Last year, the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge shared an image from their home in Norfolk on their official Christmas card.
Prince Louis, sat with his family on some bales of straw, was easily the centre of attention, bearing a cheeky grin.
If the couple were to decide to release a new photo for a card this year, it is expected that their children – Prince George, now eight, Princess Charlotte, six, and Prince Louis, three – would once again steal the limelight.
The family’s card from 2019, seen in a photo from that year of the Queen sat behind her desk at Windsor Castle, showed parents and children posing around a vintage motorbike and sidecar.
Prince Charles and Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall are also renowned for sharing images from their official Christmas cards.
Their 2019 Christmas card showed the couple driving a vintage MG TD while on tour in Cuba.
Perhaps unsurprisingly, their 2020 card was much more subdued.
In this, the couple can be seen sitting in casual wear in the early autumn at Birkhall, Scotland.

This, of course, depends on the Queen’s health over the Christmas period.
Following medical advice, the Queen has been forced to pull out of some recent royal engagements.
Despite this, she did attend the christenings of her latest two great-grandsons on Sunday.
The Royal Family’s full Christmas plans are likely to be confirmed in due course.
