The coronavirus has spread all the way from Wuhan to the British royal line with Prince Charles now contracting the virus.





On Wednesday, Clarence House, the official residence of Prince Charles, announced that the 71-year-old Prince of Wales had tested positive for the Covid-19 virus after displaying mild symptoms.





His wife, Camilla, the Duchess of Cornwall, has tested negative for the disease. Both are now self-isolating at Birkhall, their private residence in Scotland.





Charles is the heir apparent to the British throne. He last saw his mother on the morning of March 12. Queen Elizabeth II and her husband, Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh, are currently staying at Windsor Castle.





Two weeks ago, Charles was seen forgetting to take precautions while greeting guests at the Princes Trust Awards, offering handshakes before opting instead for namaste bows.





More than 430,000 people have been infected with the coronavirus across the globe. Prince Charles is one of the worlds more famous patients. The list of celebs and government figures also includes:
