Prince Harry and Duchess Meghan: Christmas card with a rare family picture

The Christmas card from Prince Harry (40) and his wife Duchess Meghan (43) is here. This year’s contemplative message from the couple is accompanied by a series of photos. , the dark green card reads in light font: “On behalf of the Office of Prince Harry and Meghan, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, Archewell Productions and the Archewell Foundation, we wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.”

The photos show Prince Harry and Duchess Meghan during their trips to Nigeria and Colombia this year. In one picture a little girl hugs Meghan, in another the couple can be seen arm in arm having an intimate moment. And there is also a rare family snapshot among the photos. Archie (5) and Lilibet (3) then run into their parents’ arms. Three dogs can be seen next to it and a green area in the background.

Photos of Archie and Lilibet are rarely published anymore. Prince Harry is said to insist on protecting the children’s private lives and keeping them out of the spotlight. According to Insider, he was greatly influenced by growing up in front of the eyes of the world and wants to protect his own children from the same fate. In their Netflix documentary “Harry & Meghan,” which was released in December 2022, the two children were shown in a few short scenes.

In the past two years, the Christmas cards have also been designed without a family picture, but with a picture of the couple. In 2023, the photo showed the two of them at the closing ceremony during the Invictus Games in Düsseldorf. In 2022, it was a black and white photo of the couple at the Robert F. Kennedy Ripple of Hope Award Gala in New York City. In 2021, Prince Harry and Meghan still used their card to show their daughter’s first photo. In 2019, Baby Archie greeted his parents with a Christmas card, and in 2020 the two sent a family picture of the three of them as an illustration.
