Queen Camilla's exact handheld Wimbledon fan is a £14 Amazon bargain If it's good enough for a queen, it's good enough for our sweaty morning commutes Queen Camilla was feeling hot, hot, hot at Wimbledon – and not because Djokovic was on Centre Court. With London temperatures reaching a scorching 32°C, anyone sitting in the crowd would have been exposed to relentless rays. So what's a royal to do, you wonder?

Queen Camilla's exact handheld Wimbledon fan is a £14 Amazon bargain If it's good enough for a queen, it's good enough for our sweaty morning commutes Queen Camilla was feeling hot, hot, hot at Wimbledon – and not because Djokovic was on Centre Court. With London temperatures reaching a scorching 32°C, anyone sitting in the crowd would have been exposed to relentless rays. So what's a royal to do, you wonder? Short of breaking protocol to keep cool in a strappy dress, you're left with one main option: a good cooling gadget. Partway through the match, the queen consort produced a handheld fan, and it still had the sticker on the back of it. Zoom in and, in good news for us, you'll be able to see it's Tecknet's Hand Held fan, a bargain at the on-sale price of £14.24 in Queen Camilla's white colourway. You can also pick it up in a khaki shade or a pink. Small enough to slip into a handbag for an event like Wimbledon or a summer wedding, the Tecknet fan can be used handheld on the go or stood on its base as a desktop fan at home or in the office. Five speed settings let you switch from a gentle breeze to a stronger blast of cooling air, and the lightweight design makes it easy to carry around.

That means less time hunting for a plug socket and more time staying cool in the stands. Royals famously aren't able to personally endorse brands, aside from granting Royal Warrants to a select few, meaning you won't see them using anything with obvious labels. However, this is the second time that Wimbledon has meant that the rule has accidentally slipped. Back in 2019, Princess Kate famously whipped out a clearly branded Clarins lip gloss from her handbag to apply it mid-match, prompting the product to sell out time and time again. The Clarins Lip Perfector is infused with mango and shea butters for maximum lip hydration, plus rice bran oil, peptides, and a lip highlighter complex. There are 18 shades to choose from, but Rose Shimmer was deduced to be the shade worn by Kate. We wonder what will be produced from a royal's handbag next!
