Kate joined by three special guests as she attends Wimbledon final
The Princess of Wales has made a final show-stopping entrance at Wimbledon, this time bringing along her husband and two oldest kids.
Prince George and Princess Charlotte looked impossibly grown up as they arrived to watch the men’s singles final between Jannik Sinner and Alexander Zverev on Sunday.

Kate looked radiant with her hair out and flowing elegantly, and her muted olive green dress was adorned with a bow pin in the Wimbledon colours of purple and dark green.
Prince George, who turns 13 in just a few days, will soon be towering over his mother. The second in line to the throne looked every bit the young adult in a suit and striped tie as he walked confidently alongside his mum.

Princess Charlotte, 11, wore a blue dress and ballet flats for the occasion.
Dad William, the Prince of Wales, brought up the rear. He may be next in line to the throne but appeared delighted to let his stylish wife and children lead the way.
Missing out on the action was the couple’s youngest child, Prince Louis. Though he’s been famous for often stealing the show with his cheeky behaviour at public events, he’s now eight years old so perhaps beyond the age of such antics.
Regardless, he apparently missed the cut for an invite to the men’s singles final this year at the All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club, of which the Princess of Wales is royal patron.
As always, George and Charlotte stole the show as they joined guests in the Royal Box.

The siblings are no strangers to Wimbledon and seem right at home in the Royal Box. At one point they greeted German Chancellor Friedrich Merz, George looking very grown-up as he shook his hand.
Catherine and Princess Charlotte also shared some sweet mother-daughter moments and were two peas in a pod as they reacted to the action on court.

Radiant in red for women’s singles final
The Princess of Wales arrived at Wimbledon on Saturday (Sunday morning AEST) for the ladies’ singles final looking radiant in a red belted Roland Mouret dress.
Before taking her seat in the Royal Box to watch Karolína Muchová battle her fellow countrywoman Linda Nosková, Kate met with players, officials and volunteers.

The 44-year-old added a ruby and diamond pendant, with matching drop earrings, to complete the look and pulled her long wavy locks into a half up-do to show them off.
The royal, who presented the trophies to the two Czech tennis players at the end of the match, may have chosen the outfit for a few reasons.
Kate is famously good at diplomatic dressing, and the red outfit gave a nod to the Czechia flag, as well as dressing in theme for England’s World Cup match later on Saturday night (7am Sunday AEST).
Many fans online considered the look a nod to the famous strawberries and cream tradition at Wimbledon.
Catherine was seen multiple times at the 2026 tournament.
The princess made an unannounced appearance on July 2, surprising attendees by chatting to them as they queued for entry and even trying her hand at selling tickets.

She was dressed for a summer’s day at the tennis in a blue linen pantsuit by Gabriela Hearst, which she teamed with a white top.
After mingling with fans, she watched two matches, cheering on English players Arthur Fery and Katie Swan as they took on Finland’s Otto Virtanen and the USA’s Madison Keys respectively.
Though we’re used to seeing her in the Royal Box, Catherine opted to sit in the regular courtside seats.

She even participated in the Wimbledon Instagram account’s ‘Overheard’ video series, with hidden microphones capturing snippets of her conversation.
In the candid clip, shared to the page’s thousands of followers, she reacted to the action on court and reflected on the National Three Peaks Challenge she recently completed to raise funds for cancer research.
As royal patron of the All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club – a position she was given by the late Queen Elizabeth II in 2016 – Catherine is a mainstay at Wimbledon each year.
She enjoys watching tennis, and is also a keen player; her new home in Windsor, Forest Lodge, even boasts a court.
