This surprising royal could step in for Princess Kate if she is unable to attend Wimbledon

Wimbledon Birgitte Tennis the All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club
Catherine, Princess of Wales at the trophy presentations after the Gentlemen's Singles Final match on Centre Court during the Wimbledon Lawn Tennis Championships at the All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club at Wimbledon on July 16, 2023, in London, England.

Princess Kate is as much of a fixture at Wimbledon as Novak Djokovic, but sadly this year she may not be in attendance at the tennis tournament.

As she continues her cancer treatment, it's possible the Princess of Wales will skip out on Wimbledon this year — meaning she wouldn't be able to hand out trophies to the winners in her capacity as patron of the All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club.
