I recall her being very supportive to Jana Novotna in an early 90's Wimbledon final, I recall it was a rarity at the time to see a trained royal act with such compassion and humanity.

Duchess of Kent was an elegant lady. More outwardly sociable than the Queen.
I'm not a royalist but I did like the Duchess of Kent.
A very elegant and compassionate lady.

Which is genuinely sad when you think about it.
Made me think of Baltacha this, and what a sorry deal she ended up with at just 30.
