and , the Duchess of Cornwall, have released their annual Christmas card photo, which has sparked controversy among royal fans.

The photo features the couple at the Braemar Royal Highland gathering in September of this year, but some have pointed out that his children and grandchildren are missing from the picture.

Many people have speculated that the absence of and the Duke of Sussex is due to their ongoing rift amid Harry and Meghan's recent Netflix release.

The docu-series has contained bombshell revelations, and the latest trailer for upcoming episodes has caused outrage among fans and royal experts.

Therefore, it could be said the choice of this year's Christmas card photo reflects the unfortunate family turmoil.

Adam Helica, a royal biographer, said that the photo symbolizes a sense of continuity and solidness with just the two of them standing together and ignores squabbling children and grandchildren.

He also added that having , Kate, Harry, and Meghan on the card would have been too much pressure, and it would have looked forced and awkward.

The photo is symbolizing a sense of stability and a rosy future.

On the other hand, Angela Levin, another royal expert, shared what she believed the card represented.

She said that it is a wonderful card, and it shows at her most mischievous and happy.

The couple looks relaxed, and they work together very well, even though can feel grumpy sometimes.

She understands him completely, and they love being together.

The clothes they are wearing are very much to put Scotland to the front and show they really care.

They love going there, and they are saying please stay with us but in a very positive way.

Royal commentator Richard Fitts-Williams offered his take on the seasonal greeting.

He said that there's no rule for royal Christmas cards, but obviously, there's the poignant memory of the games the Queen couldn't attend.

This was intended to pay tribute to the Queen, and the Braemar Games were five days before she sadly died, so that was the main reason.

The traditional Highland dress was very important to her, and Camilla is wearing the thistle brooch.

The Braemar Games were something the Queen always attended.

The expert also highlighted that royal Christmas cards have varied greatly through the years.

If you look over the years, you'll find a small family group, at other times it's large, it varies, he explained.

However, on the flip side, the commentator did suggest another reason for the choice of photo.

He speculated that if you want to be sad, look at Charles, William, and Harry.

In 1995 and 1999, you sadly see these rifts develop with Diana, and Christmas cards can give you quite an insight.

The brothers were inseparable, and now look what happened.

This year's photo also presents the chance for Charles to provoke Harry and Meghan.

The couple deserves punishments after releasing the bombshell docuseries.
