Prince Harry and Meghan, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, have released their 2024 Christmas card, featuring a rare glimpse of their children, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet, CNN reports.

The card, released on Monday, includes a collage of images from throughout the year.

One photograph shows the Duke and Duchess crouching down with arms outstretched as Archie, 5, and Lilibet, 3, run towards them, their faces obscured. The other five images depict various engagements from the year.

The card includes a message wishing recipients a happy holiday season and a joyful new year, signed on behalf of the couple’s various organizations, including Archewell Productions and Foundation.

This marks the first time since 2021 that the Sussexes have included their children in their public Christmas card, reflecting their commitment to protecting their children’s privacy. The couple reportedly sent a separate, private card to close family and friends.

Other members of the Royal Family have also released their Christmas cards. King Charles and Queen Camilla chose a casual photo taken in April at Buckingham Palace, while Princess Anne selected an image of herself and husband Vice-Admiral Tim Laurence in a carriage during a June procession.
