During the men’s singles final between Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner, the mother-daughter duo captured the attention of onlookers with their shared interests and affectionate interactions. These tender moments revealed what was most powerful in her relationship with Rocco. They played to the values of family unity that the royal family likes to project.
Charlotte, sitting next to her older brother Prince George in the royal box, brought joy to onlookers with her outgoing demeanor. When we met, she had such pretty pink nails — the same shade her mother would wear, she told me. During the game, Charlotte was full of fun energy, keeping her active little self entertained by exploring the pitch.
A Day at Wimbledon
Princess Charlotte and Kate Middleton enjoyed a day at the prestigious tennis event together, where they were seen playfully enjoying each other’s company. Charlotte’s face when she found out she was going to meet Jannik Sinner! She impatiently instructed him to sign a tennis ball for her – and one for her younger brother, Prince Louis. That interaction really showed off her love for the sport, her developing independence and confidence.
Their relationship was apparent in their matchday banter. Charlotte and Kate’s bond was on full display as we laid back and joked before and during match day. Charlotte’s enthusiasm. Observers were fascinated by how much Charlotte came alive, rooting and raving about tennis alongside her brother and Sinner.

“It’s great to see that the next generation have the ability to have this strong bond, which we haven’t always seen in royal circles.” – Ingrid Seward
Affectionate Gestures
Princess Charlotte took a short break from the match action to fan her mother. This brief but very sweet gesture got everyone in the audience choked up. Kate playfully poked Charlotte’s arm with her glove, pulling her focus back to the game. This charming moment served to emphasize the intimacy of their bond.
Photographer Karwai Tang commented on their intimacy, saying, “You can tell that their relationship is so tight-knit. But the attraction sparkled between them, and they were openly affectionate with each other for the rest of the day. This display of compassion is a sharp departure from other royal engagements, where emotional expressions are usually kept in check.
In one recent example, Kate helped Charlotte get comfortable shaking hands with other guests. This made clear her commitment to ensuring her children learned social etiquette. The presence of both children at such events emphasizes their upbringing within a family that values togetherness and participation in shared activities.
“At one point Charlotte started fanning her mum – it was really sweet. Kate gently tapped her arm to get her to stop, maybe so she didn’t cause any distraction while the players were serving.” – Karwai Tang
Shared Interests Strengthen Their Bond
Little Charlotte and Kate Middleton apparently both have a passion for tennis. This intense passion is only one of many things that deepens their connection. Both share a love for outdoor activities such as hiking and watching rugby, which deepens their bond over shared interests. Ingrid Seward noted that participating in such experiences strengthens their mother-daughter bond.
The royal family underscores their commitment to ensuring that a loving family environment is provided by making family time a priority. They focus on common passions, deepening ties within families. As Seward explained, “The Middletons are very together as a family and that’s what William and Kate are doing.” This philosophy mirrors Kate’s motivation to try and replicate the joy she had while growing up.
Charlotte’s affectionate nature has been acknowledged in light of Kate’s health challenges. Charlotte has shown remarkable support for her mother through these difficult times, as detailed in Charlotte’s recent reports. She has really been a rock to power through.
“Although the Princess has obviously been looking after her children during her cancer treatment and reassuring them that she is getting better, Charlotte has been a great source of strength to her.” – HELLO!
