Leonardo DiCaprio spotted in Royal Box at Wimbledon with fellow actors and former tennis champions

Leonardo DiCaprio spotted in Royal Box at Wimbledon with fellow actors and former tennis champions

7NEWS12-07-2025
Hollywood legend Leonardo DiCaprio has been busted — according to star-gazing fans — in Wimbledon's Royal Box flirting with two former tennis greats.
Once again the Royal Box was stacked with personalities overnight, with Titanic star DiCaprio undoubtedly the most famous.
The 50-year-old is also famous, or rather infamous, for dating women who are more than 20 years younger than him.

So naturally when the BBC cameras cut away from the Carlos Alcaraz-Taylor Fritz action to show DiCaprio being introduced to two women behind him, social media lit up.
DiCaprio did seem to be enjoying himself as he chatted away merrily to former tennis stars Dominika Cibulkova and Garbine Muguruza.
Muguruza is of course a former world No.1 who made the final of the Australian Open in 2020 after winning the French Open and Wimbledon in 2016 and 2017 respectively.

The 36-year-old Cibulkova — who would be roughly 10 years older than DiCaprio's usual dating interests — played in the Wimbledon quarter-finals on three occasions and also made the Australian Open final in 2014.
Fans had no doubt what they thought DiCaprio was up to when they saw him — sans regular baseball cap — and looking streamlined.
'Leonardo DiCaprio, kind of flirting with Garbine Muguruza at Wimbledon's Centre Court,' one fan wrote on social media.
And another: 'Garbiñe Muguruza back at Wimbledon as a spectator!!🥹🤍and Leo DiCaprio is there too, lol.'
And another: 'Leonardo DiCaprio in the stands and a few girls suddenly forget they came for tennis. That's what happens when Hollywood meets Wimbledon.'
And another: 'Didn't know how much I needed Leonardo DiCaprio and Garbiñe Muguruza in the same photo.'
And another: 'Garbine Muguruza is sitting right behind Leonardo DiCaprio at Wimbledon.'
Of course, he copped plenty of heat for his reputation as a 'young ladies man' too, suggesting now that his reputation is permanently damaged.
After the official Wimbledon account posted a picture of the movie-star, fans immediately roasted him.
Rami Malek was another high-profile star seen in the box at Wimbeldon.

'Probably thinking to himself, 'if this match goes on any longer, my date will be too old for me',' one said.
And another: 'Warn all the under 25's.'
And another: 'Where are all of his girlfriends?'
And another: 'Is he scanning for 25 year olds?'
Others in the box included Hollywood actors Benedict Cumberbatch, Rami Malek and James Norton, and fashion editor Anna Wintour.
Cricket legend Sachin Tendulkar was also spotted.

Beyond the Gold: The highs, lows and whoas of the 2025 Logies

Did you go to bed at a normal time last night instead of bingeing an epic four-and-a-half hours of the 65th TV Week Logie Awards? Honestly, great call. Luckily, deputy TV editor Meg Watson and culture reporter Nell Geraets were up until the wee hours watching and live blogging for you. Here's what you missed: THE HIGHS Some brutal honesty from Sam Pang and the presenters In his third consecutive turn as host, Sam Pang again proved why he's the right guy for the job: daring enough to roast the industry and good-natured enough to get away with it. The jokes weren't quite as pointy as last year, often opting for easy targets such as MAFS being trashy and Ray Martin being old, but there were some good one-liners and decent swings at his own network, too. 'Channel 10, of course, replaced The Project with 10News+, which is like the Titanic being replaced with the OceanGate submarine,' he said, as the hosts of the struggling new show laughed awkwardly in the crowd. Kitty Flanagan and Anne Edmonds also gave a special shoutout to Netflix, as the only streaming platform that seems to work. And things really went up a notch, when beloved Logies troll Tom Gleeson took the stage, presenting with Gold Logie nominee Poh Ling Yeow. 'You are not going to win, just so you know. Because you're not on Channel Seven,' the Hard Quiz host said to a few gasps from the crowd. 'Channel Seven [the host network] are giving out awards for themselves … It's like Channel Seven invited us to their house so we can watch them have a wank.' MW Lynne McGranger being laid to rest inside a Logie Loading As wonderful as it was simply witnessing Lynne McGranger, who has portrayed Irene Roberts on Home and Away for 33 years, win the accolades she deserves, it was her speech that had me slow-clapping into the night. Sure, last year's Gold Logie winner Larry Emdur promised he'd get the initials of his fellow nominees tattooed on his butt on national TV if he won, but McGranger went a step further, explaining how she was going to use the coveted trophy beyond the grave. 'In a few years time, when I die, I might chop the head off, scoop it out, put my ashes in there, screw the top back on and give it to Clancy, my beautiful daughter, who is here tonight, and she can put it on the mantelpiece,' the 72-year-old said while admiring her prize. Living through eternity in a golden trophy – you can't get much more iconic than that. NG A perfect moment for Magda Magda Szubanski was this year's inductee into the Logies Hall of Fame, joining the likes of Graham Kennedy, Noni Hazlehurst and Bert Newton. She was celebrated with a great package highlighting her work from The D-Generation to Fast Forward to Kath & Kim, and kind words from screen legends including Melissa McCarthy, George Miller, Matt Lucas, Rebel Wilson, Richard E. Grant, Gina Riley and Jane Turner. Loading Szubanski, who revealed earlier this year she's been diagnosed with mantle cell lymphoma, was unable to attend the ceremony but sent a moving message that had the crowd up on their feet. 'I want to say first of all ... I'm not being awarded this honour because I've got cancer,' she said. 'I'm getting this because of 40 years of hard work. I don't feel like an imposter. I feel like I've earned it.' She also spoke about how difficult the past few months have been for her and her family, offering thanks to the fans: 'The love and support that I have felt, like a tsunami from the Australian public, has been overwhelming. And I have to tell you, it really helps.' MW THE LOWS Pretty much all the music The musical interludes are often my favourite part of award shows – refreshing palate cleansers that get you rearing to go for the next categories. The performances at this year's Logies, however, did not have me rearing to go. First up was Jimmy Barnes, who sang Working Class Man in honour of its 40th anniversary. It was honestly a bit awkward, as Sam Pang noted in his monologue, considering he was singing it to a room filled with people who are the opposite of working class. Barnesy was then followed by Guy Sebastian, who used the awards as one big plug for his upcoming album 100 Times Around the Sun. While they backed his track Get It Done with all kinds of lights, lasers and gizmos, it just wasn't all that memorable. Then there was Richard Marx. Oh Marx – what were you doing at the Logies? Yes, I know, he recently became a coach on The Voice Australia. And yes, he's talented. But his rendition of Should've Known Better ended in an extremely awkward exchange with the audience, where he threw it over to them to sing the rest of the chorus, and no one knew the lyrics. It was painful to watch. NG The length, oh my god, the length It's joked about every year, but the length of this ceremony is absolutely out of control. The telecast ran for four and a half hours, making it a full feature-length movie longer than high-profile international counterparts such as the Emmys. What are we doing here? Do we really need extended crowd work from the likes of M AFS 'experts' Alessandra Rampolla and John Aiken? Could host network Channel 7 start playing the Home and Away theme song when speeches run too long? There's just no way that any normal human being stayed up until midnight on a school night to see McGranger take Gold. MW THE WOAH RIP streaming? Two of the most-nominated shows of the night – Apple Cider Vinegar (eight nods) and Territory (seven) – left with either little or absolutely nothing. The former won just one trophy, for best miniseries or telemovie, and the latter won zero prizes, despite being a favourite to win in multiple categories. Netflix, the streamer behind both shows, took home just one award. Not quite the result most were expecting, especially given the relative dominance of streaming in this year's nomination pool. NG

