Andrew Garfield attends seventh day of Wimbledon Championships

The actor was seen sitting next to American actress Monica Barbaro as they watched the match between Sonay Kartal and Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova on Centre Court on Sunday.
The 41-year-old is best known for starring in The Amazing Spider-Man, as well as playing Eduardo Saverin in The Social Network while Barbaro is known for portraying Joan Baez in A Complete Unknown.
He recently starred alongside British actress Florence Pugh in the romance drama, We Live In Time.
He was among other familiar faces who were in attendance at the tennis tournament including British actor Tosin Cole.
Sitting in the Royal Box were Olympic swimming champions Duncan Scott, Matt Richards, and James Guy.
Former swimming champion Mark Foster was also seen in the Royal Box along with Trinidadian former international cricketer, Brian Lara.
Spectators were met with a cloudy start to the day followed by some light rain with some taking shelter under umbrellas and ponchos.
The rain was seen to interrupt Carlos Alcaraz's practice before his match against Russian Andrey Rublev who has won one of their previous three meetings – on the clay in Madrid last year – and has powered his way through to the fourth round at Wimbledon for the third time.
Meanwhile, on Court One spectators can expect to see Aryna Sabalenka who will face Elise Mertens later today.

ITV's Lorraine Kelly outraged by royal sketch as she reels 'how dare they'

Lorraine Kelly was left fuming as she said she 'draws the line' at the new Spitting Image puppet of Prince Harry and Paddington Bear. During Monday's instalment of Lorraine, the Scottish presenter chatted about the latest entertainment headlines with Russell Myers. The pair discussed the revival of iconic British satirical puppet series Spitting Image during their segment. ‌ The original programme first aired during the 1980s before concluding in 1996, achieving massive success throughout its run. ‌ Renowned for its sharp-witted commentary on political figures and celebrity personalities, the series went on to scoop both BAFTA and Emmy accolades. Now it's been revealed that the show is making a comeback, though it will now be broadcast on YouTube under the new title, Spitting Image Presents: The Rest is Bulls***. The debut episode features puppet caricatures of Prince Harry alongside Paddington Bear, with a brief preview aired on Lorraine, it was clear the ITV star was unimpressed, reports the Express. She exclaimed: "Can I just say, never mind Prince Harry, thanks very much, how dare they do that to Paddington Bear?! "What are they doing? ! He looks deranged. No, you can't do that to Paddington Bear, I draw the line, I draw the line." ‌ She continued: "Don't show me that anymore, that's traumatised me." The brief excerpt from the revived Spitting Image sketch shows the beloved children's character and the Royal figure positioned in a podcast-style setting, where Prince Harry is questioned about maintaining his peak performance. ‌ The puppet responds: "Well, Pads, an early start's important, so my butler Perkins gets up at 5am and does a 10k for me, then it's a session with my accountability coach. "I think it's important to be honest and transparent. I haven't told Megs about it yet." When the peculiar Paddington Bear lookalike inquired about his television habits, asking if he has a Netflix account, Harry's animated version quipped: "Ya, it's got $9 million in it." ‌ Lorraine couldn't help but react to the portrayal of Harry, remarking: "Oh, that's a bit unkind!" The blurb for the new series promises a show for those: "Wanting to laugh in the face of these anxiety inducing, squeaky bum times of global conflict, unhinged world leaders and megalomaniac Fin Tech bosses. "The (latex) gloves are off and it's not pulling any punches. This isn't just satire. It's a no holds barred up-to-the-minute assault on the world of politics, pop culture and media control."

