Actresses Lily James and Cynthia Erivo have taken their seats in Wimbledon's royal box on the 11th day of the championships. James, 37, best known for her roles in the 2015 live-action adaptation of Cinderella and as a young Donna in the 2018 film Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again, arrived at the south-west London grounds wearing a polka dot maxi dress paired with black sandals and sunglasses.

Stars in the Royal Box

She was joined in the prestigious Centre Court box by Wicked star Erivo, 39, who wore a baby pink suit. Erivo was accompanied by Paul Howells, who, alongside the actress herself, invested in the recent West End stage adaptation Bram Stoker's Dracula – in which Erivo played all 23 roles.

Also watching the action from the royal box is Ted Lasso star Hannah Waddingham, 51, who opted for a 'Wimbledon white' suit complete with a matching clutch bag and nails, nude heels and sunglasses. Waddingham's grand slam appearance comes days after she attended the British Grand Prix in Silverstone, where she joined stars including Queen's Sir Brian May and singer Adele.
