From Prince George to Daniel Craig: Who is who in the Royal Box on the final day of Wimbledon?

Thousands of tennis fans are flocking to Wimbledon today for the last day of the tournament and the men’s final.

Novak Djokovic faces Carlos Alcaraz in the Wimbledon men’s singles final as the world’s two best players go head to head for the title on Centre Court.

Djokovic is attempting to win his fifth consecutive Wimbledon crown, which would move the Serbian level with Roger Federer on a men’s record eight singles titles.

On Saturday (15 July), Marketa Vondrousova triumphed over a heartbroken Ons Jabeur in straight sets to win the Wimbledon women’s title.

Above the mingling crowds throughout the past fortnight, senior members of the royal family, celebrities, and public figures have been seated inside the Royal Box.

Across the two weeks, the Royal Box has hosted famous faces including Wicked star Idina Menzel, former Bafta chair Krishnendu Majumdar, David Cameron, David Beckham, astronaut Tim Peake, Bear Grylls, retired tennis player Roger Federer, Andrew Lloyd Webber, and Duran Duran frontman Simon Le Bon.

Last weekend, actor Daniel Kaluuya, pop star Ellie Goulding, TV host Richard Osman, and director Richard Curtis all made appearances in the Royal Box, while Wednesday (12 July) saw Princess Margaret’s only daughter Lady Sarah Chatto, actor and writer Stephen Fry and ballet dancer Dame Darcey Bussell take their seats.

Throughout the second week of the tournament, singer-songwriter Jamie Cullum, musician Cliff Richard and presenter Louis Theroux made appearances in the Royal Box. For the women’s singles final, Harry Potter star Dame Maggie Smith, Indian actor Priyanka Chopra Jonas and her husband Nick Jonas, as well as Spider-Man star Andrew Garfield and Barbie actor Issa Rae were all in the Royal Box.

Several other members of the royal family have also been spotted across the last two weeks, including the Duchess of Gloucester, and the Princess of Wales, who is the royal patron of the All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club (AELTC).

The Prince and Princess of Wales are regular occupants of the Royal Box during tennis season, as are Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie. Today, William, Kate, Princess Charlotte and Prince George – but no Prince Louis – will be in the Royal Box.

King Charles III and Queen Camilla, though, rarely make an appearance at Wimbledon – however, Wednesday was an exception for Her Majesty. Charles was last seen at the tournament, as the former Prince of Wales, in 2012, where he watched Federer triumph over Fabio Fognini. Before that, he had not attended Wimbledon since 1970.

Here’s everything we know about the biggest names in the Royal Box for the final day of Wimbledon 2023.
