Kate Middleton, Princess of Wales, was all smiles Sunday as she attended the men’s singles final at Wimbledon, widely known to be one of the sporty princess’ favourite athletic events.

It marks the second public appearance by Middleton this year as she undergoes treatment for an undisclosed type of cancer and she made the outing a mother-daughter date, bringing along her second-born, Princess Charlotte, for the day.

She spent months away from the public eye after announcing her diagnosis to the world on March 22. It was only last month, to celebrate Trooping the Colour, that she made her first public appearance alongside other members of the Royal Family.

While she often attends Wimbledon with her husband, Prince William, this year’s event saw the heir to the throne absent, as he was in Berlin attending the Union of European Football Association (UEFA) championship game between England and Spain.

Kensington Palace emphasized in June that any appearances made by the Princess do not signal a return to public life and that she would make near-future outings based on how she is feeling and on the guidance from her medical team.

No date has been set for when she will resume her royal duties.
