Princess Kate’s inner circle is “refusing to pile pressure” on the royal ahead of a key date, GB News’s Royal Correspondent has claimed.

Cameron Walker explained on this week’s episode of The Royal Record podcast why the Princess of Wales’s appearance at Wimbledon is hanging in the balance this year.

He said: “The Princess of Wales is president of the All England Lawn Tennis Club at Wimbledon, in other words, she presents trophies to the winners.

“She did that last year, she bought her children to watch the tennis, George and Charlotte.

She took over that role from Prince Edward, Duke of Kent. He’s clearly approaching his 90s and he stood down from that role.

“Kensington Palace has not ruled out whether she’ll make an appearance.

“But what is very clear and what they’ve always said, when they announced that she had cancer and she was undergoing preventative chemotherapy, was if she feels well enough and if she feels able to, she will attend an engagement.

“That’s what we saw with Trooping the Colour.

She was there, she looked amazing, and I think the crowds were very excited to see her.

“Whether she will be at Wimbledon, we’ll have to wait and see.

“There’s certainly no pressure for her to attend, and it’s certainly something that Kensington Palace is not going to perhaps give us a huge heads up on, if that is the case.

“But what I’m getting the sense is that those around the princess do not want unnecessary pressure to be put on her.
