KATE and William put on a festive show of unity for their Christmas card released last night.
The smiling family-of-five are pictured on a happy day out in the British countryside in Norfolk this summer.
The Prince and Princess of Wales and their family for their Christmas card this year
They are seen walking hand-in-hand in the sunshine in a touching snap which will adorn the family’s Christmas cards this year.
William, 40, is seen in a blue shirt and jeans holding hands with nine-year-old Prince George, in a polo t-shirt and shorts.
George is holding hands with a smiling seven-year-old Charlotte who in turn is next to Louis, four, in a striped polo t-shirt.
Mum Kate, 40, dresses down in jeans, pumps and a white blouse.
The picture was taken by photographer Matt Porteous, who also joined the couple on their tour to the Caribbean.
The united front comes amid Harry and Meghan’s divisive attacks on the Royal Family including claims “lies” were told to protect William.
The King and Queen Consort shared their offering on Sunday which showed the smiling pair at the Braemar Royal Highland Gathering in September.
But this has sparked controversy as some have pointed out that his children and grandchildren are missing from the picture.
Some have speculated the absence of Prince William and the Duke of Sussex is down to their ongoing rift amid Harry and Meghan’s recent Netflix release.
Adam Helliker, one of the three royal experts who shared their thoughts with HOAR Online, said: “It symbolises a sense of continuity solidness with the just the two of them standing together and ignores squabbling children and grandchildren.
“I mean who would be on it with him, Prince William, and Kate with Harry and Meghan? It would have been too much pressure, it would have looked really forced and awkward.
“It’s symbolising a sense of stability and a rosey future.”
