PRINCE Harry and Meghan Markle have revealed a rare new picture of their children Archie and Lilibet.
The picture is included among other shots in the couple’s annual Christmas card, which shows the highlights of their year.

Meghan and Harry were shown outdoors hugging Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet as their son and daughter ran into their arms.
The couple have rarely exposed their children to the spotlight and the picture does not show their faces as Lilibet, three, approaches her father while five-year-old Archie runs to his mother.
It appears the couple, who stepped down as royals and moved to California in 2020, may be at the park as their three dogs are pictured.
The six images were shown alongside a card, sent by email, which read: “On behalf of the offices of Prince Harry and Meghan, The Duke and Duchess of Sussex, Archewell Productions and the Archewell Foundation, we wish you a very happy holiday season and a happy New Year.”
The card is intended for professional use by the couple and their team, with the Sussexes sending a special card to their immediate family and friends that will remain private.
The pictures are thought to reflect the couple’s year together, with one photo showing Meghan hugging a young girl, while another shows Harry putting his arm around his wife.
Another picture shows the couple laughing as they sit in a queue of people, the fifth is at an outdoor event with the Sussexes wearing sunglasses and smiling, and the last picture shows the Duke shaking hands with a man lying in bed.
The message on the card itself reads: “We wish you very happy holidays and a happy New Year.”
In contrast, the couple’s children were not even at last year’s festive celebration.
Instead, he had one shot of Meghan and Harry in formal attire during the closing ceremony of the 2023 Invictus Games, which took place in Germany.
They were, however, shown on the 2022 card.
NETFLIX
It comes as Meghan’s Netflix cooking show could reportedly be axed after a documentary about Paul unrelated to her and Harry failed.
The streaming giant is said to be unimpressed with the Duke and Duchess of Sussex’s work since signing a $100m (£80m) content production deal.
Their contract promised TV that “informs but also gives hope” through a “proximate lens”.
Was Harry’s absence from the polo doc a call from Meghan or Netflix? It would be less boring with him
However, their five-part series on privileged sport has left viewers and critics confused and platform bosses running out of patience.
Netflix didn’t even afford him a marketing campaign, and the only promotion was a short statement from Harry (40).
The couple only appears briefly on screen.
Rumors have been swirling for almost a year that Meghan, 43, is making her own show celebrating “the joys of cooking, gardening, fun and friendship”.
But there’s a slightly updated series — meant to complement its luxury American Riviera Orchard brand — with no release date in sight.
A Netflix insider told MailOnline that the Duchess’s show may never come to fruition – while others claim that if it ever does, it will be “make or break” for the couple’s hopes of a TV dynasty.
They added: “People are saying Netflix is exhausted. There’s so much to do with her and, frankly, the ‘delivery’ doesn’t seem worth it.”
