The Wessexes’ Christmas
card was revealed on Sunday via social media – and it’s such a gorgeous scene!
The
photo, which was taken outdoors at Forfar Golf Club back in June, shows Edward
in a fetching Forfar tweed kilt and matching teal socks, with a blue shirt and
light brown jacket.
Sophie, meanwhile, looked as stunning as ever
in a long black floral print dress
and black blazer, which she accessorized with neutral heels and a teal
clutch bag. Her hair was swept back into a ponytail. Like her husband, the
Countess beamed at the camera.
The
inside of the couple’s card reads: “Wishing you a Merry Christmas and a
Happy New Year.”
The card was shared on Twitter by the photographer,
and royal fans rushed to share
their approval for the image, with their comments including: “What
a lovely calming picture” and: “Lovely photo!”
Delighted The Earl and
Countess of Wessex chose my picture for their Christmas Card this year.The
picture was taken on a visit to Forfar Golf Club where the Earl made his debut
in Forfar Tartan.
The royal family always delight with their
Christmas cards, and the Cambridges did so earlier this month, as their festive
greeting included a heartwarming family photo taken with their three
children when they took a trip to Jordan.
Posting
the image to their social media accounts last week, the accompanying message
read: “Delighted to share a new image of the family, which features on
this year’s Christmas card.”
Christmas isn’t the
only reason for the Wessexes to celebrate this year, however – they also mark the birthday of
their youngest child. James, Viscount Severn, who is the Queen’s youngest grandchild,
turned 14 on Friday 17 December.
