Meghan Markle and Prince Harry released a paper-free holiday card and selected a black and white photo with a significant meaning
- Meghan Markle and Prince Harry debuted their annual holiday card on Friday.
- The paper-free Christmas card featured a black-and-white candid photo of the couple taken in NYC.
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's 2022 holiday card is here and it contains a candid photo of the couple at a recent humanitarian gala where they were honored with a prestigious award.
The card was released one day after the final three episodes of the couple's Netflix docuseries aired.
On Friday, royal author Omid Scobie tweeted out a copy of the couple's paperless Christmas card. In it, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex appear in a black-and-white photo during their appearance at the Robert F. Kennedy Human Rights Gala on December 6 in New York. As Insider previously reported, Harry and Meghan were among the recipients of the Ripple of Hope award, given to individuals "for their transformative work in the pursuit of a more just and peaceful world."
Other recipients include Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky and the late Bill Russell, a former NBA Hall of Famer and civil rights activist.
In the photograph, the couple appears to beam with smiles and holding hands. Meghan is wearing a custom-designed white off-the-shoulder long-sleeve dress from Louis Vuitton, according to WWD.
Harry and Meghan wished recipients of their e-card a "joyful holiday season."
"From our family to yours, and on behalf of our teams at The Archewell Foundation, Archewell Audio, and Archewell Productions, we wish you health, peace, and a very happy new year!" the card read.
Harry and Meghan's holiday card came four days after Prince William and Kate Middleton released their first Christmas photo as the Prince and Princess of Wales.
William and Kate, who were named the Prince and Princess of Wales after King Charles III ascended the British throne in September, shared the new photo on Tuesday.
In the shot, William, Kate, Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis hold hands and walk down a path. The photo was taken in Norfolk, according to a statement Kensington Palace shared with Insider.
