Hugh Grant, 60, yawns and rubs his eyes as he tries to stay awake at Wimbledon alongside wife Anna Eberstein, 41 (who recycles a £235 Michael Kors mini dress for the outing)
Hugh Grant, 60, looked to be ready for bed as he watched a tennis match alongside wife Anna Elisabet Eberstein, 41, on Wednesday at Wimbledon.
The couple were among a host of stars who attended day nine of the tennis, and settled in to watch all four men’s quarter-final matches take place – including Roger Federer and Novak Djokovic’s games.
But the action on Centre Court didn’t seem thrilling enough for Hugh, who was seen yawning widely and rubbing his eyes tiredly.

For the outing, Hugh wore a black suit and tie with a lilac shirt.
The in-demand star has clearly been burning the candle at both ends; he has two film projects upcoming – Five Eyes and Dungeons & Dragons.
Anna looked radiant in a navy Michael Kors mini dress with quirky pockets and white embroidery across the bodice.
The item appears to be a favourite of the television producer, as it marked the second time she has worn it in two weeks.
Last month, Anna was seen in the chic £235 shift dress as she enjoyed a dinner date with Hugh at 5 Hertford Street in London before hopping on a Vespa to head home.

Anna won’t have been the only star recycling her ensemble due to the dress code at evian’s VIP Suite, which was certified Carbon Neutral by the Carbon Trust.
As part of the invitation, evian encouraged its VIP guests to dress ‘Smart + Eco-Consciously’ this year, which meant all guests recycled their favourite looks, wore looks made from recycled materials or from their favourite sustainable designers.
Ironically, Anna was not a guest of the evian suite, but still did her bit for the environment by rewearing one of her pieces.

Anna’s outing comes after husband Hugh hit back at an internet claim he only married her ‘for passport reasons’.
The star came across the claim listed as part of a Google search last month and, taking issue with it, set the record straight on Twitter.
Firing back, Hugh – who married Anna in 2018 – insisted that the reason why he and his wife tied the knot was because of ‘love’.
He shared a screenshot of the search results for his wife Anna’s full name, which brought up an online article, published by site Nicki Swift in December 2020, claiming he married Anna for ‘passport reasons’.

Bridget Jones’s Diary actor Hugh married for the first time three years ago and the article quotes him stating in an interview with USA Today that he and Anna believe marriage is a ‘pretty preposterous social construct’, before discussing their different names on their passports.
Hugh, who shares three children with TV producer Anna, said while discussing getting married: ‘I didn’t like going through immigration into countries where they’d say, “Everyone with a Grant passport over here, and all the others through there.”
‘[Anna] went through with the nannies. That seemed all wrong.’
However, Hugh – who previously dated Elizabeth Hurley – has now insisted that he actually didn’t marry for practical reasons and married for love.

After coming across the search screengrab, Hugh shared it via Twitter and fired back: ‘No I didn’t, @internet. I married her because I love her.’
Not stopping there, Hugh was then seen hitting back at a person who joked he had ‘forgotten’ his wife and needed to Google her.
They had tweeted in response to Hugh: ‘Did Hugh Grant forget who his wife is and have to Google it?’
Again, clearing up any confusion, Hugh firmly responded: ‘No. A friend sent it to me.’
