Prince Harry<\/a><\/strong>and Meghan Markle<\/a><\/strong> are spreading joy and cheer with their family Christmas card.<\/p>\n

As the Duke and Duchess of Sussex prepare to celebrate Archie Harrison<\/a><\/strong>‘s first Christmas, they’re sending warm wishes to their friends, family, colleagues and more with the cutest Christmas card ever.<\/a> Archie Harrison crawls front and center for the adorable black and white pic, with his parents looking lovingly upon him in the background.<\/p>\n

According to royal reporter,<\/a> Omid Scobie<\/strong>, the candid photo was taken by the Duchess’ good friend and actress Janina Gavankar<\/strong>, and was turned into a GIF so people could see twinkling glitter. It was also sent to all recipients in an e-card form in order to be more environmentally friendly. <\/p>\n

The royal family has been taking Christmas photos since the beginning of the 20th century, so Meghan and Harry’s card is hardly revolutionary. That being said, this modern greeting signifies a new era for the royal family. After all, this is<\/em> the first time a greeting’s been sent in GIF form. <\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n
