Mystery Solved as Video Reveals Who Kate Middleton Was Blowing Kisses to at Wimbledon (Not Prince William or Her Kids)
The Princess of Wales (formerly known as Kate Middleton) surprised royal watchers everywhere when she attended the Trooping the Colour to mark King Charles‘ official birthday on June 15. The princess’s appearance came as she’s still undergoing preventive chemotherapy.
When announcing her attendance via social media, the princess explained that she has “good days” and “bad days” writing: “I am making good progress, but as anyone going through chemotherapy will know, there are good days and bad days. On those bad days you feel weak, tired and you have to give in to your body resting. But on the good days, when you feel stronger, you want to make the most of feeling well.”
Kate added that she knows she’s “not out of the woods yet,” but she hopes to attend some more public engagements over the summer. Well, less than a month later, the Palace announced that the next summertime event fans would get to see her at would be Wimbledon.
Ahead of Kate’s appearance, a video began circulating from a couple of years back. It shows the Princess of Wales blowing kisses just before taking her seat in the Royal Box. But who was she blowing them to?
Who Kate was blowing kisses to when she sat down
Kate, who is an avid tennis fan and patron of the All England Lawn Tennis Club, has been a fixture at Wimbledon just about every year since joining the royal family and now fans are sharing videos of her past looks and memorable moments at the event.
In one video posted on TikTok, the princess is seen blowing kisses as she takes her seat leaving the question: Who was she blowing them to William, one of her children, the king, another royal? According to the video, Kate was actually looking for her parents, Carole and Mike Middleton, and once she spotted her mother and father she blew a kiss to them.
The 9-second clip has garnered hundreds of likes and views.
Kate’s mom has been by the princess’s side since her cancer diagnosis
Kate is known to be very close with her parents. It’s believed that her mom, Carole, who lives in Berkshire which is only around 40 minutes away from the Waleses’ Adelaide Cottage, has been by her daughter’s side and supporting her as she continues her treatment and recovery.
Royal expert Jennie Bond spoke about how much it means for Kate’s mother to be there for her daughter during such a difficult time.
“It’s what every mother does — wrap her poorly little girl up in cotton wool, even when she’s a fully grown woman,” Bond told OK!. “It doesn’t matter who you are when your health breaks down, there is no one quite like your mum to help you feel better.”
