The Princess of Wales made a rare public appearance at Wimbledon while undergoing cancer treatment. Seeing the glowing and smiling princess alongside her daughter Charlotte touched everyone’s hearts, especially given how rare it is now to see her in public. Read on to discover how people warmly welcomed her.
Wimbledon was all in waves, and enthusiasm. Princess Catherine made a rare public appearance on July 14, 2024, despite her ongoing cancer treatment. The 42-year-old royalty attended the event with her 9-year-old daughter, Charlotte.
As they arrived, they mingled with event organizers before heading to the Royal Box at Centre Court to watch the men’s singles final between Carlos Alcaraz and Novak Djokovic, a repeat of last year’s match. Kate’s sister, Pippa Middleton, also joined them for the day out.
As they took their seats in the front row of the Royal Box, the crowd stood up and gave Princess Kate a standing ovation. Princess Charlotte beamed with pride at her mom, who smiled and waved, clearly touched by the gesture. It was a rare and emotional public appearance for Kate as she continues her cancer treatment.
Wearing a striking purple dress with a modern silhouette, subtle draping, and a distinctive bow detail, she added a touch of royal charm to the final days of Wimbledon, showing off her impeccable style.
Princess Kate and Prince William always make Wimbledon a part of their summer plans, and lately, they’ve been bringing their kids along too. This year, with everyone wondering if Princess Catherine would make it due to her health, the welcome for her was even more heartfelt than usual.
Whether you’re a fan or not, Princess Catherine keeps shining with elegance and strength, loving her role and rocking her personal style with genuine passion, no matter what comes her way.
When people online saw the pictures, they showered the Princess with compliments and messages of joy, expressing happiness that she was in good health and accompanied by her daughter, who appeared very happy. Many comments were along the lines of, “Lovely to see you back” and “So wonderful to see you looking healthy and beautiful. Welcome back, Princess Catherine and Princess Charlotte!” Others remarked, “A girl can’t be prouder of her mom…,” referring to Princess Charlotte accompanying her mom in such a special moment.
As always, some people couldn’t help but criticize, and a few pointed out that Princess Catherine looked different, insinuating she had undergone plastic surgery treatments, with someone writing, “Facelift healing nicely.” However, these comments didn’t reflect the enthusiasm felt by many, even those who didn’t attend the event but saw the pictures from home.
Ever since her cancer diagnosis, every public appearance Princess Catherine makes is rare and precious. However, some have scrutinized whether she has changed her appearance due to her health challenges.
Queen Camilla will take a break from her royal duties after King Charles cancer diagnosis
With Harry and Meghan stepping down from their royal duties and prince Andrew getting estranged from the family, the number of working royals has reduced significantly. Sadly, during the recent months that number lowered even further after Kate Middleton underwent what was described as a “planned” abdominal surgery and King Charles was diagnosed with cancer, forcing both of them to take some time off.
Kate is expected to return to her royal duties not earlier than Easter, while the King shares his time between London, where he receives weekly treatments, and Sandringham, the royal estate in Norfolk, England.
While both royals either cleared their schedules or postponed certain royal engagements, their significant others, as well as other members of the royal family stepped in for them.
Queen Camilla had a tough few weeks where she had to take on a lot of responsibility for the royal family. Among the rest, she led the royal family at the memorial service for the late King Constantine of Greece, and now, according to the Palace, she would also be taking a week off
Camilla is expected to return to her regular duties on March 11, when she is scheduled to lead the Royal Family at Westminster Abbey for the Commonwealth Day service.
During her week off, she would be spending her time with her husband, the King, and the rest of the members of the Firm.
King Charles was diagnosed with a type of cancer following the surgery for an enlarged prostate, but no details have been revealed of the type of the stage of the cancer.
The King himself released a statement recently, thanking everyone for their well-wishes, and then took his time to thank his people once again during his meeting with Prime Minister Rishi Sunak.
When it comes to Kate, the Palace reassured those doubting the severity of her condition with a statement that read, “We were very clear from the outset that the Princess of Wales was out until after Easter and Kensington Palace would only be providing updates when something was significant.”

“I’ve had so many wonderful messages and cards. It’s reduced me to tears most of the time,” King Charles told Sunak.
“I hear there’s been a lot more attention and interest on those main, wonderful cancer charities, many of which I’ve been patron for years,” he added and laughed.
