On his own! Prince William attended a tea party to celebrate the 73rd anniversary of the National Health Service on Monday, July 5, but Kate Middleton was not by his side as she currently has to self-isolate after she came into contact with someone who tested positive for COVID-19.
William wore a blue suit during his outing and looked to be in a chipper mood, despite his wife not being able to attend.

"Last week, The Duchess of Cambridge came into contact with someone who has subsequently tested positive for COVID-19," Kate's spokesman said. "Her Royal Highness is not experiencing any symptoms, but is following all relevant government guidelines and is self-isolating at home."
Fortunately, the mom-of-three got her vaccine in May.
"Yesterday I received my first dose of the COVID-19 vaccine at London’s Science Museum. I’m hugely grateful to everyone who is playing a part in the rollout - thank you for everything you are doing," she wrote via Instagram at the time.

William seemed to be talking with some ladies at the event, which honors the U.K.'s public health service.
The dad-of-three received his vaccine around the same time as his wife.
"On Tuesday I received my first dose of the COVID-19 vaccine. To all those working on the vaccine rollout - thank you for everything you've done and continue to do," he captioned a photo of himself getting pricked on the official The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge social media accounts.
