The Duchess of Cambridge is having to self-isolate for 10 days after coming into contact with someone who later tested positive for Covid. She had been due to spend the day with the Duke of Cambridge to mark the 73rd anniversary of the NHS. But Prince William arrived alone for a service at St Paul's Cathedral and a Buckingham Palace tea for NHS staff. Kensington Palace said she does not have any symptoms, but is "following all relevant government guidelines". It said in a statement: "Last week the Duchess of Cambridge came into contact with someone who has subsequently tested positive for Covid-19. "Her Royal Highness is not experiencing any symptoms, but is following all relevant government guidelines and is self-isolating at home." Catherine's last public event was a visit to Wimbledon on Friday when she toured the venue and met staff in its museum and Centre Court kitchen. She also sat with the Duke of Kent in the royal box on Centre Court and with former British number one tennis player Tim Henman on Court 14 to watch Jamie Murray play in a men's doubles match. The duchess is patron of the All England Lawn Tennis Club and a keen tennis fan, but is now likely to miss the men's and women's finals at the weekend.

Prince William joined his wife Kate Middleton, who is a keen tennis fan and patron of the All England Lawn Tennis Club, to see Australia's Ashleigh Barty beat Czech Republic's Karolína Plíšková, clinching her second Grand Slam title. While the royal couple thoroughly enjoyed the nail-biting game, after it finished they were left scrambling to delete a tweet they had sent - because of a small typo! This afternoon the royal couple posted: "Well done to @wimbledon and the staff on continuing to make the Championships such a special event." But eagle-eyed followers would have noticed that an almost identical tweet was fired off before this and quickly deleted because they had crucially misspelt Wimbledon as 'Wimbldedon'. The small blunder came after the couple sent their congratulations to champion Ashleigh on her "incredible" final. "What an incredible match and performance by both athletes! Congratulations @ashbarty on being crowned #Wimbledon champion," they tweeted.

Prince William reportedly has been shouldering the burden of everything pertaining to the royal lifestyle ever since Prince Harry moved away from the UK.
The claim has been brought forward by the author of the book, Traitor King: The Scandalous Exile of the Duke and Duchess of Windsor.
While drawing parallels he told Express, “There is always this tension between the dutiful royals and the rogue royals.”0
“Bertie [George VI] stepped up to the mark for the Duke of Windsor when he was younger, and William is having to shoulder everything for Harry.”
“They’re two very different characters even though they’ve had the same upbringing. So that’s why you can’t really blame the upbringing.”
King Edward VIII, the Duke of Windsor, became Britain’s shortest-serving monarch with a reign of just 326 days after he abdicated the throne in 1936.”
