In the snap, the two wrapped arms around each other as they posed on bicycles against a backdrop of the English countryside.
The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge were both casually clad in blue jeans, which William paired with a dark blue button-down shirt and Kate with a white eyelet lace blouse.
William was sporting black Ray-Bans and a black belt, while Kate wore black shades with mirrored lenses on top of her head and carried a brown cross-body bag.
The image was taken by royal family photographer Matt Porteous in Norfolk last year. William and Kate have previously released other snaps from the photo shoot on U.K. Mother's Day and Christmas.
