Kate's chic number, by Alessandra Rich, featured pleats going down its front, quarter-length sleeves, padded shoulders and a waist-accentuating belt. She paired the look perfectly with coordinating pointy heels and her signature wavy long hair.
David Walliams was also in the Royal Box
It's no surprise to see Kate at the Championships since she is patron of the All England Lawn Tennis Club, having taken over the role from the Queen back in 2016. She has been a regular at the tournament since before she became a royal.
There was a tense moment during the match
Over the years, Kate has been joined in the royal box by her husband, Prince William, as well as her sister-in-law, the Duchess of Sussex, and Kate's sister, Pippa Middleton.
