The couple are now self-isolating at their home in Aberdeenshire in Scotland in line with medical advice.
In a statement, a Clarence House spokesperson said: "It is not possible to ascertain from whom the Prince caught the virus owing to the high number of engagements he carried out in his public role during recent weeks."
More than 8,000 cases of COVID-19 had been confirmed in the UK as of yesterday evening.
