Princess Kate (42) wants to come to the tennis tournament at Wimbledon. She will attend the men's final on Sunday, Kensington Palace in London announced. The daughter-in-law of King Charles III announced her cancer diagnosis a few months ago. She did not attend public appointments for a long time, only appearing at the Trooping the Color military parade in London in mid-June.

Now Kate, who is married to Prince William, heir to the British throne, is to attend the traditional tennis tournament. Kate is patron of the All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club and has often attended the tournament in the past.

Second appearance for Britain's future Queen

In the men's singles final this Sunday, the Serbian record Grand Slam tournament winner Novak Djokovic and the Spanish defending champion Carlos Alcaraz will meet. It will be Kate's second public appearance in a long time.

She underwent abdominal surgery in January. In March, she announced in a video that she had cancer and was receiving chemotherapy as a precaution. Her father-in-law Charles is also being treated for cancer, but has been back on the road for a long time attending appointments. The royal family has not revealed what type of cancer is involved.
