The best royal box moments from Wimbledon
The royal box at Wimbledon is much better than a box of chocolates... And you never know who you'll get!
In a moment that left us fashion-fantatics giddy with glee, Kate Middleton's 2019 Wimbledon appearance on day two featured a rather apt nod to the talented players on the court. Always one to follow the royal rule book, Kate's white shirt dress was well aligned with the infamous on-court dress code.

(Getty)Even before she became a Duchess, Meghan Markle, pictured in July 2016 just months before the world found out about her romance with Prince Harry, was a huge tennis fan. This year, she'll have the privilege of getting to sit in the royal box!
Kate, pictured in 2012, may think Wimbledon is a quintessential part of the English summer... But the Duchess is a quintessential part of the tennis competition!
Last year she showcased her brand new short 'do... And we think it's an absolute grand slam.
The Duke and Duchess sure know how to give good face. Here they are looking perplexed in 2014.
The look you get when you know you're the king and queen of court-side fashion.
While many may focus on the on match... The future Queen gives us giggles in spades with her hilarious expressions.
We're going to guess that poker isn't your strong suit.
Giggles between these love birds.
Princess Diana was a vision back in 1993 where she saw Pete Sampras take out the title.
Seems like laughter to being bemused is a royal box requirement.

We much prefer her with Prince William.
The royal mum shows us how to give a royal wave.
And Wills seems to have mastered it... Despite Kate's confusion.
"Growing up I, sort of, watched, obviously watched Wimbledon, it's been very much part of my family growing up," Kate, pictured in 2007, told the BBC
Kate Middleton (L: 2008) to Catherine, The Duchess of Cambridge (R: 2011).
"It hasn't changed either, I think that's what's so wonderful. You know everyone's still there in their whites, Wimbledon still looks as amazing as it did as I remember it as a youngster."
Of course Her Majesty has reigned the grass-adorned courts.
[L] In 1957 the Queen awarded the Wimbledon trophy to Alethea Gibson - the very first African American to take out the singles comp. [R] 20 years later, in 1977 she presented British tennis player Virginia Wade with her shield.
Her Majesty doesn't seem that fussed over Andy Murray...
Roger Federer on the other hand...
And Prince Charles seems to feel the same as his mama.

Who can forget our favourite Countess, Sophie of Wessex!
Ahhh Wimbledon... You fill our hearts with joy, here's to another great year!
