Wimbledon: Kate Middleton 'mortified' after dad's embarrassing Tim Henman encounter

Kate Middleton was "mortified" after encounter between her dad and Tim Henman in Wimbledon, according to reports. The Duchess of Cambridge is a long-time fan of Wimbledon and is often seen in the royal box.

She has been joined over the years with her husband Prince William, Meghan Markle and Prince Edward, Duke of Kent, who was President of the club up until last year. Sometimes she is also accompanied by her parents, Carole and Michael Middleton and her sister Pippa Matthews.

But sometimes bringing her family to a match doesn't always go to plan. Speaking to the BBC, the future Queen said her father made an effort to play it cool in front of former British number one Tim Henman, but ended up leaving her “mortified”.
