British Royal Family News: When Did The Royal Couple Call?
While it was Canada Day yesterday, it was revealed that the video call actually happened last year. The video wasn’t released to the public until yesterday however, as the royals wanted to mark the Canada Day celebrations. William also revealed in the call that he was looking forward to visiting the hospital in the future.
The call seemed to be warmly received by the staff at the hospital as they cheered when they saw Kate and William pop up on their screens. There was also a bit of fun at the beginning of the call as there was a slight problem with the picture, which meant the staff couldn’t see the royals to begin with.
