The princess, formerly an interior designer turned author of several books on European royalty, has faced her own health challenges recently.

She underwent heart surgery last year and recently told Majesty Magazine about breaking bones in both wrists after falling down stairs at Kensington Palace.

At Wimbledon, she was accompanied by renowned Swiss decorator Christophe Gollut, a leading figure in London's interior design scene.
