Kate Middleton has always been a passionate tennis lover. Therefore, it wasn’t a surprise that she appeared at the Wimbledon tennis finals last weekend. The Princess of Wales was visibly touched by the standing ovation she received, with Princess Charlotte and Prince George by her side.

However, Prince Louis‘ Wimbledon debut has to wait. Still, Kate Middleton made a sweet comment about her youngest son, confirming what we all knew about her.

Kate Middleton was a promising tennis player during her youth. While she didn’t become a professional tennis player, the sport has always been close to her heart.

She has moved on to share her passion for tennis with her children, with Prince George and Princess Charlotte both taking up the sport. Also, every year, it has been tradition for Kate, alongside at least one of her children, to attend the Wimbledon finals.

Even though she received her cancer diagnosis last year in March, some months later, she made sure that even though she had left the public spotlight, she would not miss the legendary tennis tournament.

This year, things seem way more positive. Kate Middleton has proclaimed she is in remission amid her cancer treatment, and what better way to celebrate than attending a sporting event with her children.

Kate Middleton moved by standing ovation at Wimbledon
The Princess of Wales was joined by daughter Princess Charlotte at Wimbledon for the third year in a row as they watched the women’s final on Saturday a week ago between Polish player Iga Swiontek and the US’s Amanda Anisimova from the Royal Box.

Also, on Sunday, Prince George joined his sister and mother, alongside father Prince William, when Italian Jannick Sinner beat Spain’s Carlos Alcaraz to take home the Wimbledon Men’s title.

Kate Middleton was met with a standing ovation as she entered the stadium, looking overwhelmed and touched by the warmth of the reception. Meanwhile, after the men’s final, she and her family got to meet the men’s champion Jannick Sinner.

The Italian signed three tennis balls Princess Charlotte was holding, and although Prince Louis wasn’t with them, Kate made sure that her youngest son wouldn’t be forgotten.

Sweet comment about Prince Louis being “upset”
Louis is still only seven years old and has not yet had the opportunity to make his Wimbledon debut. He is still younger than George and Charlotte when they attended the finals for the first time.

In footage from the BBC, per Access Hollywood, Sinner, 23, was seen speaking to Prince George and Princess Charlotte as he was signing the tennis balls. He was asked about how he would celebrate the win, and as Kate saw him signing the balls for the children, Kate said, “Thank you so much, that’s really kind,” Princess Kate told the Italian sports star.

“We brought one for their brother as well,” she added, to which Prince William said, “Louis would be very upset otherwise,” as they both laughed.

It wasn’t the only comment about Prince Louis that Kate uttered in the days surrounding the Wimbledon final. As she visited an exhibit of items from the Royal Collection at Windsor Castle on Tuesday, she jokingly compared her 7-year-old to a former monarch.

“I should know,” Kate said, per Hello Magazine, while viewing a portrait of a young King Louis XIV, who ruled France from 1643 to 1715.

Fans concerned over Kate Middleton’s health during Wimbledon appearance
The Wimbledon appearance made many fans overjoyed. Kate Middleton appears to be doing well following her announcement of remission, but some have doubts. Parade reported that fans took to Reddit to share their delight, but also their concern.

“It’s a chic and elegant outfit, she looks beautiful,” one said, with another adding, “Its nice to see her out and about after her cancer battle! Wishing her the best!”

Some, sadly, expressed grave concerns for the Princess of Wales’ health

“Her arms…my god, she does not look well,” one wrote.

Another claimed, “Her face doesn’t look that gaunt yet her body is so thin,” with a third commenting, “She looks painfully thin, but still angelically, dazzlingly beautiful.”

Kate Middleton has repeatedly praised doctors and nurses for their hard work during her own cancer treatment. Additionally, the Princess of Wales has made it a point to visit numerous cancer patients and hospitals to share her story and offer support to those in similar situations.

In early June, Kate visited Colchester Hospital in Essex, where she once again met cancer patients and spent time in a specially designed garden intended as a restorative space for those undergoing treatment.

Kate Middleton opened up about “life-changing” moment during cancer treatment
She opened up about her cancer journey during the visit, saying that the time after the treatment was not what she expected.

“You put on a sort of brave face, stoicism through treatment. Treatment’s done, then it’s like, ‘I can crack on, get back to normal,’ but actually, the phase afterwards is really, really difficult,” Kate Middleton said.

“You’re not necessarily under the clinical team any longer, but you’re not able to function normally at home as you perhaps once used to. And actually, someone to help talk you through that, show you and guide you through that sort of phase that comes after treatment, I think is really valuable.”

The Princess of Wales added that it was “life-changing,” concluding, “You have to find your new normal and that takes time…and it’s a rollercoaster, it’s not smooth, like you expect it to be,” she said. “But the reality is you go through hard times.”
