Kate Middleton and Prince William pulled out all the stops in accompanying their brood Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis in the “Clap for Carers” initiative -- which has swept over the U.K. region and in other areas worldwide -- in recognition of the health care professionals and first responders currently fighting the coronavirus pandemic.
The royal family, wearing color-coordinated blue outfits, made a special appearance on the BBC on Thursday and shared the moment to their social media accounts.
“This evening The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis joined the U.K. in the weekly #ClapForOurCarers to show their appreciation for the incredible key workers working tirelessly to keep the country running,” the caption read on Instagram.
The weekly campaign is in effect to honor the National Health Service (NHS) frontline workers who are consistently battling the novel virus, and Thursday’s effort on the BBC network’s “The Big Night In” was a telethon to raise money for essential workers and those affected by COVID-19.
