DAVID Beckham has inadvertently revealed a secret perk exclusively for tennis fans sitting in the royal box at Wimbledon.

Kate Middleton and Meghan Markle put on a united front at the ladies final this afternoon, backing Serena Williams as she was sensationally taken down by Simona Halep.

Halep thrashed her rival 6-2 6-2, smashing her hopes of a 24th Grand Slam victory.

Kate and Meghan, both 37, have become familiar fixtures in the royal box, along with other members of the Royal Family.

Former England legend David Beckham was among those lucky enough to receive an invite to the tournament.
