Hannah Waddingham, Jodie Foster and Sir Sam Mendes are among the stars in the Royal Box for Wimbledon day 13.

The Ted Lasso star, 51, was seen chatting with TV presenter Davina McCall in the royal box as she attended the event at the All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club in London.

Emmy-winner Waddingham wore a simple white dress which she paired with black sunglasses, and her signature platinum blonde bob was styled with elegant waves.

The star was pictured in animated conversation with McCall – who wore a simple ensemble consisting of a bright green maxi dress and sleek black heels.

They were joined in the royal box by a host of celebrities, including Hollywood star Foster, who is best known for starring in films such as The Silence Of The Lambs (1992) and The Accused (1988).

The Oscar-winning actress wore a light blue dress and bold white sunglasses and was accompanied by her wife of over a decade, photographer and director Alexandra Hedison, who opted for a summery white suit.

Others attending the 2026 Wimbledon Championships on Saturday include Oscar-winning filmmaker Sir Sam, who is known for smash-hit blockbusters such as American Beauty, the Bond movie Skyfall and 1917.

The acclaimed director is also behind a series of four upcoming biopic films which will depict the lives of the the members of pioneering 1960s rock band The Beatles.

The Beatles – A Four-Film Cinematic Event is set for release in 2028, and will star Normal People’s Paul Mescal, Saltburn star Barry Keoghan, Babygirl actor Harris Dickinson and Stranger Things’ Joseph Quinn as the Fab Four.

Sir Sam wore a double-breasted light grey suit, which he dressed down with black trainers, and was joined at the tennis tournament by his wife Alison Balsom – who wore a navy maxi dress.

The Devil Wears Prada star Stanley Tucci was also among those in attendance and wore a white shirt, khaki trousers and a navy pinstripe blazer.

Former Made In Chelsea star Sophie Habboo looked chic in a white t-shirt and a matching satin skirt, which she accessorised with a striped brown bag and a pair of black sunglasses.

Other celebrities in attendance include former Little Mix star Leigh-Anne Pinnock, who was photographed at the event alongside her husband, footballer Andre Gray.

The singer wore a tight-fitted pastel yellow dress which flaunted her growing baby bump, just days after the couple announced they are expecting their third child.
