Earlier this month, Kensington Palace released a series of adorable snapshots featuring the royal family for Prince Charles’s 70th birthday, and one photo in particular really stole our hearts.
In the aforementioned portrait, Prince Charles, his wife, Camilla, two sons, Prince Harry and Prince William, daughter-in-laws Kate Middleton and Meghan Markle, and the future monarch’s grandchildren — George, Charlotte, and Louis — are cracking up, but not for the camera’s sake.
