This year, the family kept things more formal than in years past with their coordinating outfits and Prince William’s dapper suit. In 2015, the family went for a more casual and outdoor photo, and just last year, the family used a photo from their week-long tour of Canada for their holiday greeting.
William and Kate weren’t the only ones to reveal their holiday card. Prince Charles and Duchess Camilla also gave fans a sneak peek at their official Christmas card on Monday.
“Here is this year’s official Christmas card from The Prince of Wales and The Duchess of Cornwall. The photograph was taken by Hugo Burnand at Highgrove in July during the private 70th Birthday party of The Duchess of Cornwall,” Clarence House wrote on Twitter, debuting the card.

The family is expected to spend Christmas with Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip at their private estate at Sandringham in Norfolk, England.
“The Queen and members of the Royal Family will attend the Morning Service on Christmas Day at Sandringham Church,” Buckingham Palace said in a statement last week. William and Kate will be joined by newly engaged Prince Harry and Meghan Markle for the holiday.
