Princess Kate was left feeling embarrassed when her father, Michael Middleton, made a humorous mistake at Wimbledon, despite their family’s frequent attendance at the prestigious event. Known for their avid interest in tennis, Kate’s parents, Carol and Michael Middleton, are often seen at Wimbledon. This year, they were spotted alongside Kate, her siblings Pippa and James, watching a match from the Royal Box.

However, a memorable incident occurred back in 2017 when Kate revealed that Michael had confused two well-known British tennis figures with just two words. In the BBC documentary “Our Wimbledon,” Kate shared the moment candidly, saying, “My father won’t appreciate this, but as we passed Tim Henman after watching Pete Sampras play, my dad casually said, ‘Hi Pete.'” She admitted feeling embarrassed because Pete Sampras is an American tennis legend who won seven Wimbledon titles, while Tim Henman, a British former professional, never clinched the tournament since 2016.

Despite occasional moments like these, Kate Middleton has maintained a strong connection to Wimbledon, serving as the Patron of the All-England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club since 2016. She traditionally attends the finals to present trophies to the winners, although her attendance this year remains uncertain due to ongoing medical treatment, with arrangements being kept flexible.

Continuing the Wimbledon tradition, Kate took Prince George and Princess Charlotte to the championship match in 2023, while Prince Louis had to stay at home. This commitment underscores her dedication to both her family and her royal responsibilities.
