Ahead of their tenth wedding anniversary, Prince William and Kate Middleton returned to the church where they exchanged vows nearly a decade ago.

The royal couple spoke with staff and people receiving their vaccines during the outing. William revealed that he and Kate have not yet received their vaccines. “I’m a while away yet until I get mine. But you’re getting there pretty fast so it won’t be long,” the Duke said. “I’ve had plenty of vaccinations in my time. I get jabbed a lot.”
