Gary Lineker and ex-stepdaughter Ella Bux put on a smiley display at Wimbledon

Gary Lineker and his ex-stepdaughter Ella Bux appeared to still be on good terms as they joined one another for a trip to Wimbledon.

Ella is the daughter of Danielle Bux, Gary's ex-wife who he was married to between 2009 and 2016 before they made the decision to split.

As thousands of tennis fans flocked to Wimbledon to see Andy Murray play against Stefanos Tsitsipas on Centre Court, among the hustle and bustle was Gary and Ella.

Both Gary and Ella dressed for the occasion which is known for its luxury and even its royal guests visiting the famous sporting centre.

They both appeared to be in good sports as Gary stepped out wearing a grey blazer and risked the scorching temperatures as he opted for a pair of smart black trousers and shoes. He accessorised his look with a snazzy patterned tie and a pair of Wayfarer sunglasses to protect his eyes from the sun.

Meanwhile, Ella, 21, looked sensational as she slipped into a stylish pink jumpsuit which allowed her to enjoy the brief breeze across the tennis grounds. Ella completed her look with a pair of flat shoes while accessorising with a pair of dainty earrings and a necklace.

Her brunette tresses were styled into loose natural waves, cascading over her shoulder as she and her former stepfather smiled at one another throughout the day.

However, it is not known whether Danielle was in attendance at the event although she has posted on social media that she is visiting London.

This isn't the first time that the former blended family have reunited and in 2022, they were all smiles as they put on a united front during the annual Christmas dinner.

Both Gary and Danielle have remained close friends since their decision to split with the former Tottenham ace taking to social media at the time of the announcement to say they remain "very close and the greatest of friends".

Gary has previously revealed that he and Danielle are in constant contact and often stay at one another's homes, with Danielle staying at his London home, while he often crashes at her home in Los Angeles where she has now relocated since remarrying.

He told the Mirror: "We still speak three times a day, we text all the time."

Since remarrying, Danielle has gone on to have a daughter, Romy Wren, born in August 2017 and her former husband was one of the first few people to send their congratulations.
