BRITONS TAKE PART IN CLAPPING INITIATIVE
In the clip, the Royal Family was joined by as millions of Britons who also helped to salute key workers from their doorsteps and other places across the country. The initiative has been going on for five weeks and started on March 26, 2020.
Even Prince Charles and Duchess Camilla joined in from Birkhall in Aberdeenshire. Prime Minister Boris Johnson also participated with his fiancée Carrie Symonds.
WILLIAM AND STEPHEN’S ZOOM CALL
In the video that the Cambridge couple shared, it started off by showing Stephen Fry reprising his role as the “Black Adder’s” General Melchett. Fry spoke to William via Zoom and the pair had a hilarious exchange before they went outside to take part in the initiative.
THE BBC’S FUNDRAISING SHOW
The footage was in conjunction with the BBC’s fundraising show, “Big Night In.” Kate’s look for the evening appeared to be inspired by her late mother-in-law, Princess Diana.
KATE MIMICKS PRINCESS DIANA’S LOOK
Her floral Ghost London dress was similar to the ones Diana had worn. Looking at some of the late princess’s ‘80s looks, one would see the resemblance.
DIANA’S POLKA-DOT DRESS
Right before she married Prince Charles, Diana wore a similar design, which included a polka-dot print. This week, William and Kate celebrated an important milestone for one of their children.
CELEBRATING LOUIS’ BIRTHDAY
Little Louis turned two and his parents paid tribute to him by sharing several new photos of him. The toddler was photographed while playing with rainbow-colored paint.
In Britain, the rainbow colors have become a symbol of hope during the COVID-19 crisis.
