On Christmas Day, Kensington Palace shared a new family photo of the Cambridges. In the snap, Prince William is seen kissing his youngest son Louis while Princess Charlotte stands behind him and Prince George sits on a chair. Middleton is noticeably missing in the shot because she was the one captured it.
While many praised the intimate photo of the family, some royal fans criticized it because according to them, the Cambridges copied Prince Harry and Markle’s Christmas card simply because the shot was in black and white.
“Imitation is the best form of flattery – or however the saying goes. It’s nice to see KP staying consistent in ‘imitating’ The Sussexes. The black and white filter … The PDA … Wheeew. Must be nice to know you can’t think of your own ideas. Merry Christmas,” one commented on Twitter.

Another social media user accused the future king and queen of being jealous of Prince Harry and Markle. The netizen said that they waited after the Sussexes posted their Christmas card to release the said picture because they don’t like it when the attention isn’t on them.
