Bec Hewitt and husband Lleyton appear tense at Wimbledon after it emerged a 'Beckham-style feud is brewing' between tennis champ and daughter Mia's rocker boyfriend
The power couple attended the Ladies' Doubles Final at Wimbledon in London on Sunday, sitting in the A-list Royal Box.
The two looked a tad tense at times, amid recent claims that 'Beckham-style feud is brewing' between the retired tennis champion and his daughter Mia's rocker boyfriend in recent weeks.
Lleyton, 44, was formally attired in a dark blue suit along with a dress shirt, and matching tie.
Singer Bec, 41, chose a bright red frock and at times hid her famous face behind a pair of designer sunglasses.

The couple chatted throughout the match, but wore tense expressions, perhaps over what was happening on the court.
It comes amid reports that Lleyton has concerns about the fast and loose lifestyle his eldest daughter Mia leads with her rock'n'roll boyfriend, Vanda Erich.
The 19-year-old musician and her Liquid Zoo frontman partner were first romantically linked in May last year when they were seen going for lunch in Surry Hills.
They are now often seen living wild and free, with sources claiming tennis champion Lleyton fears Mia is being led astray, according to Woman's Day.
'Lleyton is just like any dad out there and is super protective, especially of his girls. He is very much serving up the tough dad act right now,' an insider said.
'He wants Mia to be happy but he thinks she's still too young to be getting into any kind of serious relationship.'
The publication went on to claim there are signs a 'Beckham-style feud is brewing behind the scenes'.
The former Wimbledon star was reportedly unimpressed with images that emerged last year of Mia and Vanda smoking and acting up for cameras.

He is said to want Mia to experiment and enjoy life, but not at the cost of a healthy lifestyle and quality time with the family.
'Living her dreams is important but so is maintaining her relationship with her family,' the source said.
Notably, Mia is the only member of the Hewitt family who follows Vanda on social media.
Not even her younger brother Cruz can be found in Vanda's follow list, despite the singer following the 16-year-old's Instagram account.
Mia and Vanda have frequently been spotted spending time together at the beach and with their friends.
In September last year, the rising star, often dubbed a 'nepo baby', performed her first gig with her band Father's Favourite.
Mia, the daughter of Lleyton and his Home and Away star wife Bec, looked stylish in a tiny white skirt and black top as she wowed the crowd at a brewery in Sydney.
Her band's Instagram page describes the group as a 'bohemian folk rock duo'.
Mia was earlier seen during an outing with a group of friends in Sydney's Rose Bay as they stepped out at Rose Bay House for a meal.
The Father's Favourite folk singer shocked onlookers as she was seen smoking during the outing.
Her rock star boyfriend Vanda, the lead singer of the band Liquid Zoo, also acted up for the cameras as he was seen wearing shades and swearing while the group laughed.
The duo were also joined by one of Vanda's Liquid Zoo bandmates as they all got out of Mia's car together and headed for a bite to eat.
Mia's parents, Lleyton and Bec, met on the tennis court for a charity game at the Starlight Cup back in 1999.
The couple didn't reconnect until a few years later and finally met up in person in 2005, before getting engaged after a whirlwind romance that lasted six weeks.
Grand Slam champion Lleyton married actress Bec 18 years ago in a romantic ceremony at the Sydney Opera House.
As well as singer Mia, they also share another daughter, Ava, 14, and son Cruz.

One in five Britons splash out on concerts as Oasis spearheads a summer of top live acts
One in five adults are spending money on concerts this summer as fans flock to see shows such as Oasis, according to Barclays. Global stars who have already played in the UK recently include Beyonce and Pitbull. Olivia Rodrigo and Sabrina Carpenter also performed at the British Summer Time Festival in Hyde Park, London. Those surveyed said they would spend an average of £160.80 in total each on music events this summer. And Brits are also set to spend £1.06billion during Oasis's long-awaited reunion tour, which kicked off this month, economists at the bank predict. Spending on live music grew 2.5 per cent last month, compared to the year before. This helped to lift otherwise lacklustre spending on hospitality and leisure by 2.1 per cent. It is set to be a blockbuster summer for cinemas too. Popular releases, including Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning, helped spending in this sector rise 26.9 per cent.
