The Princess of Wales has made her first appearance at Wimbledon 2024 alongside her daughter Princess Charlotte.
From their seats in the Royal Box, Princess Kate, 42, and Charlotte, nine, watched Serbia's Novak Djokovic and Spain's Carlos Alcaraz battle it out on Centre Court in their bid to be crowned Wimbledon champ. Later on, Kate is expected to present the trophy to the winner.
Princess Kate's outing comes amid her ongoing cancer treatment and just weeks after she attended Trooping the Colour.
In an update about her health ahead of the King's birthday parade, Kate said that she is "making good progress" but "there are good days and bad days".
