The charming card captures the couple beaming at the closing ceremony of the Invictus Games held in Germany, excluding their children, Prince Archie, 4, and Princess Lilibet, 2, from the frame, maintaining a focus on the couple’s joyous moment.
Contrasting Royal Cards
In a week marked by festive greetings, the Royal Family also shared their Christmas cards. The King and Queen chose a Coronation photograph for their card, while Prince William and Kate presented a relaxed, black and white photo featuring their three children, exuding a more casual atmosphere.

Brand Challenges Amidst Fallout
Despite their festive gestures, the Sussexes faced challenges linked to the fallout from Omid Scobie’s controversial book, ‘Endgame,’ which stirred controversy within royal circles and prompted concerns about their brand image.
Career Implications and Professional Decisions
Meghan Markle’s recent association with WME mega-agent Ari Emanuel, coupled with the fallout from ‘Endgame,’ raises concerns about her brand’s image, potentially impacting her career trajectory and connections within the entertainment industry.
