Prince Charles and Camilla Parker Bowles are the latest to join the list of royals who are giving healthcare workers a standing ovation. The only difference? These two are doing it virtually.
In a new video posted on the Clarence House Instagram Story Thursday, Prince Charles virtually joined wife Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall, to show their appreciation for those in the medical field who are helping individuals affected by the current coronavirus pandemic. See a screenshot of the video below.
The clip is in response to a recent social media campaign, which is honoring healthcare workers using the hashtag #ClapForOurCarers. And according to The Guardian, at 8 p.m. on Thursday, millions of people in the U.K. stood at their front doors and open windows and clapped together to show gratitude for those working on the frontline of the fight against the virus.
The new post comes two days after Prince Charles revealed that he had tested positive for coronavirus (and is doing well). Hence, why he and his wife are currently not in the same location. But hey, this video still works.
Clarence House announced the news in a statement, writing, “The Prince of Wales has tested positive for Coronavirus. He has been displaying mild symptoms but otherwise remains in good health and has been working from home throughout the last few days as usual.”
Yesterday, Kensington Palace also shared a never-before-seen video on Twitter, featuring the Cambridge children, Prince George (6), Princess Charlotte (4) and Prince Louis (1), applauding for the camera.
If you need us, we’ll be patiently waiting for a clapping video from our girl, Queen Elizabeth.
