The royal went on to offer words of encouragement, adding, “You know that I am 100 percent there. I really want to know how we can help. All over the world is just so affected by this extraordinary devastation. My heart goes out to the emergency services, to all the people who are tirelessly working and have been working for all these days to try and contain the fire.”

Ferguson concluded by thanking the first responders for their courage during times of crisis. She continued, “To the first responders and the extraordinary people who are out there fighting, to anyone out there—we're here, we're going to keep fighting, we're going to help you rebuild.”

The caption read, “My thoughts are with all those affected and support goes out to everybody in the emergency services that are working tirelessly to help.”

Well said, Fergie.
