MEGHAN AND Harry have delivered their Christmas wishes with an eco-friendly e-card that stars baby Archie.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex’s Christmas card was shared via the Queen’s Commonwealth Trust Twitter account, which described it as “the sweetest Christmas card”.

Harry and Meghan are president and vice-president of the Queen’s Commonwealth Trust, which champions, funds and connects young leaders working hard to change the world.

It is understood that the e-card was sent to friends, while family members received a physical copy.

The card features a black and white image of Meghan and Harry, smiling in front of a twinkling Christmas tree and looking on as Archie stares directly into the camera lens. It reads: “Wishing you a very merry Christmas and a happy New Year from our family to yours.”

It is reported that the photograph was taken by Meghan’s friend, actor Janina Gavankar.

The trio have remained largely out of the limelight for a while as they are taking a break from royal duties to spend time together away from the public and media.

This new photo has proved popular, with the tweet from the Queen’s Commonwealth Trust account generating more than 50,000 likes and 7,000 retweets in less than 24 hours.

It has not been shared on the pair’s Sussex Royal Instagram account.

The royal couple are currently in Canada with Meghan’s family, with whom they will celebrate Archie’s first Christmas.

For the past two years Meghan and Harry have spent Christmas at Sandringham with the rest of the royal family.

    Love the comments on it news do negative then read comments about William and Kate photo card only 1 negative comment out of over 300. If we thpught that having Megan as part of the royal family would bring inclusion it only reinforces that racism is alive and well. So the addage goes be careful what you wish for
