Princess Kate made her annual appearance at the Wimbledon finals, accompanied by her family this year. The Duchess of Cambridge was joined by her husband Prince William, their eldest son Prince George, and daughter Princess Charlotte on Sunday to watch the men’s singles final.
Although Prince Louis has not yet attended Wimbledon, Prince George and Princess Charlotte have been to the tournament multiple times with their parents. The family arrived together to witness the match between Jannik Sinner and Alexander Zverev at Centre Court, where they were greeted by guests before taking their seats in the royal box.
During the introductions, British Wimbledon semi-finalist Arthur Fery invited Prince George and Princess Charlotte to play tennis with him. Prince William and Kate congratulated Fery on his semi-final run and wished him a happy birthday as he turned 24. Fery expressed his delight at meeting the Princess and extended an open invitation for the royal kids to play tennis with him in the future.
Throughout the intense final match, Prince George wore sunglasses and a hat to shield himself from the sun, using a hand-held fan to stay cool. Princess Charlotte was engaged in conversation with her mother, who appeared to be explaining the game’s rules or tactics.
As the patron of the All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club, Kate presented Jannik Sinner with the Wimbledon trophy after his victory over Alexander Zverev, securing back-to-back Wimbledon wins. Kate commended Sinner for his fantastic performance and expressed how inspiring it was for George and Charlotte to witness such high-level tennis.
After the match, Jannik had a conversation with the young royals, inquiring if Prince George still played tennis, to which the 12-year-old confirmed his continued interest in the sport. The interaction was filled with applause and discussions about the match, showcasing the royal family’s enthusiasm for tennis at Wimbledon.
