King Philippe of Kingdom of Belgium boasts of a large family under his belt, and he was captured in the photos wearing a face mask and getting his youngest daughter Princess Eleonore to school, after schools reopened in the European country after several months of lockdown.
The Belgian Royal Palace posted several photographs and a video capturing the very moment on Twitter, displaying the affectionate daughter and father in action, both wearing masks, before returning back to social distancing rules.
The Belgian Royal Palace also added their own commentary, thanking all those in the educational field for their hardships to support schools reopening and keep students to return back to their original position.
The tweet, accordingly, spilled out: ‘Thanks to the teachers in management for receiving the students in a safe way. Thank you to school administrators, teachers and educators for the preparations and adaptations aimed at allowing a partial and gradual return of students.
’ The Princess’ mother, Queen Mathilde was not present at the sweet father-daughter reunion.
King Philippe and Queen Mathilde are also parents to Princess Elisabeth, 18, Prince Gabriel, 16 and Prince Emmanuel, 14.
Elisabeth, who has been studying at UWC Atlantic College in Wales, had to return to Belgium in March before lockdown measures were put in place. The entire Belgian royal family have now stayed in Laeken, where their family home is situated. Schools across the country were given permission to reopen earlier this week, after May 4 turned out to be a milestone for slackening the previous restricions.
However, there are obviously restrictions regarding that must be followed even in the easing of the tensions: “But class sizes must be smaller than normal and social distancing measures have to be in place at all times.
Some schools are using chalk markings and temperature checks, amongst other measures, to make sure the small amount of children back at schools remain safe. The country begun a three-stage lockdown exit plan earlier this month after seven weeks of confinement measures.
Phase two of the plan will begin on Monday 18 May, but moving forward each stage will be monitored based on the spread of the virus. Belgium have recorded 54,644 confirmed cases of coronavirus and 8,959 fatalities, according to official figures.
