Royal Family News: Kate Middleton And Prince William Visit Their Wedding Venue: Here’s Why

British Royal family news Kate Middleton and Prince William, Duke of Cambridge returned to Westminster Abbey Tuesday morning to pay tribute to the staff of the new COVID-19 vaccination center. The royal couple wed there nearly 10 years ago.

The National Health Service (NHS) turned the Westminster Abbey as a pop-up clinic earlier in March to rollout the COVID-19 vaccine. There are 1,600 vaccination centers all over the country.

It’s been a year since the United Kingdom and other countries in the world imposed lockdowns. The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge’s visit started with a moment of silence to remember more than 125,000 British people who died due to the coronavirus and to pay tribute to the staff and volunteers at the center. It’s part of the country’s National Day of Reflection to mark the anniversary of the first lockdown in the UK.

Kate and William also checked how the frontline workers are doing and offered their support and words of encouragement. The vaccination center at Westminster Abbey gives around 2,000 injections every day to local residents.
