Prince George Joins Prince William and Catherine at Wimbledon Men’s Singles Finals
Prince George, the eldest son of Prince William and Catherine, joined his parents for the Men's Singles Finals at Wimbledon 2022, marking his first-ever visit to the prestigious tennis tournament.
The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge were in the Royal Box on Centre Court to watch Novak Djokovic play against Nick Kregius, the colourful Australian who won the first set.
Prince George looked smart in his suit and was well-behaved throughout the match, while his siblings Charlotte and Louis were not present.
Catherine, who is the patron of the All England Club, couldn't hide her pride as she watched her son enjoy his treat day at Wimbledon.
According to the Mirror, when asked about George's first time at the tournament, Catherine asked him, “Is this your first time?
It is, isn't it?”

George shyly replied, “Yes.”
When asked why Charlotte wasn't there, Catherine explained, “It's George's treat day today.”
Prince William also interacted with his son and asked him who he was going to support.
George appeared too shy to answer, so William whispered, “Djokovic,” before adding, “We'll see how long it lasts.
He'll support the winner.”
William also spoke to George about Kregius' powerful serve and Djokovic's experience in playing Grand Slam finals, predicting an electrifying spectacle.
Catherine looked stunning in a polka dot navy dress from Alessandra Rich, while William wore a grey blazer, blue chinos, and a crisp white shirt.
Fans believe that Prince George has had private tennis lessons with one of the world's best players, Roger Federer.
In 2019, Federer gave George some top tips as he visited the Cambridges at their Norfolk estate, where they have a court.
The Royals enjoyed the sunshine as they waited to watch Djokovic chase his 14th Grand Slam title against Kregius, who got a bye through to the final after his semi-final opponent Rafa Nadal had to pull out of the competition due to an abdominal muscle tear.
Catherine, who is also the patron of the Lawn Tennis Association, had attended Cameron Norrie's quarter-final match that saw him through to the semis against Djokovic.
She also attended the women's final on Saturday to see Kazakhstanian Ilyna Rebikina win against Anzh Jaber.
Prince George put on an animated display at the Wimbledon Men's Singles Finals, sitting in the Royal Box's front row between his parents and completely engrossed in the performance put out by the two aces.
He was seen hiding his face, laughing, and wincing as he watched the action unfold on the pitch.
Catherine's family is currently experiencing a happy period, as earlier today, a source confirmed that George's aunt Pippa Middleton is heavily pregnant with her third child.
Pippa, who already has two children with her husband James Matthews, Arthur, 3, and Grace, 1, appeared to sport a bump at the Queen's Platinum Jubilee celebrations in June, leading to widespread rumours.
Now a source has confirmed that Pippa and James are thrilled by the news of the new arrival.
“Pippa and her family are thrilled,” a friend told the Daily Mail.
“It's a very exciting time in their lives.”
In conclusion, Prince George's first visit to Wimbledon was a memorable one, as he joined his parents in the Royal Box to watch Djokovic and Kregius battle it out for the Men's Singles title.
Catherine and William were proud of their son's behaviour, and the family enjoyed the electrifying spectacle on Centre Court.
Meanwhile, Pippa Middleton's pregnancy news added to the happy period for the family.
