Happy couple: The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge sat in the Royal Box on Centre court at Wimbledon


Tennis fans are sweltering in the 24c heat at Wimbledon today, but The Duchess of Cambridge looked as fresh as a daisy in a pretty white dress in the Royal Box on Centre Court.

Kate and William were at the tournament to cheer on British hopeful Andy Murray who won the Aegon

She has been a tennis fan for years - as have all the Middletons.

Pippa has attended the French Open and the Aegon Championships since her big sister's wedding earlier this year, and a polite thank you letter Kate wrote to Wimbledon a few years ago is currently on display at the All England Club.


Pretty layering: Kate followed Wimbledon's specification that player's must wear white


Murray is being touted as Britain's strongest chance of a Wimbledon men's winner since Fred Perry in 1936.

But all eyes were on the Duchess on Centre Court today.

She was wearing a pretty, pleated white dress that gave a big nod to the skirts being worn by the women on the grass courts.

The white disks on the shoulders will also remind Wimbledon-goers of a less successful recent fashion statement... the Lady Gaga-esque jacket Bethanie Mattek-Sands wore on Thursday, shortly before losing her first match.
