Kate Middleton Steps Out in Style at Wimbledon After COVID-19 Scare
A royal source told CNN that the duchess is tested for COVID-19 twice a week with lateral flow tests and that those she took before her engagements last week, including her July 2 Wimbledon trip, were negative. Kate also followed the rules throughout Wimbledon on mask-wearing, the insider added.
Australian tennis star Ashleigh Barty cinched her first Wimbledon title after beating Czech player Karolina Pliskova at Saturday’s event.
“What an incredible match and performance by both athletes!” read a message on Kate and William’s Instagram page. “Congratulations @ashbarty on being crowned #Wimbledon champion. It was amazing to see the atmosphere and support from the fans echoing through centre court once again. Well done to @Wimbledon and the staff on continuing to make the Championships such a special event.”
In recent days, Kate’s sister Pippa Middleton and husband James Matthews, the siblings’ parents Carole Middleton and Michael Middleton, William’s pregnant cousin Princess Beatrice and her husband Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi, the duke and the princess’ aunt Sophie, Countess of Wessex and their cousin Zara Tindall and husband Mike Tindall were all spotted at Wimbledon.
