The battle with malignant cancer did not take away from her charm. Princess of Wales Kate Middleton (42) lit up the All England Club not only with an elegant purple outfit, but also with her stunning smile.
This time the duchess missed the women’s singles on Saturday, but she couldn’t miss the last match of the men’s tournament between Alcaraz and Djokovic a day later. A thunderous applause greeted her. And it suited her in such a way that one would not believe that she had weeks of fierce treatment for an evil disease. “I’m glad to be back,” she said.
Fans couldn’t take their eyes off her in a gorgeous dress by Safiyaa. At the same time, she was giving her daughter Charlotte (9) a lesson in royal behavior at the famous club of which she is a patron. A little lady with a precise hairstyle and in a polka dot dress made a charming mother’s guard. In the royal box, Duchess Kate was accompanied by her sister Pippa, who is two years younger.
Smiles with a champion
Even women’s winner Barbora Krejčíková (28) did not have to be sorry that Kate missed her match. In the bowels of the clubhouse, they congratulated her and Charlotte in person and had an informal chat with everyone. In return, the tennis player gave them her championship racket.
Then Kate and her daughter went to the center court, where the duchess decorated the champion Alcaraz after the match. In the duel for the cup, the Spaniard defeated the veteran Djokovic smoothly in three sets 6:2, 6:2, 7:6.
Krejčíková had a warm chat with Kate and Charlotte and exchanged not only compliments.