Alex de Minaur stuns tennis world with mind-blowing point in win over Frances Tiafoe

Alex de Minaur has stunned the tennis world with a remarkable point on his way to the quarter-finals of the Canadian Open. In a battle between two of the best movers on the men's circuit, ninth-seeded de Minaur fought off seventh-seeded American Frances Tiafoe 6-2 4-6 6-4 in their round-of-16 clash in Toronto on Sunday (local time). Know the news with the 7NEWS app: Download today The Australian got off to a sizzling start, racing through the first set 6-2 before Tiafoe regrouped in the second to force the match into a decider. But it was at 4-4 and deuce in the deciding set when the match was turned on its head with one of the points of the year. Tiafoe, who was serving, appeared to have done enough to win the point several times, only for de Minaur to extend the point with some unbelievable shots. The American crunched a short forehand wide into the corner, but was left shocked as de Minaur anticipated it and miraculously kept the ball back in play. Tiafoe then played a clever drop shot, but de Minuar then showed off his blistering pace to chase it down and force his opponent into an error. The Aussie then landed the crucial break before serving out the match. But it was that pivotal point that had everyone talking. 'Are you kidding me? The Demon at his vert best,' the commentator said. 'There's just some turbo boosters with that movement, that was just unbelievable.' De Minaur's renowned return game held him in good stead as he converted five of the 10 break points he generated during the match, compared with the American's three of seven chances. However, the Australian will be looking for an improvement on his service game for his quarter-final, after landing just 42 per cent of his first deliveries. Tiafoe hit more aces than de Minaur (10 to six) and more winners (29 to 23), but the American also gave up more free points with unforced 49 errors, compared with 35 from his opponent. 'It was never going to be easy, and Frances has the ability to turn the switch on whenever he wants, so it is always very tricky to put him away,'' de Minaur said after the match. 'I think I battled him, myself and the conditions, and I am happy to sneak away with the win today.'' De Minaur has found a rich vein of form in the countdown to the year's final major, the US Open on the hard courts at Flushing Meadows in New York, which starts on August 24. The Australian is already a two-time US Open quarter-finalist (2020 and 2024) and has his sights set on making his first grand slam semi-final, having reached the quarters of all four majors. His timing could not be better, de Minaur coming to Toronto after clinching the Washington Open singles championship last week, his 10th ATP Tour title. The Washington event was also played on hard courts, making the Aussie one of the most in-form players on the surface. His win over Tiafoe stretched de Minaur's winning streak to eight matches. De Minaur has previously reached the Canadian Open final, losing the 2023 decider against Italy's Jannik Sinner, who has since risen to the top of the world rankings. De Minaur is not the only Australian left in the men's singles in Toronto, with 18th seed and defending champion Alexei Popyrin to take on top-seeded German Alexander Zverev. Both of the quarter-finals will be played on Monday (Tuesday AEST).
