The Princess of Wales is on the fence about attending the men’s singles tennis final at Wimbledon on Sunday, pending a green light from her doctors to make the visit.
Prince William will be going to Germany to watch England play the Euro final against Spain after defeating Netherlands yesterday.
“If William was available then it would not have been a big deal. But with him attending the final in Germany, Kate may have to step up and attend the Wimbledon final as the patron of the All England Lawn Tennis Club”, a Royal expert commented.
The future King, who is the patron of Britain’s Football Association, won’t be supporting his wife as he is set to travel to Germany that day to cheer on the English soccer team in the final of the European Football Championship, where England will face Spain.
William has previously attended two matches of his favorite game without Kate Middleton.
If England wins, it will be their first international tournament victory since the 1966 World Cup.
Princess Kate, the patron of the All England Lawn Tennis Club, has presented trophies at the tournament since 2016.
She would “dearly love” to attend the ceremony this year. Her office has not ruled it out, and Wimbledon officials have said they will announce her attendance on the day of the finals. The men’s final is on Sunday, and the women’s final is on Saturday.
Buckingham Palace also shared King Charles’s humorous message of congratulations to England’s soccer team after the result, urging them to “secure victory before the need for any last-minute wonder-goals” for the sake of “the nation’s collective heart rate and blood pressure.”
It is worth mentioning that England’s decisive goal was scored in the 91st minute by a player who had been substituted on as the game drew to a close.
