Among the commendations for her win, Raducanu was congratulated by members of the British Royal Family: Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge did so in person and through social media, and Queen Elizabeth II sent a letter, which Raducanu said "meant everything to her".

The history of ice cream is full of myths and stories with little evidence to support them. A typical "history" begins with Roman Emperor Nero (AD 37-68) who ate fruit chilled with snow. Elsewhere, Mongolian horsemen are reputed to have invented ice cream. The expansion of the Mongol Empire spread this idea through China, from where Marco Polo reputedly brought the idea to Italy when he returned from his travels in 1296. However, historical research has found little evidence to support any of these stories. China may have developed a forerunner of ice cream, but food historians usually credit Europe with its invention. Italy, France, and England were all early pioneers. During the Tang dynasty, which coincided with the early Middle Ages in Europe, the Chinese ate a frozen milk treat, a possible forerunner of ice cream.

According to Mageulonne Toussaint-Samat in her History of Food, the Chinese may be credited with developing a device to make sorbets and ice cream. They poured a mixture of snow and saltpetre over the exteriors of containers filled with syrup, to lower the freezing-point to below zero.

Britannica says: Iced desserts were introduced into Europe from the East. Marco Polo brought back descriptions of fruit ices from his travels in China.
