Duchess Kate made her second public appearance since announcing her battle with cancer. The presence of the 42-year-old at the men's Wimbledon final on Sunday sparked a lot of emotions. Videos of enthusiastic reactions from the gathered fans in the stands have already circulated online.
The first months of 2024 passed in the show-business world mainly under the sign of the mysterious media absence of Duchess Kate. After a few weeks of online speculation, Prince William's beloved announced in March that during a January stay in a London hospital, a "certain form of cancer" was detected. The 42-year-old also revealed that she had undergone preventive chemotherapy and announced that she would put most of her commitments on hold for the time being, focusing primarily on her recovery. Let us remind you that after revealing the sad health news, Kate Middleton made her first public appearance only in mid-June, participating in this year's Trooping the Colour.
