He recently starred alongside British actress Florence Pugh in the romance drama, We Live In Time.
He was among other familiar faces who were in attendance at the tennis tournament including British actor Tosin Cole.
Sitting in the Royal Box were Olympic swimming champions Duncan Scott, Matt Richards, and James Guy.
Former swimming champion Mark Foster was also seen in the Royal Box along with Trinidadian former international cricketer, Brian Lara.
Spectators were met with a cloudy start to the day followed by some light rain with some taking shelter under umbrellas and ponchos.

The rain was seen to interrupt Carlos Alcaraz's practice before his match against Russian Andrey Rublev who has won one of their previous three meetings – on the clay in Madrid last year – and has powered his way through to the fourth round at Wimbledon for the third time.
Meanwhile, on Court One spectators can expect to see Aryna Sabalenka who will face Elise Mertens later today.

Cameron Norrie last Briton standing in Wimbledon singles
However, no one appeared to tell Norrie and Chile's Nicolás Jarry, who left the court to a chorus of boos after exchanging words at the net following a five-set rollercoaster. Jarry was frustrated with the time Norrie was taking on his second serve, urging umpire Eva Asderaki-Moore to intervene over alleged time-wasting. Norrie, fired up by a partisan crowd, grew increasingly vocal, while Jarry became more and more vexed – though he had cooled down by the time he faced the media. 'I just told him something private at the end. That's between us,' he said. 'He played great, he was very focused, and he knows how to win these sorts of matches.' Norrie also played the role of diplomat as he recorded one of the finest wins of his career on his favourite court, though a top score of 23 bounces between points does seem excessive. 'It's a big match for both of us and I think he was just frustrated to lose, I understand that,' he said, 'He said I was being too vocal but I was aiming that at my team and pulling from the crowd. I've got nothing but credit for the way he played. Nico came to compete on every point, he played unbelievably well and fought to the very last point.' Lot of love from @Wimbledon's No.1 court for @cam_norrie 😍 🎥 @Wimbledon Norrie appeared to be racing into the last eight, spurning a match point to wrap things up in straight sets. Two hours later, they were still trading blows – including some verbal shots – before the British No 3 eventually prevailed 6–3, 7–6, 6–7, 6–7, 6–3. Jarry, a qualifier and former world No 16 whose ranking has tumbled after an illness that affected his balance and vision, sent down 46 aces and struck 105 winners as the pair exchanged brutal groundstrokes that echoed like gunfire beneath the No 1 Court roof, closed as lighting flashed overhead. He had come from two sets down to beat the eighth seed Holger Rune in the first round, so had no qualms about going deep once again – although Norrie is regarded as one of the fittest players on the ATP Tour. Ultimately, the exertions of Jarry's comeback tilted the momentum back towards the Briton, who is now one win from matching his semi-final run of three years ago. 'I forgot to get my coach a birthday present – it's his birthday today – so that one is for him,' said Norrie, who is coached by his close friend and former college roommate Facundo Lugones. 'At the start of this year I was struggling with confidence and had some doubts. I just wanted to enjoy my tennis a bit more, and I'm doing that – but it's a bonus to win. 'I had to hang in there because he was doing an amazing job of staying with me. What a battle – and it's just great to be through to another quarter-final at the best tournament in the world.'

Midge Ure announces dates for ‘immersive' tour
The 71-year-old musician, James 'Midge' Ure, who co-wrote Do They Know It's Christmas? for Band Aid, will start his A Man Of Two Worlds Tour in May 2026. Ure is best known for being the frontman of electronic pop group Ultravox, whose track Vienna (the title track from their studio album of the same name) is among the most well-known songs of the 80s. Midge Ure said his upcoming tour will be immersive (Matt Crossick/PA) Ure said: 'This is my two worlds coming together. 'Almost every album I have made over the last 40-plus years has featured at least one instrumental track. Instrumental music is one of my main loves. 'I realised most of these have never been performed live. So my intention on this tour is to seamlessly insert some of these atmospheric, cinematic instrumentals between a selection of hits and favourite album tracks.' The tour promises to offer a 'rare and deeply personal concert experience' for fans by bringing together album favourites with 'cinematic instrumentals'. Speaking about the tour, Ure said he wanted to 'take the audience on a journey rather than just play a list of individual songs'. Ure said he wants to take his audience on a journey (Ian West/PA) 'This will be an immersive experience for the audience both visually and sonically,' he said. Ure's musical career has spanned decades with his early years performing as part of bands such as Irish rockers Thin Lizzy, new wave groups Visage and Rich Kids before going on to have a successful solo career. The Ivor Novello winner, who has also been nominated for a Grammy, became an OBE in 2005 for services to music and charity. The musician went on to celebrate his 70th birthday with a sold-out show at the Royal Albert Hall in 2023. The tour will take place in May and June 2026 and is expected to open in Bath with performances in Liverpool, Sheffield and Edinburgh.

Mel B's olive branch for Geri as she plans second ceremony after London wedding
Spice Girls icon Mel B and Rory McPhee recently tied the knot at St. Paul's Cathedral in London on Saturday afternoon, but three of the singer's former bandmates weren't in attendance Melanie Brown, better known as Mel B, recently tied the knot with long-term partner, Rory McPhee, at an intimate ceremony at St. Paul's Cathedral in London this weekend. They said their 'I dos' at the venue after their three-year engagement. Mel and family friend Rory, 37, have known each other for years, and he has worked as her hairstylist. Things are thought to have turned romantic between the pair in 2018 and Rory proposed to Mel back in 2022. While fans were eager to spot fellow Spice Girls in attendance, only Emma Bunton, 49, was photographed at the event. As Mel C couldn't attend, she took to her Instagram page to pay tribute to her pal.

Geri also chose not to post any well wishes to Mel B on social media, adding further fuel to the fire on their rift. It's said Mel B and her new husband, along with their guests, enjoyed a lavish reception at the Shangri-La at The Shard for drinks, food, followed by an evening filled with dancing. Although the couple already enjoyed a ceremony, it has been revealed there will be a second ceremony abroad this summer, which Mel B says will be "more informal, sexy and beautiful". It will act as a second chance for Mel's former bandmates to celebrate her marriage. She told The Sun: "In one incredible afternoon I found two perfect dresses. One beautiful classic dress by Josephine Scott, a British designer, and one stunning dramatic dress by a US designer, Justin Alexander.' Meanwhile, Victoria Beckham, who was notably absent, took a moment to acknowledge Mel's special day via Instagram. Posting a glamorous throwback of the two bandmates, Victoria captioned it with: 'Sending love to you @officialmelb! @rorymcphee is a very lucky man! xx.' Mel C, who was also unable to attend, shared her congratulations online. Posting a happy photo of the bride and groom, she wrote: 'So so happy for you both and beyond gutted I couldn't be there. Excited to celebrate with you really soon. Yipee!' Scary Spice recently took to Instagram to share a behind-the-scenes image from her special day. Captured from behind in her gown, Mel stood with her back to the camera, revealing the words 'Just Married' delicately embroidered on her dress. Her bridal look featured a gorgeous long veil and pearl embellishments at the collar and cuffs, giving the ensemble a timeless and regal finish. Her husband Rory, 37, opted for a nod to his heritage, wearing a traditional Scottish kilt. The happy couple shared a smooch on the steps of the cathedral before leaving the venue in a white, horse-drawn carriage - a fairy-tale moment for the newlyweds. Guests followed in true British style, riding to the reception in classic red double-decker Routemaster buses.
