Why did Princess Kate attend Wimbledon alone this weekend? It’s a question that had many royal watchers thinking out loud. Well, hold your horses because the answer is a blend of duty, timing, and a bit of sporting passion. Prince William and Kate embarked on separate high-profile engagements. Tennis fans were in for a treat as Middleton made a solo appearance at the Wimbledon men’s final on Sunday. But why wasn’t her royal counterpart by her side, casting those admiring glances we’re so used to? Find out!

   

Why Was Prince William MIA?

Princess Kate was scheduled for a rare public appearance at Wimbledon following her previous health scare. Kensington Palace confirmed she would be gracing the Royal Box on Centre Court to witness the thrilling magic. It was a face-off between defending champion Carlos Alcaraz and the legendary Novak Djokovic.

Moreover, not only would she watch the match, but Kate also had the prestigious role of presenting the winner’s trophy. Unfortunately, her attendance was confined to Sunday’s men’s final. Hence, the Princess of Wales wasn’t there to watch the women’s final between Jasmine Paolini and Barbora Krejcikova on Saturday. Since 2016, Kate has been the patron of the All England Club.

It’s a role that includes the ceremonial duty of handing over the trophies to the Wimbledon singles champions. However, the royal couple’s calendars clashed significantly this year. The future Queen fulfilled her Wimbledon commitments, while William had a different sporting event on his agenda.

The future King was on duty at the Euro 2024 final match between England and Spain. As President of the Football Association, he was necessary to attend the tournament in Germany. It was so important that it kept him from joining Kate at Wimbledon. Last year, the royal accompanied Kate as she presented Carlos Alcaraz with his first Wimbledon trophy. 

Additionally, her kids were there, including Prince George and Princess Charlotte, adding a touch of family charm to the event. This year, despite George’s notable absence, Kate wasn’t entirely alone. She brought along Princess Charlotte, who charmed everyone in her adorable blue polka-dot dress.
