Prince William and Kate Middleton are getting into the holiday spirit.
On Tuesday, the Prince and Princess of Wales shared a new photo of their family — including their kids Prince George, 9, Princess Charlotte, 7, and Prince Louis, 4 — for their 2022 Christmas card.
“Sharing a new picture of the family for this year’s Christmas card!” they captioned the new snap, posted on their social media account.
The picture, which was shot by Matt Porteous earlier this year at their home in Norfolk, England, shows the family of five holding hands as they take a stroll outside in their casual outfits.
William, 40 and Middleton, also 40, wore blue jeans with long-sleeved shirts, while their children opted to pair their shorts with short-sleeved shirts.
In recent years, the family has chosen to be more relaxed for their holiday pictures.
Last year, Prince William, Middleton and their children posed during a private family trip to Jordan. The mom of three and Charlotte wore dresses, while William, George and Louis wore polo shirts and shorts.
And in 2020, the family sat on haystacks as they looked cozy in sweaters next to each other.
The last formal holiday picture that the family Prince and Princess of Wales took with their children was photographed in 2017 at Kensington Palace.
Their new holiday card brings a little joy after what was a tough year for the royal family.
After William’s grandmother, Queen Elizabeth II, passed away at age 96 on Sept. 8, his father, King Charles III, ascended to the throne.
This will be the first Christmas the family will spend together since Her Majesty’s death. Previously, the royal family gathered together to spend Christmas at Sandringham House, which was the home of the late monarch.
The royal family has not revealed where they spend the holiday this year. It’s also unclear if Williams’ brother Prince Harry and his wife, Meghan Markle, will be in attendance this year following the release of their bombshell docuseries, which takes aim at the British press and their relationship with the royal family.
