Andre and Steffi – who married in 2001 – were first introduced at Wimbledon in 1992, so the grounds hold a lot of special memories for them. Together, they share two children – a daughter, Jaz, and a son, Jaden. 

Less than 24 hours before he arrived at Centre Court, Andre had posted the most adorable tribute to Steffi.

Andre, 54, was last spotted courtside at Wimbledon in 2017. At the time he was joined by tennis player, Mario Ancic. 

A star-studded day out, Andre's latest appearance at Centre Court coincided with the Princess of Wales's second public engagement since announcing her cancer diagnosis in March. Other A-listers in attendance at Wimbledon included Benedict Cumberbatch, Julia Roberts, Courteney Cox and Johnny McDaid.

As Princess Kate headed over to the royal box with her sister, Pippa Middleton, and daughter, Princess Charlotte, onlookers in the crowd stood up and cheered in a poignant and emotional moment. 

Following the match, Kate is expected to present the trophy to the winner. Her last public appearance came in June after she was spotted at Trooping the Colour. In an update about her health ahead of the King's birthday parade, Kate said that she is "making good progress" but "there are good days and bad days".
