Pippa Middleton is a carbon copy of sister Kate at Wimbledon

Pippa Middleton, the younger sister of the Princess of Wales, was her royal sibling’s carbon copy on Monday when she made her debut at the 2026 Wimbledon Championships.

Stepping out alongside her mother, Carole Middleton, 71, Pippa, 42, had us doing a double take when she made her way into the All England Lawn Tennis & Croquet Club, as her walk was so similar to that of her future Queen sister. See Pippa’s walk in the video above.

For the glamorous occasion in SW19, Pippa wore the elegant “Naira” dress from Reformation, which she paired suitably with white stilettos, a J. Crew raffia clutch bag, and a boater hat to battle the scorching 30-degree temperatures. 

The dress in question was white, adorned with red flowers and featured a plunging V-neckline and puffed sleeves. 

Meanwhile, Carole was the picture of poise in her tennis-chic, calling on one of her staple brands, ME+EM, wearing a white linen dress by the label, which she paired with a blue blazer.

As for accessories, Carole was clad in Longchamp, carrying the ‘Le Roseau S bag’ and sunglasses to match.

Pippa’s tennis dreams

While it’s no secret that Kate is a huge fan of the sport, Pippa previously gushed about her own childhood dreams of taking home the Wimbledon trophy while writing for Vanity Fair back in 2013.

“I first went to Wimbledon when I was eight years old and already a very keen tennis player,” Pippa wrote.

“During this first trip, I acted on my childish tennis dreams and bought myself a postcard of the women’s championship trophy, on which I wrote, ‘I will win this one day,’ with my signature below.”

Pippa went on to recall joining the famous Wimbledon queue at 5 am with Kate. She cited one of her favourite memories: “Queuing from 5 am on People’s Sunday in 2004 with my sister for three hours and getting £35 tickets on Centre Court  – my first time ever.” 

“Seats were a free-for-all, and I recall almost tripping over myself trying to get as close as possible to my birthday twin – British hero Tim Henman. The atmosphere was electric –  more of a carnival than a glorified garden party, which it so often is – and for once crowds were thankful for the British rain,” she explained.
