Royal Christmas cards don't always feature festive scenes like the elegant photos of Prince Albert, Princess Charlene and their twins around the Christmas tree each year. Prince William and Princess Kate, who have yet to release their card, often include a photo from their summer holidays, and the Belgian royal family followed the trend with their 2025 greeting.
The snapshot was taken outside the family's official residence in Brussels, the Royal Palace of Laeken, and features King Philippe and Queen Mathilde posing with their children Princess Elisabeth, 24, Prince Gabriel, 22, Prince Emmanuel, 20, and Princess Eléonore, 17, amid lush greenery.
