Kate Middleton, the princess of Wales, arrives at the All England Club for the Wimbledon men’s final, only her second public appearance since announcing she was diagnosed with cancer.
Kate, wife of heir to the throne Prince William, is expected to sit in the Royal Box at Centre Court during the championship match between Novak Djokovic and Carlos Alcaraz.
Since 2016, the princess has been the patron of the club that hosts the annual grass-court Grand Slam tournament. Her ceremonial duties include handing out the winner’s trophies after the singles finals, although she was not on hand yesterday when Barbora Krejcikova defeated Jasmine Paolini for the women’s title.
Kate revealed in March that she has cancer and was undergoing chemotherapy. Her lone public appearance since then was attending last month’s birthday parade for King Charles III. Before that event, she released a statement saying she was “making good progress” but still had “good days and bad days.”
