The Princess Of Wales Brought Charlotte, George And William To Wimbledon
THE RUNDOWN On Sunday, Kate Middleton made an appearance at Wimbledon for the second day in a row, this time joined by her husband, Prince William, and their two older children, Princess Charlotte and Prince George. Their youngest, Prince Louis, did not join the family in their box at the All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club this time. The group was there to watch Italy's Jannik Sinner compete against Spain's Carlos Alcaraz, with Princess Kate ultimately handing Sinner the Gentlemen's Singles Trophy for his win. For the event, Kate wore a royal blue dress with a deep V-neckline, padded shoulders, and a long flowing skirt. On her feet, she wore a pair of Ralph Lauren Collection Celia Calfskin Pumps and accessorized with hoop earrings and a pendant necklace. In the audience, the Princess of Wales beat the heat with a straw hat and a white fan. Charlotte was carrying her own matching fan, which she and her mom waved in between sharing comments on the game. The young princess was wearing a white dress trimmed in black with scalloped sleeves. She had her hair half up in braids and wore white patent leather Mary Janes. Kate was appointed as patron of the All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club in 2016 by Queen Elizabeth. On her lapel, the princess wore a purple and green ribbon in honor of her role. On Friday, she sported the same bow while watching Amanda Anisimova face off against Iga Swiatek in the women's singles final. For that event, Kate dressed in a white blazer top belted at the waist with a pleated white skirt. She presented the Venus Rosewater Dish to Swiatek for her win. On July 2, during a visit to Colchester Hospital in Essex, Kate opened up about figuring out her new life balance following cancer treatment. The princess announced she was in remission in January of this year after completing chemotherapy last September. 'You put on a sort of brave face, stoicism through treatment. Treatment's done, then it's like, "I can crack on, get back to normal,"' she shared. 'But actually, the phase afterwards is really, really difficult.' She continued, 'You have to find your new normal and that takes it's a rollercoaster, it's not smooth, like you expect it to be. But the reality is you go through hard times.'

The Princess Of Wales Wears Ivory White Blazer Top And Pleated Skirt To Wimbledon
THE RUNDOWN On Saturday, Princess of Wales - also known as Kate Middleton - returned to Wimbledon to watch Amanda Anisimova face off against Iga Swiatek in the women's singles final, having been given the solemn duty of presenting the winner with her trophy. When the Princess of Wales took her place in the royal box at Centre Court, she was greeted with applause. Kate wore a monochrome ivory look, with a blazer top belted at the waist and a calf-length pleated skirt. On her feet were a pair of pointed nude pumps and she carried a woven white handbag. She left her hair down and wore small hoops in her ears and had on a thin gold bracelet and gold watch. Her only touch of color was a nod to her role as a patron, a Wimbledon purple and green bow pinned to her chest. Kate was appointed as patron of the All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club in 2016 by Queen Elizabeth. She eventually handed the winner's trophy, the Venus Rosewater Dish, to Swiatek. Earlier this month, during a July 2 visited to Colchester Hospital in Essex, Kate opened up about figuring out her new life balance following cancer treatment. 'You put on a sort of brave face, stoicism through treatment. Treatment's done, then it's like, "I can crack on, get back to normal,"' she shared. 'But actually, the phase afterwards is really, really difficult.' She continued, 'You have to find your new normal and that takes it's a rollercoaster, it's not smooth, like you expect it to be. But the reality is you go through hard times.' The princess announced her ongoing cancer treatment in the spring of 2024. In September of that same year she was done with her cancer treatments. In January 2025, she announced she was in remission. ELLE Collective is a new community of fashion, beauty and culture lovers.

