Members of the royal family are preparing for one of the most important days of the year—and they’re doing so by making some major changes to their social media accounts.
In honor of Remembrance Day, a holiday that honors members of the Armed Forces who have died in the line of duty (think of it as the U.S. equivalent to Memorial Day), Queen Elizabeth (@TheRoyalFamily), Prince Charles (@ClarenceHouse), Kate Middleton and Prince William (@KensingtonRoyal) have all updated their profile photos on their Instagram and Twitter accounts.
These new photos have a few things in common. Not only were they taken at previous Remembrance Day services over the years, but they also feature the royals sporting the famous red poppy flower. Symbolizing remembrance and hope for a peaceful future, poppies are worn annually as a show of support for fallen WWI soldiers. See Her’s Majesty’s old and new photos below.
