The Princess of Wales announced that she had cancer in March and has since being undergoing preventative chemotherapy.

Kate has shown her love for sports time and time again with numerous appearances at Wimbledon and various charity events.

Earlier this week, the Princess paid tribute to Andy Murray ‘s ‘incredible Wimbledon career’ as the tennis star is said to be ‘absolutely devastated’ after Emma Raducanu pulled out of their doubles match.

Kate took to social media and penned: ‘An incredible Wimbledon career comes to an end . You should be so very proud Andy Murray. On behalf of all of us, thank you! C,’ Kate said in personally-signed message on X.