Wimbledon winner Iga Swiatek has trophy taken away from her after banking £3million
Wimbledon winner Iga Swiatek has trophy taken away from her after banking £3million Iga Swiatek was crowned Wimbledon champion on Saturday after a 6-0, 6-0 victory over Amanda Anisimova, but the Pole was soon reminded of one of the tournament's most brutal traditions Sally Bolton will have taken the Venus Rosewater Dish off Iga Swiatek. (Image: BBC ) Polish tennis star Iga Swiatek encountered a bittersweet twist to her Wimbledon Women's singles victory on Saturday. Although she revelled in an astounding 6-0, 6-0 victory over an emotional Amanda Anisimova, wrapping the match up in less than an hour, Swiatek was soon informed she wouldn't keep the coveted Venus Rosewater Dish. Swiatek, 24, learned quickly about one of Wimbledon's more unforgiving customs following her historic win that registered as the most one-sided final in the modern tennis era. Despite pocketing £3million in prize money and speaking with Royalty, Swiatek didn't get to enjoy the trophy for long. The much-coveted dish is only briefly bestowed upon the women's champion before being reclaimed shortly after the celebration, leaving victorious players like Swiatek with merely a diminutive replica. As the BBC coverage of the final unfolded, presenter Clare Balding was discussing Swiatek's triumphant walk towards the balcony alongside analyst Tracy Austin, reports The Express. All England Club CEO Sally Bolton had to take the trophy off Iga Swiatek. (Image: BBC ) Article continues below Balding said: "It looks so lovely that side of the clubhouse and it's just great, you've got your hands on this trophy". Austin added: "She keeps looking at it! It's so beautiful to see her smiling." However, 2013 Wimbledon winner Marion Bartoli was on hand to drop a bombshell. "But she can't keep it," she interjected. Bartoli continued: "You only get a replica of it. This one goes back into the trophy gallery. You will have it at the Champions Ball in your hand again, then it will go back to the trophy gallery. You don't go back home with that trophy, there is only one place and it stays in the trophy gallery at Wimbledon." Following her photo opportunity with the trophy and her team, Swiatek was reportedly approached by All England Club CEO Sally Bolton, who promptly reclaimed it. Bartoli humorously said that the Wimbledon boss will have told Swiatek that she had to give the famous trophy up. French Open champion Coco Gauff was unable to take the Coupe Suzanne Lenglen trophy home with her (Image: Getty Images ) When questioned about the size of the replica trophy winners get to keep, Bartoli replied: "Three-quarters size." She added: "But all the names are engraved, all the names of the past champions who have graced that court before you are engraved with the replica you can take home. But it's only three-quarters size. But it's still beautiful." Article continues below Coco Gauff also learned the hard truth about winning the biggest prizes back in June when she won her first French Open title. The US Star even made a TikTok video where she joked about the smaller size of her replica trophy. Meanwhile, Andy Murray, who was absent from Wimbledon this year, playfully took issue with the replica trophy situation by taking to Instagram. "Surely the tennis majors can do a better job with the replica trophies?! They are tiny," he wrote. He did add a laughing emoji in his response to Gauff's minor complaint however.

Iga Swiatek has to give back Wimbledon trophy after thrashing Amanda Anisimova
Iga Swiatek was forced to give back the Venus Rosewater Dish almost immediately after winning Wimbledon, with the All England Club taking the trophy and giving the Polish star a replica instead Polish tennis star Iga Swiatek experienced a bittersweet moment as she won the Wimbledon Women's singles on Saturday. Despite her stunning 6-0, 6-0 victory, which she chalked up in just under an hour, the 24-year-old soon learned that the Venus Rosewater Dish wouldn't be hers to keep. After dominating an emotional Amanda Anisimova, in what turned out to be the most lopsided final in the Open Era, Swiatek was quickly acquainted with Wimbledon's harsh tradition. The iconic trophy is traditionally taken back soon after the presentation ceremony, leaving champions like Swiatek with a smaller replica. The revelation came to light during the BBC's coverage, where host Clare Balding, and pundit Tracy Austin, were chatting about the champion's walk towards the balcony for Swiatek's celebratory moment. Balding said: "It looks so lovely that side of the clubhouse and it's just great, you've got your hands on this trophy." Austin then chimed in adding: "She keeps looking at it! It's so beautiful to see her smiling." However, 2013 Wimbledon winner Marion Bartoli was on hand to drop a bombshell. "But she can't keep it," she interjected. Bartoli continued: "You only get a replica of it. This one goes back into the trophy gallery. You will have it at the Champions Ball in your hand again, then it will go back to the trophy gallery. You don't go back home with that trophy, there is only one place and it stays in the trophy gallery at Wimbledon." After Swiatek returned indoors to snap some photos with the trophy and her team, she encountered All England Club CEO Sally Bolton, who promptly reclaimed the trophy, reports the Express. Bartoli humorously said that the Wimbledon boss will have told Swiatek that she had to give the famous trophy up. When Balding queried the French legend about the size of the replica trophy winners keep, she responded: "Three-quarters size." She added: "But all the names are engraved, all the names of the past champions who have graced that court before you are engraved with the replica you can take home. But it's only three-quarters size. But it's still beautiful." Coco Gauff also learned this hard truth in June when she clinched her first French Open title. The US Star even created a TikTok video where she joked about the smaller size of her replica trophy. Meanwhile, Andy Murray, who was absent from Wimbledon this year before the Sunday final, playfully took issue with the replica trophy situation by taking to Instagram. "Surely the tennis majors can do a better job with the replica trophies?! They are tiny," he wrote. He did add a laughing emoji in his response to Gauff's complaint however.