Hollywood legend, 80, reveals why he has 'no real intentions' of acting again

Michael Douglas has explained why he hasn't taken up an acting role since 2022 after a career spanning six decades. The 80-year-old actor has had an incredible career, appearing in iconic films including Fatal Attraction, Basic Instinct, Ant-Man, Franklin, and One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest. After making his first on-screen appearance in 1966, the actor has explained why he thinks his 2025 role in Looking Through Water could be his last on-screen appearance. While at the conference at the Karlovy Vary International Film Festival in the Czech Republic, Michael explained: 'I have not worked since 2022 purposefully because I realised I had to stop. 'I had been working pretty hard for almost 60 years, and I did not want to be one of those people who dropped dead on the set. I have no real intentions of going back,' he said per Variety. He clarified: 'I say I'm not retired because if something special came up, I'd go back, but otherwise, no.' He then added that he does have 'one little independent movie' that he is 'trying to get a script out of'. But he concluded by saying that in the spirit of maintaining a good marriage,' he is 'happy to play the wife' to his partner Catherine Zeta-Jones. While at the conference, he also spoke about his tongue and throat cancer diagnosis in 2010 that he previously attributed to stress, his previous alcohol abuse, and years of heavy smoking. 'Stage four cancer is not a holiday, but there aren't many choices, are there?,'he said. 'I went with the program, involving chemo and radiation, and was fortunate. He added that had he needed surgery, his career would have been impacted: 'The surgery would have meant not being able to talk and removing part of my jaw, and that would have been limiting as an actor.' The actor has previously said that fatherhood is his priority rather than his career, as it once was. 'My career was the most important thing in my life, followed by marriage and children,' Michael told AARP The Magazine in 2010. 'And it's completely reversed now. I never anticipated starting a family and the joy of raising kids at my age.' More Trending The actor has three children: a son named Cameron, 46, from his first marriage to Diandra Luker, another son named Dylan Michael, 24, and a daughter named Carys Zeta, 22, from his second marriage to Catherine Zeta-Jones. In 2010, he also told The Guardian: 'During my first marriage, my career was the most important thing in my life. 'I clearly know I made mistakes. There were absences. My eldest son, Cameron, is in the middle of a very, very difficult and tragic time. Cameron has made a couple of big mistakes in his life. He's paid the price. On the other side of it, he's sober. The kids really miss him, and he misses them. I've taken them to visit. 'Now that my own priorities are entirely different, I'm always encouraging people to wait to have a family – get yourself sorted career-wise first as much as you can.' Got a story?

Ricky Hatton announces comeback bout after over a decade out of boxing

British boxing great Ricky Hatton is set for another comeback later this year – well over a decade since his last professional fight. The 46-year-old former light-welterweight and welterweight world champion confirmed he will take on United Arab Emirates fighter Eisa Al Dah on December 2 in a middleweight showdown in Dubai. Hatton, who has confirmed the contest will be held over eight three-minute rounds, retired in 2012 after losing to Vyacheslav Senchenko, which was itself a comeback after three years out of the sport. The Mancunian was supposed to be in Dubai to officially announce the fight with Al Dah but had to appear by video link instead after accidentally injuring his eye last week with his sunglasses. He said: 'I'm really devastated that I couldn't be there with everyone. I'd much rather be in the Dubai sun rather than the Manchester rain. (But) I'm very much looking forward to (the fight).' Al Dah, also 46, has won eight of his 11 fights and he vowed an all-action encounter against Hatton. He said: 'Trust me, this fight will not be like the Jake Paul and Mike Tyson fight' – referencing the widely-panned bout between the YouTuber-turned-boxer and the ex-world heavyweight champion last November. Hatton was a unified world champion at light-welterweight, beating IBF champion Kostya Tszyu and WBA titlist Carlos Maussa in 2005, before claiming the WBA welterweight strap in 2006 by outpointing Luis Collazo. PA Media Huge swathes of fans followed him to Las Vegas as he fought and was beaten by Floyd Mayweather and Manny Pacquiao, which led to Hatton battling drink and drug problems and a slide into depression that left him feeling suicidal. After a return against Senchenko and finishing with a record of 45 wins and three defeats, Hatton turned his hand to training although he did have an exhibition against Marco Antonio Barrera in 2022. He told 11.11 management on its Instagram: 'I'm absolutely delighted to say I'm stepping in the ring to give it another go. 'It's been well-documented I've had my struggles but I'm in a really good place now, loving life, trying to bring the next champions through. But the opportunity has come for me to get in the ring and do it again.'
