THESE are the five hidden signs in Meghan Markle and Prince Harry’s Christmas card.
The couple released an adorable family snap, showing a first glimpse of baby Lillibet.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex beamed as they showed off their little girl for the first time since her birth six months ago.
The picture was taken by the couple’s wedding photographer Alexi Lubomirski.
Meghan, 40, can be seen raising a giggling Lilibet – who was named after the Queen – into the air.
Meanwhile Harry, 30, in ripped jeans and no shoes, laughs as the 37-year-old cuddles their two-year-old son Archie – who sports a shock of red hair, just like his dad.
The message on the card reads: “Happy Holidays.
“This year, 2021, we welcomed our daughter, Lilibet, to the world.
“Archie made us a ‘Mama’ and a ‘Papa’, and Lili made us a family.”
Here are the five hidden meanings behind the snap.
‘Happy Holidays’
The Sussexes chose to wish everyone a “happy holidays,” which is an Americanism of the more British festive greetings, like “merry Christmas”.
The lingo shows the family are fully settled into their American dream, after they upped sticks and moved to California -it seems – for good.
And Harry is said to have been speaking with more of an American twang lately, sending royal fans wild.
Hosts on Pod Save the Queen noticed the ginger prince’s intonation seems to go slightly up at the end of his sentences, in a decidedly Californian way.
Harry’s bare feet
In the relaxed snap, Harry, Archie and Lillibet are all pictured without shoes.
While not unusual for the little ones, it isn’t often that a prim and proper royal to is seen with his toes out.
But the 37-year-old has stepped back from royal duties now, even begrudgingly giving up his military titles, and with it, his uniform and medals.
The barefoot snap is a nod to a beachy, Californian lifestyle – miles away from suits and boots at Buckingham Palace.
Matching denim
The family done matching denim for the festive snap, with Harry going the extra mile in what appears to be a denim – or at least dark blue – shirt.
The somewhat cheesy sartorial choice shows the family are united, and a whole unit – with the Sussexes speaking openly about how they had always wanted four children.
The Kardashian-esque look is also very relaxed and informal.
‘Diana’s’ bracelet
In the snap harry is seen with an assortment of trendy bracelets on his wrist.
It’s believed the Duke of Sussex acquired the beaded bracelet during a trip to Africa, shortly after his mum Princess Diana passed away and has come to associate it with her.
In a past interview, Harry revealed he first visited Africa after his mother died and has come to champion some of the causes she cared deeply about across the continent.
“I first came [to Africa] in 1997, straight after my mum died,” he explained.
“My dad told my brother and me to pack our bags — we were going to Africa to get away from it all.”
Wedding photographer
The couple employed the talents of their very own wedding photographer to take their Christmas snap, Alexi Lumbomirkski.
The Brit-born fashion photographer worked as the assistant to Princess Diana’s trusted friend and photographer Mario Testino, who was the man behind the lens for some of her most beautiful images.
Alexi is well-known for capturing relaxed, natural laid back shots – as seen in Meg and Harry’s wedding and engagement photos.
Alexi himself said of his work with the Sussexes: “This has been a beautiful chapter in my career and life, that I will happily never forget”.
