Kate Middleton's Best Wimbledon Looks Ahead of Her 2025 Appearances
She often saves her brightest, boldest colors for the tennis tournament, standing out sartorially in the Royal Box. British labels like Emilia Wickstead and Roksanda are among her favorites for the occasion along with fashion-favorite Alessandra Rich. Her polka dot selections from the London-based Italian designer remain among the royal's most striking dresses.
What is equally exciting about Kate at Wimbledon is her reactions. While most royal occasions call for steely disposition, Wimbledon allows Kate to move from spectated to spectator. She smiles, has her hands on her face, and makes as many 'oohs' and 'aahs' as anyone else there.
With the 2025 Championships beginning on June 30, Kate is set to traverse the steps into the Royal Box again. Last year, following her cancer diagnosis and treatment, she was welcomed with a lengthy standing ovation. And the same sort of reaction is likely for Wimbledon 2025, too.
While the world waits for the games to start, here's the Princess of Wales's best Wimbledon looks so far.
The Princess of Wales was greeted with a round of applause when she arrived in the Royal Box at Centre Court wearing a purple Safiyaa dress.

Trump-approved portrait hangs in Colorado Capitol after ‘purposefully distorted' version was replaced
A self-approved portrait of President Trump now hangs in the Colorado Capitol – replacing an earlier version he ripped as 'purposefully distorted' and 'truly the worst.' The new portrait, created by Arizona-based Christian worship artist Vanessa Horabuena, is displayed in the third-floor rotunda of the Denver building's wall of past presidents, occupying the same spot where Sarah Boardman's original painting had hung since 2019. The latest display, donated by the White House, mirrors Trump's intense official presidential photo, depicting him leaning slightly forward with a furrowed brow and a steely gaze. 4 Trump's new portrait, created by Arizona-based Christian worship artist Vanessa Horabuena. AP 'Thank you to the Highly Talented Artist, Vanessa Horabuena, and the incredible people of Colorado,' the commander in chief posted on Truth Social Tuesday. 'Now on display at the Colorado State Capitol!' The previous portrait, featuring a much younger version of Trump, was removed from the famed wall back in March after the president randomly took to social media to criticize it – despite its six-year run on display. The original painting was commissioned after former Colorado Senate President Kevin Grantham, a Republican, raised more than $10,000 through a GoFundMe account during Trump's first term. 4 Trump's original portrait was removed after he lambasted the painting in March. Denver Post via Getty Images 'Nobody likes a bad picture or painting of themselves, but the one in Colorado, in the State Capitol, put up by the Governor, along with all other Presidents, was purposefully distorted to a level that even I, perhaps, have never seen before,' Trump raged in March. 'The artist also did President Obama, and he looks wonderful, but the one of me is truly the worst. She must have lost her talent as she got older.' 4 Portraits of Bill Clinton, George W. Bush, Barack Obama, and Donald Trump displayed at the Colorado State Capitol. Denver Post via Getty Images The Colorado Building Advisory Committee, not the governor, oversees the portraits. Boardman, who received backlash following the president's scathing comments, previously told The Denver Post that it was important for her portraits of both Trump and Obama to appear 'apolitical.' 4 Wall of presidential portraits in the Colorado State Capitol featuring Trump's latest creation. AP Colorado Democrats, who are in charge of the legislature, eventually agreed to take the painting down at the request of local Republican leaders. Lois Court, a former state lawmaker who chairs the Capitol Building Advisory Committee, said she received the Trump-endorsed portrait over a month ago and decided on Thursday to hang it this week. 'There was a blank on the wall,' she said. 'It seemed inappropriate. We knew that the White House had sent us this replacement and it simply made sense to put it up.' With Post wires

