Sunday's outing was very much a family affair for Princess Kate. She was also joined in the Royal Box by her sister Pippa Matthews who looked radiant in a beautiful floral dress from royally-loved brand, Beulah.

Princess Kate's return to Wimbledon marked her second public engagement since announcing her cancer diagnosis earlier this year. Prior to stepping out in SW19, the royal mother-of-three attended Trooping the Colour last month.

It was her first public outing since Christmas Day, and she opted for a bespoke black and white Jenny Packham dress, which featured a black waistband, black piping around the neck, and an oversized bow detail on the neck.

She travelled in the carriage procession with Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis to watch the ceremony at Horse Guards Parade.

Kate's diagnosis

Kate confirmed in March that she is undergoing preventative chemotherapy following a cancer diagnosis.

And in an update shared last month, the royal mum-of-three said she has "good days and bad days" and that her "treatment is ongoing and will be for a few more months".
