The Princess of Wales will be present at the Wimbledon men’s final.

 Kensington Palace has confirmed that the Princess of Wales will attend the Wimbledon men's final on Sunday. This marks her second public appearance since her cancer diagnosis and abdominal surgery earlier this year. Last month, she was warmly received at Trooping the Color, where she was seen smiling and waving from the Buckingham Palace balcony. On Sunday, the princess will present the trophy to the winner of this year's men's singles tournament.

She has served as a patron of the All-England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club for the past eight years.

This year's men's final features last year's champion Carlos Alcaraz facing off against seven-time Wimbledon winner Novak Djokovic.

In June, the princess provided an update on her health, noting she was making "good progress" but remained cautious as she navigated her cancer diagnosis. This update marked the most significant news since she disclosed her condition in March. She shared, "As anyone undergoing chemotherapy understands, there are good days and bad days," emphasizing that her treatment continues and will persist for several more months.

"I am embracing patience, especially amidst uncertainty. Each day, I listen to my body and allow myself the necessary time to heal."

During the tennis final, the Prince of Wales will be in Berlin for the Euro 2024 final clash between England and Spain.

The trophy for Saturday's women's final will be presented by Wimbledon All-England Club chairwoman Debbie Jevans to either Jasmine Paolini or Barbora Krejcikova.

Swiftly responding US Secret Service agents surrounded him and swiftly moved him away from the stage to safety. Trump acknowledged supporters with a raised fist as he was escorted into a waiting vehicle. In a post on his Truth Social network, Trump disclosed that a bullet had struck the "upper part" of his right ear. Earlier, his spokesperson had mentioned he was undergoing treatment at a nearby medical center. "I instantly sensed something was amiss when I heard a whizzing sound, gunfire, and immediately felt the bullet piercing my skin," Trump wrote. "There was significant bleeding, and I quickly understood the gravity of the situation." Blood was visibly eviden...

The Hollywood actor and influential Democratic Party supporter  remarked that while the president has triumphed in numerous battles throughout his career, "the battle against time is one he cannot win."

Clooney wrote in The New York Times that it was "heartbreaking to admit," but the Mr. Biden he encountered at a recent fundraising event three weeks ago was ...

At first glance, this past week's NATO summit in Washington appears to have met its objectives. The alliance has demonstrated its increased size and strength, reaffirmed its unwavering military support for Ukraine, and issued a firm warning to China regarding its covert backing of Russia's actions in Kyiv. Sir Keir Starmer's new government has seized the opportunity to establish itself as a pivotal player in the transatlantic alliance, especially amidst political uncertainties surrounding the White House and many European nations. Back in Britain, the immediate priorities for this new administration are pressing: addressing issues such as the economy, housing, immigration, and the NHS, among others. However, unforeseen threats and scenarios have a tendency to appear unexpectedly, disrupting even the most carefully laid plans. What challenges could arise during the tenure of this new UK government?
