It was posted on social media with a heart emoji and the caption: “Celebrating 15 years of marriage.”

In the photograph, the couple are pictured relaxing on the grass with their children, Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis, alongside their dog during the Easter holiday. The image was captured by photographer Matt Porteous in Cornwall.

Since their 2011 wedding at Westminster Abbey, the couple has balanced royal duties with family life, raising three children while championing causes like mental health, early childhood development, and environmental conservation, shaping a more relatable royal image.
