This
NEVER happens with other Royals or Celebrities. The security around the whole club during the tournament is extremely high level.
Buckingham Palace had also sent out an operational note earlier that morning, confirming the Duchess’s attendance.
No such demands are believed to have been made when the Duchess of Cambridge visited Wimbledon earlier in the week, taking a seat in the stands

...But while the television cameras inevitably zoomed in on the royal visitor and a sea of mobile phones were held aloft, those closest to her were ordered not to take photographs because she was there “in a private capacity.”
Sally Jones, 64, a media consultant who was seated in the same row, had been taking pictures of Williams and had not even noticed the Duchess when she received a tap on the shoulder. She turned around to see a royal protection officer who said: “Would you not take photographs of the Duchess. She’s here in a private capacity.”
...Ms Jones was astonished, not least because she had not even seen the Duchess...
She described the move as “another example of silly control freakery,” a criticism that has plagued the Duke and Duchess of Sussex in recent months.
“I think this royal protection officer was quite embarrassed,” she added. “He appeared a bit mystified as to why he was being asked to make such a request.
“Apart from anything else, there were hundreds of people clicking away. I said to him; have you thought about having a word with any of those television cameras? He looked a little uncomfortable.”
