Prince William and Duchess Catherine have shared a special message for British Prime Minister Boris Johnson as he battles COVID-19 in hospital.
The 55-year-old was admitted to St Thomas’ hospital in London earlier this week, and was later moved to the intensive care unit where he is receiving “standard oxygen treatment”.
Downing Street has confirmed Johnson is in a “stable” condition as of Wednesday morning, and “in good spirits”.
Many members of the Royal Family have sent their best wishes to the UK Prime Minister – but the Cambridge’s message has stood out for its very personal sentiment.
Taking to Twitter on Tuesday evening, Kensington Palace shared a personal note from the Duke of Cambridge, who wrote on behalf of himself and Catherine: “Our thoughts are with the Prime Minister and his family, who like so many in the UK and around the world are affected by coronavirus.”
He ended the message to “wish him a speedy recovery at this difficult time,” and signed off with one simple letter: “W”.
It is rare to see a personal message of this nature from Prince William, and it is being seens as a reflection of the extraordinary circumstances the world is currently facing.
