Feast Your Eyes Upon Every Royal Family Christmas Card We Could Get Our Hands On
2005
Charles and Camilla used this photo from their wedding as their official card in 2005—and psst: if you're wondering who those people next to Camilla are, they're her kids Laura Lopes and Tom Parker Bowles.
1914
A very casual Christmas card from Queen Mary and King George to the British troops. Truly, the Christmas haunting CHEER is evident!
1942
Yep, that cute little girl is then-Princess Elizabeth—who went on to become Queen Elizabeth, aka Prince Charles' mom, double aka Prince Harry and Prince William's grandma. This is her holiday card to the Grenadier Guards regiment of the British Army, in case you're curious!
1969 & 1979
What, you don't pose with your boat at Christmas?
1987
Confused about why my family's photos from the 1980s didn't turn out this cute? I demand a re-do.
1991 & 1997
This 1991 Christmas card (top) was taken five years before Charles and Diana's divorce in 1996. Sadly, the 1997 card was sent out the year Diana tragically died in a car crash in late August.
1999
Here's a look at Prince Charles' personal Christmas card from 1999, featuring him with Harry, William, and a striking pair of knee-high leather boots.
2012
Charles and Camilla went super OFFICIAL for the 2012 photos, subtly reminding everyone that they are, in fact, royal. In case you forgot!
2013
I can only assume that the decided upon theme of this one was "hats."
2014
Look, Charles and Camilla release a lot of holiday cards and love nothing more than staging them in Christmas trees and then sharing them with the world. It is what it is!!!
2015
This year, Charles and Camilla decided to give their card recipients a slightly more intimate look at their 'ship. Love a royal PDA moment!
2015
Kate and Wills also got into the Christmas card spirit in 2015, releasing this cuteness into the world.
2016
Charles and Camilla chose a pic of their royal tour of Croatia in 2016, and yes: they once again shoved the card in a Christmas tree for good measure.
2017
This official portrait of the Cambridges was taken at Kensington Palace and couldn't be more the opposite of their vibe in 2018, so stay tuned.
2017
Sorry, not done with Charles and Camilla in a tree yet! Here's the royal couple at Camilla's private 70th birthday party, which none of us were invited to.
2018
Yep, still happening.
2018
Behold, a magical photo of Meghan and Harry watching fireworks at their wedding. The perfect first Christmas card for this cute couple.
2018
This delightful family photo of the Cambridges was taken at their country home, where they go to take a break from, like, the palace, I guess.
2019
Believe it or not, Meghan was accused of photoshopping this photo. Obviously, that was NOT the case.
2019
Honestly alarmed this isn't in a tree, but here's to hoping they enshrine themselves in some shrubbery this year!
Charles and Camilla simply can't stop doing the most.
