Publish date: Monday، 15 July 2024

Princess Kate, the beloved Princess of Wales, received a standing ovation at Wimbledon on Sunday. This marked her second public appearance this year as she continues her cancer treatment.

The tennis enthusiast and patron of the All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club arrived in a vibrant purple dress, accompanied by her daughter, Princess Charlotte. They attended the men's singles final between Carlos Alcaraz and Novak Djokovic.

As she took her seat in Centre Court's royal box, a beaming Kate waved to spectators, many waving Union Jack flags, who stood to cheer her arrival. Later, she had the honor of presenting the trophy to Alcaraz, who triumphed over Djokovic in three sets.

The 42-year-old Princess, wife of Prince William, heir to the throne, underwent major abdominal surgery in January, revealing cancer. She has been receiving preventative chemotherapy since February.

Kate made her public return in June at the "Trooping the Colour," the annual military parade celebrating King Charles's official birthday. She expressed her hopes to attend more events over the summer, stating, "I am making good progress, but as anyone going through chemotherapy will know, there are good days and bad days."

Kensington Palace has not disclosed specific details about the type of cancer or her medical condition, only confirming the ongoing treatment.

King Charles, 75, has also been undergoing cancer treatment. He returned to public duties in April and has remained active, though his schedule has been adjusted to minimize risks during his recovery.
