"Fabulous photos thanks so much for sharing them with us!" said another, whole a third commented: "I love them, they are so cute!"
This comes after William and Kate visited an NHS 111 call centre on Friday to highlight the important work workers are doing amid the coronavirus outbreak.
William praised the staff “working around the clock to provide care and advice to those that need it most.”
He told his Instagram followers: “The last few weeks, and more recent days have been understandably concerning with the continuing spread of coronavirus.
“But it’s at times like this when we realise just how much the NHS represents the very best of our country and society – people from all backgrounds and walks of life with different experiences and skills, pulling together for the common good.”
He finally added: “All of us have a part to play if we’re going to protect the most vulnerable.
“That means acting on the latest expert advice, staying home if we or those we live with have symptoms, and avoiding non-essential contact to help reduce the spread of the virus.”
