Prince Charles virtually reunited with his wife, Camilla, on Thursday while the pair remain in isolation in Scotland following his diagnosis of the novel coronavirus.

The 71-year-old Prince of Wales tested positive for COVID-19, his office announced Wednesday. One day later, the Clarence House shared a video of the couple standing in what appears to be separate rooms as they clap for health care workers fighting the coronavirus.

"Thank you to you all," the Instagram Story on their office's official Instagram account reads.

The post included the hashtags #ClapForOurCarers #ThankYouNHS in honor of the National Health Service (NHS) staff, who administered tests to the royal couple.
