Prince William and Kate Middleton use poignant photo for 2024 Christmas card with kids

Prince William and Kate Middleton chose a poignant photo for their 2024 Christmas card.

The Prince and Princess of Wales, both 42, took to social media Thursday to share the digital card, which featured an emotive photo of them with their three children in Norfolk, England, where Middleton recovered from cancer earlier this year.

In the snap, William sat next to his wife while wrapping his arm around his youngest son, Prince Louis, 6.

Middleton — who had one arm over her husband’s knee — leaned in to their daughter, Princess Charlotte, 9, who embraced her big brother, Prince George, 11.

“Wishing you a very Happy Christmas and New Year,” the card read.

The photo featured in the card was first released to the public in September when Middleton announced she had completed her chemotherapy for an undisclosed cancer.

The Waleses have had plenty to celebrate recently, as the mom of three managed to return to her royal duties after sitting out most of the year due to her cancer battle and abdominal surgery.

In March, Middleton was forced to come clean about her battle after months of speculation over her health. Although she never disclosed what type of cancer she had, she revealed in September that she had completed her treatment.

The family plans to join the rest of the royals for a Christmas celebration, including a 45-person guest list.

Their holiday card comes just days after Prince Harry and Meghan Markle shared their own.

On Monday, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex wished their followers and fans a merry Christmas while giving a rare look at their two children.

The digital card featured six photos, one of which showed Prince Archie, 5, and Princess Lilibet, 3.

In the sweet snap, Lilibet ran toward her dad, who knelt with his arms open for a hug, while Archie approached Markle’s open arms while surrounded by their three dogs.

The Sussexes — who recently shut down divorce rumors — have been estranged from the royal family after stepping down from their roles in 2020. Shortly after, they accused his relatives of questioning their son’s skin color before he was born.
