Ellie Bamber's new boyfriend revealed as TV star as they snog courtside at Wimbledon
ELLIE Bamber's new boyfriend has been revealed as a TV star as they snogged courtside at Wimbledon. The Surrey -born actress, 28, has famously taken on the role of Kate Moss in a biopic, entitled Moss and Freud. 5 5 5 She was pictured last year looking like the spitting image of Croydon model Kate, 51, in her heyday, finishing off her bod copy-cat look with blue eyeshadow and a slick of nude gloss. Later on in the first look scene, she was captured puffing away on a cigarette as she continued her in-character role. Now, Ellie has been spotted with her new man at Wimbledon, with his identity revealed as Danish actor and model Oliver Overgaard Reichhardt. The actress looked in great spirits in dark shades seated next to her handsome boyfriend. Oliver opted for a light blue shirt, which he paired with chains and a white t-shirt underneath. The couple, who haven't shared a glimpse of each other yet on social media, couldn't keep their hands off each other. Ellie was seen resting her head on Oliver's shoulder in one photo, and in another they were seen holding hands as they got up from their seats. Danish model Oliver was also seen planting a kiss on Ellie's head in another snap. She looked stunning in a grey backless top and matching shorts, with a black bag over her shoulder. Ellie's new man is currently signed to Lindberg Management, which represents Scandinavian and European actors. He also starred in Danish TV series Salsa from 2023 to 2025, and has worked on short films called The Shepherd in 2023 and Parat in 2022. Oliver's Instagram account includes some of his impressive modelling snaps. Meanwhile, Ellie's last boyfriend was the Bodyguard's Richard Madden, who she split from in 2019 after 18 months together. A source close to him said at the time: 'They're both absolutely gutted but it was a decision made for the best. 'They were arguing almost daily towards the end and, despite considering couples' therapy, it became evident there were far too many issues that could not be fixed. 'Richard is the toast of Hollywood at the moment, and understandably wants to let his hair down. Ellie is a bit quieter, and wants to focus purely on her work. It felt like their day-to-day lives were increasingly becoming worlds apart. 'They were pretty inseparable from the day they met — and their friends and family had all merged — so obviously everyone around them is gutted too. 'But both Ellie and Richard hope to remain friends.' 5 5

King and Queen roll out red carpet for the Macrons during French state visit
The King and Queen rolled out the red carpet for the President of France Emmanuel Macron and his wife Brigitte in Windsor at the start of the French state visit to the UK. Charles and Camilla warmly greeted the French leader and the first lady on a specially constructed Royal Dais near the town's Windsor and Eton Riverside train station, with the castle in the backdrop. Mr Macron dolled out the Gallic charm by taking Camilla's hand and leaning forward to air kiss it, having earlier greeted the Princess of Wales at RAF Northolt with the same gesture. There were 'la bise' kisses between Mrs Macron and the Queen, and as Mr Macron stood chatting to the King with ease, the president placed his hand on the monarch's back and gave it a few affectionate rubs. The King was sporting a burst blood vessel in his right eye, which is said to have developed overnight and be unrelated to any other health conditions. Nearly 400 military personnel from the Army, RAF and Royal Navy lined the High Street along the ceremonial route and a 41-gun salute sounded in nearby Home Park in Mr Macron's honour to mark his arrival. Amid pomp and ceremony, military bands played both British and French music for the waiting crowds, and a Captain's Escort of the Household Cavalry Mounted Regiment, in their plumed helmets and shiny silver breastplates, and riding Irish chargers, formed a Guard of Honour. The Prince and Princess of Wales accompanied the King's guests to the Berkshire town after meeting them at RAF Northolt in west London on Tuesday morning and joining them for the 14-mile car journey. Kate was carrying out the royal duties on Tuesday after opening up about her 'rollercoaster' cancer recovery, its life-changing impact and putting on a 'brave face' last week. She channelled diplomatic royal dressing choosing to wear French fashion house Christian Dior for the celebratory occasion. Her earrings belonged to Diana, Princess of Wales and the pearl necklace was from the late Queen's collection. The Christian Dior jacket is the 30 Montaigne Rose Des Vents Bar Jacket and a piece from the 2024 collection. It was reimagined by Maria Grazia Chiuri, who was inspired by the original first created in 1947 by Dior himself. Kate's hat was by Jess Collett. The Queen was wearing a bright emerald green chiffon dress by Anna Valentine and a hat by Philip Treacy, and an emerald and diamond brooch that belonged to the late Queen. Hundreds of members of the public packed the streets hoping to get a glimpse of the royals and their guests on their carriage ride through the town on their way to Windsor Castle. Mr Macron and the King chatted enthusiastically as Household Cavalry made their way down the road and the open-top carriages arrived. Charles then led Mr Macron into their landau and chuckled as they chatted while taking their seats. The state visit is the first to the UK by an EU head of state since Brexit, and the first to be held at Windsor, rather than Buckingham Palace, for more than a decade, thanks to ongoing refurbishments at the London residence. At a glittering state banquet being staged in the castle's vast medieval St George's Hall on Tuesday evening, the King will stress the vital partnership between France and the UK in the face of a 'multitude of complex threats', declaring 'as friends and as allies, we face them together'. He will highlight how 'these challenges know no borders: no fortress can protect us against them this time'. Mr Macron will address parliamentarians in the Palace of Westminster's Royal Gallery in the afternoon and, on Thursday, join a UK-France Summit at Downing Street. Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer has signalled a 'reset' in relations between the UK and Europe as he looks to heal the wounds caused by the Brexit years. Defence, growth, security, migration and French tactics on tackling small boats will be discussed, with the two leaders expected to dial in to speak to other allied nations who are looking to support any future peace deal in Ukraine. Downing Street said on Monday that the UK's relationship with France was 'key' to dealing with boat crossings, following reports French police officers had used knives to puncture a boat off the coast.
