While Beatrice's wedding took the top spots among the royal family's best nine photos of 2020, royal fans also loved the portrait of the Queen and the Duke of Edinburgh looking at a handmade card from their great-grandchildren, Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis, on their 73rd wedding anniversary in November.
