Kate was seen in the stands taking part in a Mexican wave on day 13 of Wimbledon as she watched Gordon Reid, of Great Britain, during his men's wheelchair singles final match against Joachim Gerard, of Belgium.

She was accompanied by her father Michael and CEO of the Lawn Tennis Association, Scott Lloyd.

Kate is also patron of the All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club (AELTC).

She was then seen giving a fingers crossed for her support for the England team later that day.

Kate missed most of Wimbledon when she was forced into isolation after coming into contact with a Covid-19 case – and on her second day back at The Championships she seemed happy to be free.

Earlier, Kate presented Aussie winner Ash Barty with her trophy, asking her if she spoke to her family the night before she stepped onto Centre Court for one of the biggest matches of her life.

"Yeah I called my niece and nephew and they were so excited," Barty told Middleton.

"I know they're up watching now."
