But the drizzly weather didn’t stop Hannah Waddingham who wowed in a bright summer dress as she arrived for the Centre Court action.
The Ted Lasso star, 49, looked gorgeous in a plunting purple dress, with a bold floral print and halter-neck style which flaunted her toned arms.

Play has been delayed by more than two hours on some courts at SW19, as organisers hope to get matches underway this afternoon.
Spectators are bracing themselves for more rain throughout the day, despite temperatures reaching a warm high of 19C.
Wimbledon fans will not have to fear a complete washout however, as the roofs on Centre Court and Court One can be used to enable matches involving stars such as Carlos Alcaraz, Naomi Osaka and Jannik Sinner to go ahead.
Play on Wimbledon’s infamous Centre Court is scheduled to see men’s fifth seed Daniil Medvedev play France’s Alexandre Mukker before Naomi Osaka continues her tennis comeback journey with a tough battle against American Emma Navarro.
Elsewhere, on Court No.1, British ace Emma Raducanu faces the experienced Elise Mertens, whilst last year’s male champion Carlos Alcaraz comes up against Australian Aleksandar Vukic and women’s second seed Coco Gauff plays Romanian Anca Todoni.
