As Newsweek reports, viewers at home were deeply moved by the crowd’s reaction to Kate.

And of course, the celebs on hand received the most attention.

Tom, in particular, became a subject of fascination on social media, as TikTok users were loving his energy.

“Standing ovation for Kate Middleton at the Wimbledon final. Two rows [back] you can see the enthusiasm by Tom Cruise and Julia Roberts,” wrote the user who posted the clip above.

Canadian TV personality Sangita Patel commented:

“Wow! This moment of seeing #katemiddleton and the standing ovation I spy Benedict Cumberbatch, Tom Cruise and Julia Roberts #wimbledon #finals”

Tom has long been a fan of the royals. And he last made Prince William’s acquaintance in February at a gala dinner at a London Air Ambulance Charity Gala Dinner.

“I should also take this opportunity to give a mention to my — our — fellow pilot, Tom Cruise,” William joked at the time.

“Tom, huge thanks for supporting us tonight. And Tom, if you wouldn’t mind not borrowing either of the new helicopters for the next Mission Impossible, it would be appreciated,” he continued.

“We have all seen on our screens that—how can I put it—you seem to have a different take on ‘normal wear and tear’ to the rest of us. It’s not the kind that buffs out.”

Yes, Tom goes way back with the royals. And we’re sure he’s absolutely delighted to see Kate up and about again!
