Prince William and Duchess Kate headed back to work after Prince Charles' 70th birthday festivities, tackling an anti-cyberbullying initiative on Thursday.
The royal couple visited the BBC offices in London to mark Anti-Bullying week and view the network's progress as a "key member" of William's Taskforce on the Prevention of Cyberbullying, which was launched in 2016.
Will and Kate, both 36, met with three students from Wormholt Park Primary School for a discussion on the upcoming Kids Online Wellbeing app during their visit.
Prince William gave a speech on cyberbullying and social media, highlighting the positives and negatives of social networking platforms.
"I believe we are stronger when we are connected and more successful when we can understand each other’s experiences," he said. "We all have to acknowledge, though, that much of the early optimism and hope of social media is giving way to very real concern, and even fear about its impact on our lives."
Prince William opened up about why he launched the task force: his kids.
"I convened the Taskforce because I was a new parent," he said. "And I saw that my friends and peers were seriously worried about the risks of the very powerful tools we were putting in our children’s hands."
Duchess Kate's look was an outfit we've seen before. She wore a teal, long-sleeved Emilia Wickstead dress for the outing, paired with black pumps and her hair done in a blowout. She previously wore the dress during a visit to the Centre for Addiction Treatment Studies in 2015 as well as during a 2014 trip to New Zealand.
Prince William opted for slacks and an open jacket with a white shirt and no tie.
