Royals William and Kate visit Wimbledon

A year after the Queen made a rare visit to the All England Club, Prince William and his new wife Kate were among the crowd at Wimbledon yesterday.

The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, who were married on April 29, received a warm ovation from the crowd as they took their seats in the front row of the Royal Box, just in time to see Andy Murray take on Richard Gasquet of France on Centre Court.

Queen Elizabeth II came to Wimbledon last year for her first visit in 33 years.

Security was noticeably tighter at the All England Club, and a police helicopter circled the grounds during the Royals' visit.

In keeping with Wimbledon's all-white dress theme, Kate wore an off-white, knee-length dress with tiered layers and embroidered straps. William wore a blue suit on a warm day in London.
