The Royal Family has reunited to come together for an important cause.

Royal Family members reunited yesterday afternoon as they came together for a special gesture.

The Queen was joined by son and heir apparent Prince Charles and his wife Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall, as well as her daughter and daughter-in-law Princess Anne and Sophie, Countess of Wessex in a lovely video.

The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge also joined the rest of the Royal Family in the special video as the group made a tribute to nurse for yesterday’s International Nurses Day.

The touching video saw the family come together to pay tribute as they video called nurses from around the world to mark the special day.

At the start of the video the Queen could be heard speaking with Professor Kathleen McCourt, the President of the Commonwealth Nurses and Midwives Federation and Fellow of the Royal College of Nursing, which the Queen is Patron of.

“Obviously nurses have had a very important part to play recently,” said the Monarch, speaking of the “rather important day”.

Prince Charles also contributed to the conversation thanking nurses from around the globe for their hard work.

“My family and I want to join in the chorus of thank yous to nurses and midwifery staff in this country and all over the country and all over the world,” said the heir apparent, while wife Duchess Camilla added, “Thank you, from the bottom of my heart”.

So lovely to see the Royal Family coming together during these difficult times.
