Prince Louis Holding Kate's Hand in Their Christmas Card Is So Pure
Prince William and Kate Middleton have released their 2018 family Christmas card, and the royal clan looks cuter than ever. Most notably, it's the group's first holiday greeting with the youngest member of the family, seven-month-old Prince Louis.
The fifth in line to the throne is impossibly adorable, showing off a tiny royal smile as he poses in his mother's arms. (He actually looks a lot like Kate did when she was a baby.) His little fall outfit is too charming, with a baby blue sweater paired with bloomers, tights, and shoes. His older siblings are stars too, with five-year-old Prince George goofily standing on one leg, and three-year-old Princess Charlotte cuddling up with her dad.
However, the best part about Louis' rare appearance may be that he's holding Kate's hand in the photo. The mother-son gesture is subtle but sweet, and yet another reason to be obsessed with the Cambridges' Christmas card.
We've previously seen the royal baby have a heartfelt hand-holding moment in his christening portraits, which were taken in July. In the family photos-which also include Prince Harry, Meghan Markle, Prince Charles, and Duchess Camilla-Princess Charlotte is front and center, taking her little brother's hand.
Louis also had some sweet bonding moments with his grandfather, Prince Charles, for his 70th birthday portraits, released in November. In one photo, the little one holds onto his grandpa's hands in the gardens of Clarence House.
Since Prince Louis was born in April, most of his appearances have been through official portraits like the ones above. But will he make a cameo with the royal family in Sandringham on Christmas Day? Kate recently revealed that Louis is working on his royal wave; maybe we'll get a hint of that the next time he's in public.
