The Princess of Wales, Wimbledon patron, chose a royal blue Roksanda dress for today’s Men’s Singles Final. 
The match will see Spain’s Carlos Alcaraz take on Jannik Sinner of Italy. Below, the Princess, Prince William, Princess Charlotte, and Prince George as the family arrived at Wimbledon.

You get a sense of the size of that crowd in this image. 
The Wales family spent time with Spain’s King Felipe before the match. The King was at Wimbledon in support of Carlos Alcaraz. 
The Wales children met Wimbledon ambassador Steve Backshall, MBE, a naturalist and explorer.
The family spoke with Ambrose Caldecott, age 11. The young cancer patient was chosen to do the coin toss for the men’s final. (The young man is on the very far right in this photo.)
More from this Telegraph piece.
Ambrose, who was diagnosed with stage-two bone cancer in March 2024, told the Princess about his diagnosis, which she described as “tough”, before appearing to add: “You’re so brave.”
When she asked how he was responding to treatment, Ambrose, who stood with the help of crutches, replied that he was “a lot better, on the mend, just waiting on the last few end things”.
As she said goodbye, the Princess said: “Good luck today, I’ll be cheering you on.”
Then everyone headed to their seats.

Although the Royal Box at Centre Court is typically off-limits to kids given the high demand for a spot and limited 74 seats, exceptions are made for royal children.
Others attending the match today include Lord and Lady Fredrick Windsor.

People weren’t just watching at Wimbledon; in King’s Cross, crowds gathered to view the tennis on a big screen. 
Here is the scene at The Hill in Brooklyn, on the banks of the East River at Brooklyn Bridge Park. 
Quite a crowd showed up for today’s showdown.
The temperature as the match started was in the low 80s.

There were fans for the spectators.

The Princess (and others) react to a shot. 
Princess Charlotte appeared to enjoy today’s play. 
It was a fierce match between the world #1, Jannik Sinner, and the world #2 player, Carlos Alcaraz. Mr. Sinner came out as the winner. More from The Athletic’s coverage.
The No. 1 seed prevailed over the No. 2 seed in a tight match ultimately decided by two stunning set points, Alcaraz’s grass tools malfunctioning and Sinner’s steadiness behind and against second serves.
It is his first Wimbledon title, and his fourth Grand Slam title. The win also snaps Sinner’s streak of five successive defeats against Alcaraz, taking their head-to-head in ATP matches to 8-5 in the Spaniard’s favor.

Another image. 
Now, for our look at what Kate wore. When first seeing the dress, several of us immediately thought it looked like a Roksanda design. 
If you look at the multiple fabric panels and seams on the Roksanda Miral dress, you can see the similarities. Sleeves and the fabric swag at the shoulder were added to the Princess’s dress, the V-neck was made a little deeper, and the asymmetrical hem was evened out. The fabric itself is different; the dress worn today looks like a crepe material, not the silk/satins seen in the examples below. 
The dress is actually two colors; the insert on the Princess’s right side is almost a deep teal or aquamarine, depending on the light. 
The Princess brought back her Ralph Lauren Celia Calfskin Pumps ($750) in the RL Gold colorway. 
And she carried the Anya Hindmarch Neeson Small Square Tote ($1490) first noted yesterday. It is shown here at yesterday’s match. 
The Princess also repeated her LK Bennett Saffron Straw Sun Hat (£69, out of stock). 
The Princess debuted a Daniella Draper necklace we’d not seen previously, the 8 Diamond Luxury Forever Trace Chain Necklace ($4700) in recycled solid 9ct yellow gold with eight diamonds. Thank you to Natasha for her speedy ID and for Ellie’s confirmation from the brand. We saw the return of the Cartier Trinity Earrings ($3350) and the Wimbledon pin in the Club’s purple and green colors. 
I don’t know who made the dress worn by Princess Charlotte, but it looks like she is wearing her Papouelli Siena shoes (£87). Ellie reports her sunglasses are by Ray-Ban. They look like the Ray-Ban Kids Polished Havana.
Here is a video posted by Kensington Palace.
What a final! An amazing performance from both players. Well done @janniksin on your first @Wimbledon Championship! 🎾🏆 pic.twitter.com/18uQGdpVf5
