New Delhi, India
British royal Kate Middleton is back at Wimbledon, and this time with her daughter Princess Charlotte. On Sunday (July 14), the Duchess of Cambridge looked ravishing as she stepped out to attend the men’s final match between Carlos Alcaraz and Novak Djokovic. Kate's rare public appearance comes as she continues to receive treatment for her cancer.
Kate was joined by her daughter, Princess Charlotte, for the big tournament at the All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club in London. Continuing her duty as the patron of the All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club, Kate will present the trophy to the winner.

After skipping the entire tournament due to her health crises, the Duchess of Cambridge is back at the stadium with her glowing smile. For the day outing, the princess, who is undergoing preventative chemotherapy for cancer, opted for an elegant purple dress with balloon sleeves by Safiyaa. She accessorised her look with golden earrings, bracelets and a diamond blue ring. Meanwhile, Prince Charlotte was looking cute in the casual blue polka dot dress.

This is Princess Charlotte's second time at Wimbledon. In 2023, she made her Wimbledon debut as she joined her parents and big brother, Prince George.
Before walking inside the main stadium, Kate and Princess Charlotte greeted several British tennis players, including 2021 US Open champion Emma Raducanu.
Months after sharing her cancer diagnosis with the world, Kate made her first public appearance in June when she attended the Trooping the Colour ceremony in London.
