Prince William and Catherine, Princess of Wales, have revealed their 2024 Christmas card.
William and the former Kate Middleton smile with their arms around their three children, Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis, in a photo shared on Instagram on Dec. 19.
“Wishing you a very Happy Christmas and New Year,” their card reads.
The couple also shared a message with their followers in the caption of their post: “Wishing everyone a very happy Christmas š”
The picture included in their card appears to be a still from the video the family released when Kate announced the end of her chemotherapy treatment in September.
Kate first announced in a video shared in March she had been diagnosed with cancer after undergoing a planned abdominal surgery.
āAt the time, it was thought that my condition was noncancerous,ā she said in the clip. āThe surgery was successful. However, tests after the operation found cancer had been present.ā
In June, she gave an update on her treatment, saying she had a few more months of chemotherapy to go and that she was “not out of the woods.”
Kate attended Trooping the Colour in June and Wimbledon in July, and in September, she announced she had completed her chemotherapy treatments.
“The last nine months have been incredibly tough for us as a family,” she said in her video. “Life as you know it can change in an instant and we have had to find a way to navigate the stormy waters and road unknown.”
During a trip to South Africa in November, William told reporters that 2024 had been “brutal.”
āHonestly, itās been dreadful,ā he said, according toĀ Sky News. āItās probably been the hardest year in my life. So, trying to get through everything else and keep everything on track has been really difficult.ā
āBut Iām so proud of my wife, Iām proud of my father, for handling the things that they have done,ā he continued.
