Royals around the world have been getting into the festive spirit this year, with some dressing up especially for the occasion.

Princess Charlene of Monaco shared a series of fun photos of her husband Prince Albert II from their Christmas Day festivities on Instagram on Saturday. 

The Monaco head of state, 62, donned a Father Christmas-esque costume for the day, accessorising with red Crocs, a Santa hat and novelty glasses, complete with antlers, much to the delight of his six-year-old twins, Prince Jacques and Princess Gabriella.

Instead of her usual bright blonde haircut, the princess' hair had been trimmed closer to her head, with one section at the side completely shaved.

The rest of her hair had been dyed a darker blonde and Charlene also sported a short, side-swept fringe.

Albert and Charlene also celebrated their twins' sixth birthday on 10 December, with the proud mum sharing some snaps of their celebrations on Instagram. Jacques and Gabriella were captured about to blow out their candles on their birthday cake, with a tray of cupcakes alongside it.
