Kate and William’s ugly Christmas jumper is the best part of 2016

We wish this was real

It may only be a waxwork but that’s not to say that this scene isn’t full of joy and festivities.

The lovely people at Madame Tussauds London have created a very entertaining royal Christmas display for a good cause.

The museum kicked off their annual Christmas Jumper Day campaign yesterday by dressing Her Majesty’s likeness in the daftest knit they could find. She is joined by Prince Philip, the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, Prince Harry, the Prince of Wales and the Duchess of Cornwall.

With Catherine and William sharing their own cosy double-jumper, the Royal line up was surrounded by The Queen’s favourite companions, four real corgis, dressed in their own mini-Christmas jumpers. The royal wax figures can be seen wearing the knits throughout December in Madame Tussauds London, with visitors encouraged to grab a selfie with the Royal likenesses. The attraction will also give visitors the option of donating to help Save the Children.

Edward Fuller, General Manager of Madame Tussauds London, said: “We are delighted to be able to support Save the Children by having our Royal wax figures join in with Christmas Jumper Day campaign in a seriously stylish way!  Throughout the festive period, our guests can enjoy seeing Her Majesty and the Royal Family in their jumpers. We’ll be encouraging everyone to take a truly unique picture with the Royals and donate in any way they can.”
