Prince Harry and Meghan Markle gave the world an early gift on Thursday, the eve of Christmas Eve: their first official family holiday card featuring baby Lilibet Diana.

The photo – shot by Alexi Lubomirski over the summer at the royal couple’s home in Santa Barbara – features Harry balancing son Archie on his leg while Meghan lifts daughter Lilibet into the air. Both parents are beaming in matching denim outfits.

Until now, the Sussexes had not released a photo of Lilibet Diana – named after her great grandmother and late grandmother – since she was born in June.

Archie was born in May 2019 and has grown into a toddler with a head full of red hair – just like his father.
