Like many families around the world, the Luxembourgish royals are celebrating a quieter Christmas than normal. Henri and Maria Teresa posted their official seasonal card on their Instagram page this week, wishing their followers a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year as they showcased a series of sweet family photos.
One of the pictures showed the new royal baby – Henri and Maria Teresa’s grandson, Prince Charles. Charles is the first-born child of Hereditary Grand Duke Guillaume and his wife Hereditary Grand Duchess Stephanie.
The baby prince, who is second-in-line to the throne after his father Guillaume, was born on Sunday 10 May at the Grand Duchess Charlotte Maternity Hospital in Luxembourg City.
Shortly after Charles’ birth, the royal family released a set of photos of the new addition to the household. In two historic portraits which showed three generations, Grand Duke Henri proudly posed with his son Guillaume and grandson Charles.
