Prince Charles and Camilla Parker Bowles are reunited—and just in time to celebrate a special milestone.

ICYMI: The 71-year-old Prince of Wales was diagnosed with COVID-19. After testing positive and exhibiting what were referred to as “mild symptoms,” Prince Charles remained in self-isolation for a week. The 72-year-old Duchess of Cornwall, who was exposed via Charles but remained healthy, practiced self-isolation for two weeks just to be safe. Prince Charles has since recovered from COVID-19 and was able to reunite with the duchess just ahead of their 15th wedding anniversary.

The couple shared a photo of their reunion on Instagram yesterday and the joy on their faces is unmistakable.

On their shared @ClarenceHouse Instagram account, the couple posed with their dogs, Bluebell and Beth (those names!), on the porch of their Scottish country home, Birkhall.

Their communication team captioned the photo, “Ahead of The Prince of Wales and The Duchess of Cornwall’s 15th wedding anniversary tomorrow [today], we are sharing this photo of Their Royal Highnesses with The Duchess’s dogs Bluebell and Beth. The photo was taken earlier today at Birkhall.”

Now that Prince Charles and Duchess Camilla are able to spend time with one another again, it’s not clear how they plan to celebrate their crystal anniversary. With social distancing measures still in place, it’s likely they’ll enjoy a low-key evening at home with Bluebell and Beth.

The Prince of Wales and Duchess of Cornwall were wed in a civil ceremony at Windsor Guildhall on April 9, 2005. The ceremony was followed by a Church of England Service of Prayer and Dedication at St. George’s Chapel (the same place Prince Harry and Meghan Markle got married).

All we can say is congratulations to the happy and healthy couple.
