Kate Middleton has stopped wearing both her eternity ring and her engagement ring in recent days – with eagle-eyed royal commentators taking note of the dramatic change.

Part of the reason that we've seen and heard more from the Cambridges than any other senior royal family household (there are two others, now the Sussexes are formerly stepping down: The Queen and Prince Philip, and Prince Charles and Camilla Parker-Bowles) is that they're able to be more public-facing than the rest of the family right now. While the other two households were forced to self-isolate by mid-March—the Queen, Prince Philip, Prince Charles, and Camilla are all over the age of 70, which is considered a risk factor for coronavirus—the Cambridges were able to make a critical appearance at an emergency center in Croydon, England, on March 20 to show their support for first responders.

The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge are speaking out about the “challenges” working from home and isolation can cause with ones mental health.

Kate Middleton and Prince William's children Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis, were among the many people in the UK who participated in the viral "clap for the UK's National Health Service videos" paying tribute to NHS workers treating coronavirus victims.
