Instead, the Princess of Wales went to the<br \/>\noutside courts for her first glimpse of the tennis for the<br \/>\nyear.<\/p>\n<p>Sitting with former British number one and semi finalist, Tim<br \/>\nHenman, the Princess watched the country\u2019s latest hope, Arthur<br \/>\nFery, as he played out a four set win to move into the third round<br \/>\nof the men\u2019s singles.<\/p>\n<p>Kate also made it courtside to see Katie Swan in action against<br \/>\nMadison Keys. She had Wimbledon royalty with her for that match as<br \/>\ntwo times singles champion, Sir Andy Murray, joined the Princess of<br \/>\nWales in the stands.<\/p>\n<p>There was a style moment, too, as Kate chose to wear trousers to<br \/>\nWimbledon for the first time ever. Despite it being 2026, there<br \/>\nstill appeared to be some surprise that the Princess of Wales, who<br \/>\noften wears trouser suits on royal engagements, had decided to<br \/>\nditch the dresses for her visit to SW19.<\/p>\n<p>This is Kate\u2019s first official appearance since completing the<br \/>\narduous Three Peaks challenge at the weekend. The climb involves<br \/>\nscaling the highest peaks in England, Scotland and Wales in a 24<br \/>\nhour period. The Princess of Wales said she wanted to do the<br \/>\nchallenge as she was so glad ot be able to, after recovering from<br \/>\ncancer which was diagnosed in 2024. She also wanted to raise<br \/>\nsupport for the Royal Marsden Cancer Charity \u2013 the Princess of<br \/>\nWales was treated at the Royal Marsden when she underwent<br \/>\npreventative chemotherapy after cancer was discovered during major<br \/>\nabdominal surgery. Kate later announced she is in remission.<\/p>\n<p>The Princess of Wales is expected to return to Wimbledon several<br \/>\ntimes in the coming days and will present the trophies at the Men\u2019s<br \/>\nand Women\u2019s Singles Finals which take place on 11 and 12 July.<\/p>\n<p><span id=\"tbmarker\"\/>  <\/div>\n<p><em> \u2018 The preceding article may include information circulated by third parties \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em> \u2018 Some details of this article were extracted from the following source royalcentral.co.uk \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Princess of Wales headed straight for the ticket queue as she made her first visit to Wimbledon of 2026.
