The Cambridge family Christmas card was shared on the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge's social media platforms this week and fans were quick to heap praise on the relaxed and warm portrait of Kate, William and their children.
The photo was taken earlier this year while on a private family trip to Jordan.
The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge shared the photo on Instagram with the caption, “Delighted to share a new image of the family, which features on this year’s Christmas card.”
Fans flooded the Cambridge’s social media accounts with comments, with many agreeing that Charlotte bore a strong resemblance to a young Queen Elizabeth.
One commented, “Charlotte looks exactly like the Queen! So pretty and poised.”
Another agreed, writing “She’s the spitting image of the Queen.”
Many more comments included similar sentiments, saying, “So beautiful. Charlotte looks just like Queen Elizabeth when Elizabeth was her age”, “Princess Charlotte looks like Her Majesty!” and “Simply gorgeous. Charlotte looks like the Queen.”
