas card on Thursday, giving a glimpse of their grown-up children Prince George, 12, Princess Charlotte, 10, and Prince Louis, 7.
In the photo, which was shot by British photographer Josh Shinner, the royal couple posed with their kids in the grass.
Louis showed off his toothless smile as he sweetly sat in his dad’s lap, while Charlotte rested her head on William’s shoulder.
The trio all matched in green, with William’s look including a green sweater, light blue collared shirt and dark blue jeans.
George, meanwhile, rested his hands on his knees as Middleton, 43, wrapped one of her arms around her oldest child.
The Princess of Wales wore a brown sweater shirt that matched George’s vest.
“Wishing everyone a very Happy Christmas,” Middleton and William, 43, captioned the Instagram of their family photo.
The future queen previously posted two pictures from the same photoshoot for a Father’s Day tribute to William in June.
In the first snap, William’s three children all posed with him, while they playfully piled on top of him under a cherry tree in the second photo.
Ahead of Christmas, the royal family has been participating in their holiday traditions including Middleton’s “Together at Christmas” carol service that was held at Westminster Abbey in London on Dec. 5.
William and his sons matched in navy suits at the event, while Charlotte wore a navy blue collared dress and Middleton sported an evergreen coat.
The event was held at the same location where the prince and princess tied the knot in 2011.
“So special to come together this evening for this year’s ‘Together at Christmas’ Carol Service,” the royal family penned on Instagram. “Grateful to everyone who helped make it such a warm and memorable celebration of love at Christmas.”
William and Middleton had a less festive holiday season last year, when they decided to skip the annual royal family pre-Christmas lunch.
However, the couple and their kids did participate in the Christmas morning mass at Sandringham Church with other royals, including King Charles and Queen Camilla.
At the time, Middleton was three-months cancer free, after having initially announced her diagnosis in early 2024.
The princess was forced to take a break from her royal duties for most of last year as she underwent chemotherapy.
“I cannot tell you what a relief it is to have finally completed my chemotherapy treatment,” Middleton wrote in a statement on X in Sept. 2024.
“Doing what I can to stay cancer-free is now my focus. Although I have finished chemotherapy, my path to healing and full recovery is long, and I must continue to take each day as it comes,” she added.
