Kate Middleton Watches The Women’s Final From The Royal Box
The Princess of Wales appeared at this year’s match wearing a soft cream dress. She greeted the staff and ball kids near the walkway before moving to the Royal Box.
Her dress reminded many of the green self-portrait design she wore during the previous final. Her look was simple and familiar. She wore small hoop earrings. A bow near her collar showed her role as royal patron. She reached her seat with a quiet smile.
Several other royals also attended matches this year. Queen Camilla, Princess Beatrice, and the Duchess of Edinburgh were spotted earlier. Kate’s parents, Carole and Michael Middleton, watched from the Royal Box during day eight.
The Princess Missed Last Year, But Not This One
Kate has rarely missed the women’s final since becoming patron of the club. She only stayed away twice, once in 2017. Then again, last year, when she was receiving cancer treatment.
For several years in a row, she stepped forward to present trophies to both players. She also watched one of the finals sitting beside Meghan Markle. This event has become a tradition. Kate has had a full week.
Kate and William met the French president and his wife earlier this week. That night, they showed up again at a dinner inside Windsor Castle.
She might go to the men’s final as well. Alcaraz is playing Sinner. If Kate turns up, she will give out the trophies after the match. For more royal updates and buzz, follow Soap Opera Daily.
