The Prince and Princess of Wales have given their social media accounts a revamp – after the release of their moving video to mark the end of Kate’s chemotherapy treatment.
Kate and Prince William, both 42, yesterday updated their profile pictures on their X and Instagram pages, swapping the photograph which was taken on a visit to Ireland in 2020 with a snap from the emotional three-minute clip.
In the main image, the loved-up royal couple six next to one another on a blanket in the woods as they hold each other’s hands. Kate is captured throwing her head back in laughter while William wears an equally cheerful look in the candid snap.
The intimate photograph replaces their previous profile picture which was taken on a walk along Howth Cliff, near Dublin, in March 2020, and showed their arms around one another.
Updates to their social media account could be signs of a ‘fresh start’ now Kate’s chemotherapy has ended – after royal fans claimed the royal swapping out her engagement ring for her stunning eternity band in the new video shared yesterday was also possibly the Princess marking ‘the next phase of her life’.

The royal couple also changed their header photo on X, formerly known as Twitter, to a sweet photo from the clip that shows the Prince and Princess with their children, Prince George, 11, Princess Charlotte, nine, and Prince Louis, six.
A cheeky Louis sits next to his father, while Charlotte has her arms resting on her mother and older brother as the family beam at the camera in the adorable picture.
In the emotional clip posted yesterday, Kate and her husband Prince William are seen celebrating the Princess’s recovery alongside their three children.
King Charles and his wife Queen Camilla are understood to have welcomed yesterday’s announcement as ‘wonderful news’ and will continue to offer all love, thoughts and support to Kate on her continued path to full recovery.
While Kate’s message to the nation was filled with hope and celebration, she warned that ‘doing what I can to stay cancer free is now my focus’ and admitted the last nine months have been a ‘scary and unpredictable’ time for her family.
The Princess said the experience has reminded her and her husband to ‘reflect and be grateful for the simple yet important things in life, which so many of us often take for granted. Of simply loving and being loved.’
The video was filmed in Norfolk last month and is accompanied by a backdrop of stunning nature. It shows the family playing happily on the beach and in the woods, William and Catherine laying entwined on a blanket, hugging their children – and kissing.
