The Duke and Duchess of Sussex - who now live in California with their two children - wished everyone a "happy holiday season".

The seasonal greeting card shows them applauding side-by-side and beaming with smiles at the closing ceremony of the Invictus Games in Dusseldorf, Germany, back in September.

Meghan is pictured in a green top as she smiles with Harry, styled in a black shirt and suit. The picture is bordered in green banners, matching the Duchess' outfit.

The card is issued on behalf of their business Archewell Productions and their charitable arm the Archewell Foundation.

Christmas images used to decorate official festive cards are regularly released by senior members of the royal family with the cards sent to friends, family and colleagues. Harry and Meghan have maintained this tradition as they continue their non-working Royal life in the US.
