Kate Middleton and Meghan Markle, the Duchess of Cambridge and the Duchess of Sussex, made their first official royal appearance alone together without their husbands when they attended the Wimbledon Ladies’ Singles Final on Saturday. Though they were watching Serena Williams take on Angelique Kerber in the tennis match, it was Kate and Meghan who stole the show!
Royal fans were ecstatic when Kensington Palace announced that Kate and Meghan would be attending the tennis match two days before the event.

Kate and Meghan had previously only made royal appearances as the royal Fab Four with their husbands, Prince William and Prince Harry. Despite this, the two princesses seemed totally comfortable when they arrived at Wimbledon before the match for a meet-and-greet with young players.
An occasion fit for royalty.

Kate and Meghan looked very glamorous in the outfits they wore to the match. Kate arrived wearing a white dress with a unique pattern, while Meghan wore a half-sleeved, blue-and-white striped shirt designed by Ralph Lauren. She paired this with cream bottoms, a casual messy bun, and a black handbag coordinated nicely with the bold top.
