From cheerful banter to shut-eye
Before nodding off, Grant appeared to be enjoying himself — smiling and chatting with Queen Camilla and her sister Annabel in the early part of the match. But clearly, either the sun or the pace of the game caught up with him.
Other celebrities in the Royal Box seemed wide awake. Cate Blanchett, Glen Powell, and Joe Alwyn were among the attentive spectators who watched Djokovic advance to his record 14th Wimbledon semi-final.
As for Queen Camilla, she remained fully alert throughout the event and even held a private exchange with Djokovic himself after the match. When asked about their conversation, the tennis legend stayed tight-lipped. “It was a very pleasant exchange,” he told reporters. “She asked me something I didn’t expect — it wasn’t about tennis.”
Meanwhile, Queen Camilla received a warm welcome upon her arrival at Centre Court, earning applause from the crowd — a moment some online fans were quick to highlight. “Eat that, haters,” one wrote. “Camilla just got a standing ovation at Wimbledon.”
As for Hugh Grant, he hasn’t commented publicly about his mid-match nap. But if there were ever a time to sleep through history — perhaps a Centre Court tiebreak wasn’t the ideal moment.
