Prince Charles and his wife, Camilla, the Duchess of Cornwall, are extremely grateful for the NHS healthcare workers! On Thursday evening, across the United Kingdom, people took a moment to cheer on the nurses and doctors who have risked their lives during the coronavirus outbreak by participating in the #ClapsForCarers initiative.
From their Scotland residence in Birkhall, Prince Charles and Camilla joined in, clapping from their separate wings as they self-isolate following the Prince of Wales' recent coronavirus diagnosis. The couple shared the separate videos on the Clarence House Instagram Stories.

A source previously told ET that Prince Charles is “doing well” after Clarence House confirmed that the prince is experiencing "mild symptoms."
As for Charles and Camilla, they remain separate, but in touch.
A royal source says, "Both remain in good spirits. [Camilla] has concern for the prince. She is aware of his good spirits and therefore, as any partner would, is keeping a close eye on him and mindful of her own situation. She is very upbeat."
Charles wasn't the only member of the royal family to participate in the #ClapsForCarers trend. Queen Elizabeth II, who is currently quarantined with Prince Philip in Windsor Castle shared a video on the official Royal Family account of those working at the castle cheering on healthcare workers with claps, bells, and more.
