Prince William is reflecting on some relatable quarantine concerns.

The Duke of Cambridge made his return to public duties on Tuesday morning when he visited paramedics at the Ambulance Station in King's Lynn, Norfolk. In addition to expressing his gratitude to the first responders, William shared a few laughs and offered a window into lockdown life with the Cambridge family.

According to Hello!, the prince touched on the lack of exercise imposed upon many during life in quarantine. "I'm worried about the waistline of the nation as well with all the chocolate and cakes," he joked.
