Following the match, Kate, who is a patron of the All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club, stepped onto the court to present the championship trophy to Jannik Sinner, who won his first Wimbledon title after defeating Carlos Alcaraz in four sets. The victory also marked Sinner's fourth Grand Slam title.
The royal family's Sunday outing came a day after Princess Kate made her first appearance at Wimbledon this season, continuing a longstanding royal tradition tied to the iconic tournament.
After Saturday's women's final, Kate also presented the championship trophy to Iga Świątek, who delivered a dominant 6-0, 6-0 win over Amanda Anisimova.
The weekend appearance came shortly after Kate opened up about the challenges of recovering from cancer treatment. During a visit to Colchester Hospital in Essex earlier this month, she shared that the post-treatment period has been unexpectedly tough.
"You put on a brave face through treatment," she said at the time. "But actually, the phase afterwards is really difficult. You have to find your new normal and that takes time."
Kate has been a fixture at Wimbledon for over a decade, attending nearly every year since marrying Prince William in 2011 -- except in 2013, when she was advised not to travel late in pregnancy, and in 2020, when the tournament was canceled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Man's tropical steampunk shed up for national award
A man who built his own "steampunk shed" is hoping his labour of love will win him a national award. Ash Robertson from Ipswich was in need of somewhere to work from home when he and his wife welcomed their second child. He decided to build his own shed, made of almost entirely of second hand items from Facebook Marketplace. His cabin meets tiki beach bar with steampunk vibe, blending Victorian and modern elments - has been nominated as a finalist in the Shed of the Year awards. Inspiration for the shed's exterior came when Mr Robertson found a wooden window for sale on social media. This dictated the rest of the build and Mr Robertson made use of cheap cuts of logs from a sawmill. The shed's wooden door originally had a square top, but when Mr Robertson opened the door it would hit the ceiling because he had not accounted for the thickness of the plasterboard. He explained: "I thought what am I going to do? "I went inside... [and thought] let's have a beer and watch some tele and The Hobbit was on. "I thought that's it, I'll cut the top into a curved shape like a hobbit house, so that just happened as a result of watching the film." Inside Mr Robertson has tiki elements including multi-coloured lamps, fish nets across the roof and more, mixed with Victorian styles of furniture and items. He said he was most proud of the immersive interior which he described as "tropical steampunk". "People can walk through the threshold and I say, first of all do you still feel like you're in Ipswich? "Do you feel like it's 2025? No I feel like it's 1880, something like that. Where in the world do you think you are? What's happening? Who are you? "It triggers this creative part of the mind that we all have... that perhaps some of us, certainly adults, as we get older you don't write stories like you do when you were a kid. It's such a shame." The shed has been named Redondo Trading, inspired by Redondo Beach in California in the United States where Mr Robertson and his wife went on their honeymoon and where the tiki style bar originated from. The shed is a finalist in the cabin/summerhouse category of the Shed of the Year awards and people can vote online for their favourite. Follow Suffolk news on BBC Sounds, Facebook, Instagram and X.

Construction of 'amazing' new theatre underway
Construction work has started on a town's "amazing" new 200-seat theatre. Contractors have moved into The Hexagon in Reading to begin building the new Studio Theatre, which will also have backstage facilities and an upgraded technical area. A ceremony marking the start of the work on Monday was attended by Reading Borough Council councillors, including leader Liz Terry. She said: "I am so pleased we are now at the point where this transformative work is beginning to create a new purpose-built venue." She said the new theatre would provide "amazing new facilities" for the town. "The new Studio Theatre is also set to be at the heart of a regeneration for that area of the town as part of the Minster Quarter," she said. The council said the new theatre had been designed to be flexible, with the foyer doubling as a rehearsal and community space. The seating in the theatre itself will also be removeable, to create a standing space for 300 people. Accessible entrances are also going to be installed. Lead councillor for culture Adele Barnett-Ward said the new facility would attract a wide range of cultural acts. "The arts are such a vital part of the town and people's lives," he said. "I cannot wait to see the first shows in the new Studio Theatre and see community groups use the space." The first stage of the work will involve the demolition of the backstage area, dock and stage door area. Shows will pause for 11 weeks to allow the work to begin, and will resume on 27 September with a temporary back of house area in place. The new Studio Theatre will be open to the public in spring 2027. You can follow BBC Berkshire on Facebook, X (Twitter), or Instagram.
