Prince William, Kate and kids watch the men’s singles final from the Royal Box at Wimbledon

Prince William and Kate Middleton have stunned crowds at the hotly-anticipated final at Wimbledon, joined by their kids in a rare family outing.

Prince William, Princess Kate and two of their kids delighted onlookers by appearing in the Royal Box at Wimbledon with two of their three children for the men’s singles final on Sunday.

The beaming family waved to fans as they landed in SW19 for the showdown match between Italian Jannik Sinner, 23, and Spaniard Carlos Alcaraz, 22.

Tipped to be an all-time classic final, Kate and Wills, both 43, watched on from the Royal Box as the top two players in the world battled it out in front of a packed Centre Court crowd of 15,000, The Sun reports.

They were joined by two of their three children, George, 11, and Charlotte, 10 – for the game.

The family stepped into the Royal Box shortly before the start of the hotly-anticipated match, greeting and smiling to other attendees.

Thousands of fans rose to their feet to applaud the royals as they took their seats at the front of the Royal Box.

Both players were solid on serve until the fifth game, when Alcaraz sprayed a forehand long to hand Sinner the first break of the match.

But the Spaniard levelled at 4-4 to the delight of the Centre Court crowd, which included Prince William and his wife Catherine, Princess of Wales.

Sinner double-faulted to hand Alcaraz a second set point.

The Italian laced a searing forehand down the line but Alcaraz produced a magical backhand winner, pointing his finger to his ear as the crowd rose to their feet.

Sinner shook his racquet after winning the first point as he served for the set and was rewarded with cheers before levelling the match with a whipped forehand.

The third set was a tense affair that went with serve until the ninth game when Sinner broke as Alcaraz slipped over on the baseline and he went 2-1 up.

The momentum was now all with Sinner and he broke again in the third game of the fourth set to take the match by the scruff of the neck.

The chance was always there that Alcaraz would produce the magic he found at Roland Garros but Sinner stayed ice-cool.

The Spaniard had two break points to hit back in the eighth game but Sinner shut the door impressively.

Sinner stepped up to serve for the championship amid a cacophony of noise, staying focused to seal the deal on his second championship point.

The Italian cruised through the first three rounds at Wimbledon, losing just 17 games -- equalling an Open era record set in 1972.

But he got lucky in the fourth round against inspired Bulgarian 19th seed Dimitrov, who was leading by two sets when he suffered an injury that forced him to quit.

Sinner got back into the groove against 10th seed Ben Shelton in the quarter-finals before demolishing seven-time champion Djokovic in the last four.

Alcaraz had been aiming to become just the fifth man in the Open era to win three consecutive Wimbledons after Bjorn Borg, Pete Sampras, Federer and Djokovic.
