GREAT NEWS FROM TEAM WALES!

It’s the joyous holiday snap that says things are getting better for the Wales family.

This gorgeous family picture of William, George, Charlotte and Louis was released to celebrate the Prince of Wales’ 42nd birthday last month.

Taken by keen photographer Kate, of her family leaping in the sand dunes at one of their favourite Norfolk beaches, it radiates joy.

And given the context – having endured a year from hell for our most photogenic royals – we can all delight in its simple message that things seem to be improving.

Certainly it was much less circumspect than the Father’s Day picture just a week earlier of the same quartet all staring contemplatively out to sea.

With Kate doing well with her treatment and back in limited action at Trooping the Colour and (hopefully, at least) Wimbledon, there is cause for celebration.
