British royal family news finds that fans were in adulation of the senior royals on Tuesday, as they led the tributes for healthcare professionals that have been ‘keeping the show on the road’ throughout the coronavirus pandemic. The video was revealed, and it showed Prince William, Prince Charles and Kate Middleton all thanking the nurses from around the world.
It is believed to be the first time that all members of the royal family have been on a Zoom cal at the same time, but it was used to mark a special occasion. Yesterday was International Nurses Day, and this year it was celebrated more actively than most. Much of that was down to the fact that people from around the world wanted to use it as an opportunity to honour their sacrifice and determination during the pandemic.

Bits of the conversation were released for fans to hear, as the Queen continued by admitting that the nurses have had a huge part to play recently. The call was followed by videos of the other senior royals showing their adulation for the part that nurses have played during the pandemic. Kate joined forces with the Countess of Wessex to speak to nurses in Australian, India and the Bahamas.