'Seize this moment': Pope Leo XIV's hometown approves purchase of house where he grew up
Burt Odelson, Dolton's attorney who orchestrated the deal, told USA TODAY that the owner of the house agreed to sell at an undisclosed price amid threats of Dolton taking the house via eminent domain. DOLTON, IL – The tiny hamlet where Pope Leo XIV was raised landed a miracle on July 1 after a village board approved the purchase of the house where he grew up, a move they hope will spark a revival for the blighted small town. The Dolton Village Board approved the purchase at a special meeting on July 1, marking a coup for the small town that's experienced rough decades amid a loss of manufacturing jobs and a previous corrupt mayor. Many thought Dolton didn't have the money or political will to land the little ranch house where Leo played priest as a young Robert Francis Prevost. "We can either seize this moment and move forward or let it go to an investor," said Dolton Mayor Jason House, addressing the crowd at the public meeting. "You cannot cut your way out of a deficit — you have to make sure you have economic opportunities." Childhood homes of Leo's predecessors have also become museums and pilgrimage sites, drawing hundreds of thousands of people. It's expected that Leo's house will also become a museum or shrine, USA TODAY previously reported. People from around the country have already begun treating it as a pilgrimage site. Some began arriving within hours of the announcement that Leo had become pope on May 8. Attorney on the deal: 'This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity' Dolton's approval of the purchase also comes as a surprise — the house was in the process of being sold at an auction that was supposed to close July 17, according to the listing. Village attorney Burt Odelson, who orchestrated the deal, told USA TODAY that the homeowner agreed to sell outside of the auction. Auctioneer Paramount Realty, a New York-based firm known for selling the childhood home of President Donald Trump for over $2 million, did not immediately respond to USA TODAY's requests for comment. Homeowner Paweł Radzik did not immediately respond either. Odelson declined to share the final price but said it was "significantly lower than what they thought they would get." He said he had secured financing for the purchase and that the paperwork would be completed in about a week. The prominent Chicago attorney said the owner agreed to sell in response to threats that Dolton would take the house via eminent domain. Odelson described the coup as a capstone in his decades-long career. "Even for me, who's done a lot and seen a lot, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity," said the South Side Chicago native. "I've dealt with presidents, senators, mayors, but there's always another one. Not for this— he's the only American pope." The Pope Leo effect: Many US Catholics don't fully practice their faith. Could Leo's papacy change that?

Pop Singer ‘Can't Remember' How Many Abortions She's Had
Pop Singer 'Can't Remember' How Many Abortions She's Had originally appeared on Parade. Lily Allen did not hold back while reflecting on her history of abortions. The 'Smile' singer, 40, spoke candidly about the topic during the Monday, June 30, episode of her 'Miss Me?' podcast with cohost Miquita Oliver. 'I have an IUD now, I think I'm on my third, maybe fourth, and I just remember, before that was a complete disaster area,' Allen said. 'I'd get pregnant all the time.' When Oliver expressed her surprise, Allen jokingly began singing to the tune of Frank Sinatra's song 'My Way.' 🎬 SIGN UP for Parade's Daily newsletter to get the latest pop culture news & celebrity interviews delivered right to your inbox 🎬 'Abortions, I've had a few, but then again, I can't remember exactly how many,' she quipped. With a laugh, Allen confirmed that she could not recall the actual number of abortions she'd had in the past. 'I can't remember,' she said. 'I think maybe, like … I want to say four or five.' Allen then recounted one of her previous experiences with abortion. 'I remember once getting pregnant and the man paying for my abortion and me thinking it was so romantic,' she shared. 'I'll tell you how romantic it was — I don't think he texted me after!' Oliver, for her part, believed she'd also had 'about five' abortions, agreeing that getting an IUD 'really changed' her life because she 'stopped getting abortions.' 'The pattern would be: Unfortunately, get pregnant, like, not want to be, have an abortion, then while I was sedated in said abortion, they'd give me a coil,' Oliver recalled, noting that she 'can't quite remember' why she ultimately got the IUD removed each time. This is not the first time Allen has been forthcoming about the matter. In 2022, she received support from fans after revealing that she'd had an abortion in the past. 'I wish people would stop posting examples of exceptional reasons for having abortions,' she wrote via her Instagram Story at the time while advocating for the pro-choice movement. 'Most people I know, myself included, just didn't want to have a f-----g baby. And that is reason enough! We don't have to justify it.' Allen now shares two daughters, Ethel, 13, and Marnie, 12, with ex-husband Sam Cooper.
