A special thanks from Prince Harry and Meghan Markle for all your Christmas wishes!

The couple, who wished royal fans a Merry Christmas with a sweet illustration of themselves with Archie, have sent out thank-you cards to all those who wished them over the holidays.

"Thank you for your thoughtful message. We appreciate your kind words and the time you have taken to write to us on this special occasion. Sending you our warmest wishes," the card, shared by Clarence House and signed by The Duke and Duchess of Sussex, said.

Gert's Royal Replies Twitter shared the card, which included a throwback photo of Meghan holding an umbrella over Harry's head during their 2018 visit to Dubbo during their tour of Australia, New Zealand, Fiji and Tonga, reports People.

The story behind this sweet photo though? As the rain came pouring down – a welcome occasion as the region had been struggling with a drought for years – Dubbo's mayor, Ben Shields offered the prince his umbrella during his speech.

Harry, the joker that he is, however, replied: "It's all right. I've got my wife."
