The Sussexes were not the only royals to share festive wishes this season. Earlier in December, King Charles and Queen Camilla released their official Christmas card for 2025. The image chosen was a portrait taken in April during celebrations marking their twentieth wedding anniversary.

The photograph shows the King and Queen standing together in the gardens of Villa Wolkonsky, the British ambassador’s residence in Rome. Queen Camilla links her arm through the King’s, with the image framed by a deep red border. Inside the card, a matching message reads: “Wishing you a very Happy Christmas and New Year.”

Together, the releases offered a glimpse into how different branches of the royal family continue to mark the festive season, each in their own distinctive way.
