Royal Family News: Prince William And Kate Are The First Working Royals To Support Ukraine

Royal family news reveals that the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge became the first British senior members of the royal family to voice their support for the people of Ukraine. The pair made it personal by signing off with their initials rather than by their official titles.

They shared their solidarity with the people of Ukraine “as they bravely fight” for their “future”.

Royal Expert Calls Prince William and Kate’s Support for Ukraine “Unusual”

Royal Family News – Voicing Their Support

On Saturday, William and Kate tweeted their joint support for Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky and “all of Ukraine’s people”.

The couple included the flag of Ukraine in the post, which was also shared by British Prime Minister Boris Johnson.

They wrote: “In October 2020 we had the privilege to meet President Zelenskyy and the First Lady to learn of their hope and optimism for Ukraine’s future.”

“Today we stand with the President and all of Ukraine’s people as they bravely fight for that future W & C.”

In October 2020, William and Kate welcomed Mr. Zelensky and his wife Olena to Buckingham Palace for an audience on behalf of the Queen. The two met and chatted in the palace’s Throne Room.

Royal Family News – More Royals Offer Support

Commenting on the tweet and the phrasing, Joe Little, managing editor of Majesty Magazine, said to the PA news agency: “An unusual move on the part of the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge – W & C to indicate their personal involvement – and a clear sign of how strongly they feel about the situation in Ukraine.”

“But they’re not the first royals to comment; the King and Queen of the Netherlands released a statement on Thursday.”

Her Majesty, who is currently recovering from COVID-19, is yet to comment on the situation.
