Russell Wilson and Ciara know how to put on a show—and how to capture stunning family moments. The Grammy Award-winning singer and her husband, the American professional quarterback, are in the festive spirit with their newly-released Christmas family photo.
It’s that time of year when celebrities bless us with stunning Christmas photos, and the Wilsons are no exception. Dressed in chic all-black outfits with subtle touches of white, the family posed against a gorgeous bookshelf backdrop.
From left to right in the photo are Future Zahir, 10, RussellWilson, SiennaPrincess, 7, Ciara holding baby AmoraPrincess, who just turned one, and WinHarrison, 4.
The family captioned their photos, “Merry Christmas! Love, The Wilsons .”

<p>As for what's on the menu, it's full of wild takes on the classic dish, including a Mexican-style poutine with a fried egg, schnitzel poutine, and even a spicy Thai version.
