Royals fans were quick to point out how toned William's arms are and the topic was also discussed on British show This Morning.
ITV presenters Holly Willoughby and Phillip Schofield talked about the duke of Cambridge's vaccine announcement with two of their guests.
Willoughby said: "Prince William has had his COVID-19 vaccine. He posted a picture on Twitter.
"Now, obviously this is great, it encourages other people to go and have their vaccine, but I was looking this morning on their Instagram page and I couldn't help but have a little smile at the comments underneath."
On Instagram, royal fans noted William's sporty physique, with one saying: "Congratulations! Also....wow, someone is working out!"
Another person added: "Looking buff there Prince William."
One more commented: "Wasn't expecting a gun show this early but happy I got an invite."
A person joked on Twitter: "Congratulations Your Buffness... I mean, Your Highness."
Some people pointed out how the duke of Cambridge received his vaccine when his age group was offered it in the U.K., without jumping the queue.
One person wrote on Twitter: "Great to see the Royals have waited their turn as I'm sure they could have insisted to have it earlier."
