Hollywood Takes Over Wimbledon
Wimbledon's Centre Court became a star-studded spectacle on Sunday, as Hollywood A-listers flocked to witness the men's singles final between defending champion Carlos Alcaraz and tennis legend Novak Djokovic.
Oscar-winning actress Julia Roberts, looking effortlessly chic in a white Gucci minidress and sunglasses, graced the Royal Box alongside her husband, cinematographer Daniel Moder. The couple joined a bevy of stars, including the ever-stylish Zendaya, who turned heads in a smart white trouser suit paired with a pinstripe shirt and loosely knotted navy tie.
Tom Cruise, taking a break from filming the latest installment of "Mission: Impossible," sported a maroon blazer and Aviator sunglasses as he chatted with a friend in the Royal Box. "Friends" star Courteney Cox and her fiancé, Snow Patrol rocker Johnny McDaid, added to the celebrity presence, arriving hand-in-hand and looking effortlessly chic.
Benedict Cumberbatch and his wife Sophie Hunter, dressed in a classic blue suit and eye-catching yellow dress respectively, were also spotted amongst the crowd. Meanwhile, Tom Hiddleston and Zawe Ashton made a rare public appearance, both dressed in Ralph Lauren for the occasion.
Irish actor Pierce Brosnan, looking dapper in a navy suit and shades, completed the star-studded lineup, which also included Andrew Garfield, Vernon Kay with his daughter Phoebe, and Lord Frederick Windsor and his wife Sophie Winkleman.
The Royal Box, however, wasn't just a Hollywood showcase. The Princess of Wales, joined by her daughter Princess Charlotte, made her second public appearance of the year, marking her return after undergoing cancer treatment. Kate, a passionate tennis fan and patron of the All England Lawn Tennis Club, received a standing ovation as she took her seat alongside Prince William's second cousin, Lord Frederick Windsor, and his wife.
Adding to the royal presence were London Mayor Sadiq Khan, tennis legend Andre Agassi, and, of course, Tom Cruise, a close friend of the royal family.
While the men's final captivated the crowd, the women's singles final earlier in the day also saw a stellar turnout. Zendaya, who recently starred in the tennis-themed romantic comedy "Challengers," was among the celebrities who witnessed the Czech Republic's Barbora Krejcikova claim her second Grand Slam title. Hollywood royalty Kate Beckinsale, Hugh Jackman, and Tom Cruise also graced the Royal Box for the match.
Wimbledon, known for its prestigious tradition and elegance, once again proved to be a magnet for the world's biggest stars, making the final day of the tournament a truly unforgettable event.
