Will Princess Catherine, a.k.a. Kate Middleton, make her grand entrance at Wimbledon this year while also battling the Big C? The court is abuzz with suspense!
While we’re on the edge of our seats, waiting to see if the Queen of Courts (not to be confused with Queen Elizabeth) will grace us with her presence, she’s got her mind on another royal affair—Sir Andy Murray’s swan song! Yes, our beloved knight of the tennis realm is hanging up his racket, and Princess Kate, the ever-thoughtful patron of the All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club, isn’t missing a beat.
On the fateful day of July 6, a Saturday to remember, the 42-year-old Princess of Wales hit the social media stage. With the grace of a thousand swans, she issued a heartfelt statement to our favorite 37-year-old tennis champ, Andy Murray, who’s gearing up for his final Wimbledon showdown.
“An incredible Wimbledon career comes to an end. You should be so very proud @andymurray. On behalf of all of us, thank you,” she declared, sprinkling a bit of royal pixie dust on the Instagram account she shares with her partner in royal crime, Prince William. And with a flourish, she signed it with a simple yet regal “C.”
Now, let’s take a trip down memory lane! Our dazzling duchess has been Wimbledon’s VIP since 2014, dazzling us with her impeccable style and enthusiasm for the game (we’ll just pretend 2020 didn’t happen—thanks, pandemic!). Yet, the million-pound question remains: will she pop up at the tournament before the final curtain call on July 14? Stay tuned, for the royal spectacle continues!
