Kate Middleton's 'long-held' promise to Princess Charlotte she kept at Wimbledon after feeling mum 'guilt'

Catherine, Princess of Wales talks with Princess Charlotte of Wales in the Royal Box at the start of the Mens Singles Final at Wimbledon on July 14th, 2024.

The Princess of Wales has rarely missed Wimbledon since becoming a senior royal and that included the championships in 2024. She was still undergoing cancer treatment at the time and had only made one other public appearance that year, making her attendance at the Men's Singles Final even more significant.
