If the Christmas carol tell us of We Three Kings, so the Wales family have embraced the theme with one future king, a Princess and a Prince, writes Royal Editor Hannah Furness.
The Prince and Princess of Wales have celebrated Christmas by releasing a new photograph of their three children, arms around each other in a picture of family joy.
Princess Charlotte, eight, beams for the camera and puts her arms around her brothers.
Prince George, the tallest at age ten, looks confidently into the camera, while five-year-old Prince Louis leans in to his big sister.
The children are sitting on a long antique chair, not unlike a garden bench in appearance, for the black and white photograph, in which they are dressed casually in coordinated white shirts.
The two old children wear jeans, while Prince Louis has a pair of smart shorts. Charlotte and Louis have matching slip-on trainers, while George follows in the footsteps of his father suede lace-up shoes.
The image is the second to be released from a series taken by photographer Josh Shinner. The first was used on the Wales Christmas card, and featured all five of the family.
