Prince Charles and Camilla have shown off their fun and relaxed personalities in their annual Christmas card in the lead up to the festive celebration.

Each year the royal couple send out a collection of cards to friends, family and world leaders and this time around they chose to do it in style in a classic car. The snap was taken during the Duke and Duchess of Cornwall’s trip to Cuba earlier this year with the two looking relaxed and happy as they cruised through Havana.

Charles and Camilla both sported big smiles on their faces for the drive, with Camilla giving a wave to cameras while Charles kept his hands firmly on the wheel.

The photo was first shared on the couple’s Instagram page this week along with an image of the full card which includes the message: “Wishing you a very happy Christmas and New Year.”

Royal fans were quick to comment with many claiming how much they loved seeing the couple looking so happy and content.

“That’s quite cool,” @follow_the_noor wrote on the Instagram post.

“Love it. Laid back with a sense of fun,” @cazualuser said.

“This is so beautiful. Great choice,” @melissa_12 added.

Meanwhile, earlier this week a photo of the Cambridge family’s Christmas card was leaked online showing Prince William, Catherine and their adorable three children smiling happily together.

Although the couple haven’t published it to their social media page, according to People the British Royal Air Force posted an image of it to Twitter. It was promptly removed, however royal fans managed to screenshot the snap and have since published it to their own Twitter accounts.

In the adorable family photo Catherine sports a blue and white patterned long sleeve dress, while William matches her in a casual blue shirt. The prince sits on an old motorbike with his youngest son Louis in front who wears a cute pair of overalls.

Meanwhile, his siblings George and Charlotte stand alongside the motorbike. George sports a casual navy blue polo shirt for the photo which is paired with red and blue checkered shorts, while Charlotte wears a blue patterned dress.
