Catherine, Princess of Wales, will make a public appearance at the Wimbledon tennis championship in London this Sunday. This marks a significant step in her gradual return to public life following her cancer diagnosis earlier this year.
The princess, a beloved member of the royal family, had scaled back her official duties after undergoing abdominal surgery in January. In March, she revealed that she had started chemotherapy, sparking widespread concern for her health.
After maintaining a low profile for several months, Catherine made a public statement in June during the Trooping the Color ceremony at Buckingham Palace, celebrating the king’s birthday.
On Sunday, she will be present at the gentlemen’s singles final at Wimbledon, where Carlos Alcaraz will compete against Novak Djokovic. The match is set to begin at 2 p.m. London time.
Known for her love of sports, Catherine has been a regular attendee at Wimbledon, serving as the patron of the All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club since 2016. Although she did not attend the women’s final, she has previously presented trophies to the winners.
Her husband, Prince William, will also be attending a major sporting event on the same day – the final of Euro 2024 in Berlin, where the English men’s soccer team will face Spain at 9 p.m. local time.
Meanwhile, the royal family has been facing challenges, with King Charles III battling cancer and Princess Anne recovering from a concussion after a recent hospitalization.
