More info Kensington Palace has confirmed Kate Middleton will make a rare public appearance at Wimbledon on Sunday. Kate is set to attend the final of the men's singles tournament. The Princess of Wales will present the trophy to either Novak Djokovic or Carlos Alcaraz.
However, she will not attend today and Wimbledon chairwoman, Debbie Jevans, will present the women’s champion trophy on her behalf to either Jasmine Paolini or Barbora Krejcikova. Since disclosing her cancer diagnosis in March, Kate has kept a very low profile. She made a return to the spotlight for Trooping the Colour just last month and also shared a health update, saying that she is "making good progress" but "there are good days and bad days".
She said she hopes that she can "join a few public engagements over the summer" while also noting, "I am not out of the woods yet", reports the Mirror. Speaking earlier this month Ms Jevans didn't rule out an appearance entirely, confirming that organisers are "staying flexible" over who will conduct the trophy presentation if the Princess is unable to do so this year. Debbie told Telegraph Sport: "We're hopeful that the Princess of Wales will be able to present the trophies as the Club's patron, but her health and recovery is the priority.
We do.
