Kate Middleton glows in yellow as she arrives at Wimbledon for the Ladies’ Singles Final

KATE Middleton stunned in bright yellow as she arrived at Wimbledon for the Ladies’ Singles Final this afternoon.

The duchess, who is wearing a Roksanda dress, was pictured alone today – after attending with William to watch British number one Cameron Norrie score a quarter-final victory earlier this week.

Earlier this week, she and husband William put on an animated display as they watched a match

The couple hailed the “brilliant” win after a five-set thriller against Belgium’s David Goffin. 

In a tweet after the match, they shared a photo of Norrie, 26, pumping his fist on the court with the caption: “What a match! Just brilliant @cam-norrie.”

They sat in front of David Walliams, and Kate was spotted blowing a kiss to parents Carole and Mike.

The Cambridges also watched Novak Djokovic take on Jannik Sinner on Centre Court.

During the most nail-biting moments of the game, avid tennis fan Kate could barely watch as she was seen covering her eyes and clasping her hands in front of her mouth.

Prince William was also spotted putting on a very animated display and clenching his teeth during a tense serve, before bursting into laughter.

But Kate, who is patron of the Lawn Tennis Association, missed the second Wimbledon semi-final yesterday for a very sweet reason.

The tennis fan skipped the game to join Prince George and Princess Charlotte for their final day at school before the summer break.

Both royal kids have attended St Thomas’s Battersea Junior School since they were four.

However, the Cambridges are set to move from London to Windsor this summer.

It means the youngsters may be attending new schools in September.

Kate also missed a major clash featuring a British player back in 2013, when Andy Murray made it to the final.

She’d been keen to cheer him on from the Royal Box – but was advised to watch from home as she was heavily pregnant.

She told sports host Sue Barker on the BBC documentary Our Wimbledon: “I was very heavily pregnant with George so I wasn’t able to turn up.”

Sue replied: “But you had a great excuse!”

The mum-of-three is clearly making up for it today as she watches Ons Jabeur face off against Elena Rybakina.

Kate is also a keen player herself.

Earlier this year, she was spotted playing a game with her children at the exclusive Hurlingham Club, in Fulham, south west London, where annual membership costs from £1,600-a-year. 

She’s a regular at the private members’ club and has been taking tennis lessons for a number of years – often beating husband William on the court.

Sources say she’s becoming a “good minor athlete” with a “nice top spin”.

The family even has a court at their country home, Anmer Hall in Norfolk.

Prince George’s tennis skills have been commended by Swiss legend Roger Federer.
