Many were moved by Princess Catherine’s strength and dedication, admiring her commitment to attending the event despite her health struggles.
Fans took to social media to praise her as an inspiration, highlighting her courage and unwavering sense of duty in the face of personal challenges.
While she couldn’t be present at Wimbledon this year, her parents, Michael and Carol, graced the tournament, with Carol stunning in a floral summer dress paired elegantly with a white jacket, while Michael looked dapper in a blue shirt, yellow tie, and navy blue jacket.
