Duchess of Kent
Katharine Worsley, the Duchess of Kent, was a prominent member of the British royal family, known for her marriage to Prince Edward, the Duke of Kent, in 1961. She gained public recognition for her long-standing association with the Wimbledon tennis tournament, where she presented trophies starting in 1969. Notably, she converted to Roman Catholicism in 1994, becoming the first British royal to do so since King Charles II. Her passing on September 4, 2023, at the age of 92, led to King Charles III attending her funeral, marking a significant departure from royal tradition as he became the first monarch in centuries to attend a Roman Catholic service.
