Princess Kate graces Wimbledon Finale

The Wimbledon Men's Final takes place under royal observation: As announced by the Palace, Princess Kate is in the royal box. Alongside her daughter Princess Charlotte, the wife of Prince William attends the Men's Singles Final for the second time since her cancer announcement.

Princess Kate attended Wimbledon despite her ongoing cancer treatment. The daughter-in-law of King Charles III. appeared with her daughter Princess Charlotte for the Men's Singles Final. This is the second official appearance of the Princess of Wales since she publicly announced in March that she was receiving chemotherapy. Kate was also accompanied by her sister Pippa.

Kate had not taken any official engagements for a long time. She made her first public appearance again in mid-June at the Trooping the Colour Parade in London. Now she visited the traditional tennis tournament, where she is also scheduled to present the trophy. The Princess is an avid tennis player herself.

In the match, Novak Djokovic from Serbia, the record Grand Slam tournament winner, faces Carlos Alcaraz from Spain. Kate is the patron of the All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club and has attended the tournament several times.

In March, she announced that after a previous operation in the abdomen, cancer had been detected. Her father-in-law Charles is also being treated for a cancer that was not specified.

She is making good progress but is not over the hill yet, Kate wrote a few weeks ago in a message. Her treatment is expected to last several more months. In Wimbledon, she was seen without her husband: Throne heir Prince William will attend the final of the European Football Championship in Berlin in the evening. There, the English team faces Spain.

Princess Catherine, often referred to as the Princess of Wales, continued her love for sports by attending the Wimbledon Men's Singles Final alongside her daughter, Princess Charlotte. This marked her second public appearance since revealing her cancer diagnosis and undergoing chemotherapy. In her former life, Catherine was an active tennis player and remains a patron of the All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club.
