Kate, who is patron of
the All England Lawn Tennis Club, is set to watch the ladies’ final
between Elena Rybakina and Ons Jabeur.
Prince William, who is not
present at the tournament, is due to join his wife to watch the men’s final on
Sunday, which will see Nick Kyrgios go up against Novak Djokovic.
The Duchess has opted for a
stunning yellow Roksanda dress for the sun-soaked occasion.
Kate is truly glowing
Kate is an avid tennis fan.
Back in 2017, during an appearance on the BBC documentary, Sue Barker: Our
Wimbledon, Kate shared some insightful anecdotes about her tennis-loving family
– including one moment when her dad Michael Middleton left her feeling
“mortified”.

She recalled the moment her
father tried to play it cool in front of the former British number one tennis
player Tim Henman, telling broadcaster Sue: “My father is not going to
appreciate this but we were walking past Tim Henman and we had just seen
Sampras play. My dad said very coolly, ‘Hi Pete’. I was mortified!”

Speaking about her love for
the sport, Kate said: “I have watched Wimbledon, that was very much part
of my growing up. It’s such a quintessential part of the English summer, and I
think it really inspires youngsters, myself, it inspired me when I was younger
to get involved in the game. It hasn’t changed either, I think that’s what’s so
wonderful.”
Laughing, Kate also revealed:
“Roger [Federer] is my mother’s heartthrob. I don’t think she will mind me
saying that! I think he probably knows that too.”

Earlier this week, Kate and
Prince William were among the spectators at Wimbledon and were joined by her
parents Michael and Carole. They watched Novak Djokovic beat Jannik Sinner in
the quarter-final before witnessing British hopeful Cameron Norrie’s victory
over David Goffin.
