Mr Clegg’s wife Miriam Gonzalez Durantez has been given reindeer antlers and Rudolph’s red nose in the image, created by the three boys using an iPad to draw over a photograph of the couple on the sofa in their west London home.
The boys Antonio, 11, Alberto, nine and Miguel, four added a speech bubble showing their parents saying “Happy Christmas” and a decorated tree to complete the festive image.
