Prince William and Kate
The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge's Instagram account was officially launched in 2015, which originally documented William, Kate and Prince Harry's charity work. Meghan Markle became part of the fold when she became engaged to Harry in 2017, and the couple then branched out to set up their own account.
William and Kate have upped their social media presence of late, having experimented with the fun reels feature during their royal train tour of the UK and the Duchess took part in her first ever Instagram Q&A session in December 2020.
