Prince William's father Prince Charles also handed out his annual Christmas greeting, featuring a cuddly shot of himself and wife Camilla taken by a friend this summer in Scotland.

The interior of the card shares a simple 'Happy Christmas' message.

King Felipe VI and Queen Letizia of Spain's card features their gorgeous daughters, Princess Leonor, 10, and 8-year-old Princess Sofia.

Inside, the two sisters have proudly signed their names and titles under their parents' signatures. The message on the card reads: "Every day we have reason to find hope and peace in our hearts. We hope that the goodwill of Christmas will always light our way."
