Another star-studded day in the Royal Box! Jude Law, Hugh grant and Sir David Attenborough mingle with royals, tennis greats and entrepreneurs at Centre Court... but how many faces do YOU recognise?
- Royals, celebrities and former sports stars all mingled in the Royal Box at Wimbledon this afternoon
- High profile tennis fans including Sir David Attenborough, Damien Lewis, Jude Law and Hugh Grant attended
- Also spotted in the star-studded box at centre court were Leona Lewis, Michael McIntyre and Bear Grylls
- They are on hand to Novak Djokovic and Rafa Nadal take to the court in their respective semi finals
It is one of the hottest tickets in sports, so it is of no surprise the Royal Box was packed with a dazzling array of stars as the Wimbledon men's semi finals got underway this afternoon.
Actors Hugh Grant and Damien Lewis rubbed shoulders with pop star Leona Lewis and her dancer fiancé Dennis Jauch, while former tennis pro Pat Cash snapped a selfie with adventurer Bear Grylls.
Along the front row it was largely royal invitees, with regular fixtures Prince and Princess Michael of Kent taking their seats alongside the Duchess of Gloucester and Princess Margaret's son Lord Snowdon.
The great and the good from world tennis were also well represented, with chiefs of the Australian, French and US national organisations all in attendance.
Elsewhere there was a smattering of leading lights from the world of business, with Sir Joseph Hotung and Charles Delevingne among the most notable.
Despite the intrigue and excitement that must have passed between the high profile spectators, all eyes were most definitely on Centre Court when Novak Djokovic claimed victory against Spain's Roberto Bautista Agut.
Later they will watch Roger Federer take on Rafa Nadal in a clash of the titans.
