Richard Osman and his wife Ingrid Oliver were a picture of happiness on Monday as they attended Wimbledon in matching pink outfits.
The host and acclaimed author, 54, who met his wife when she was a contestant on House Of Games, towered over his petite partner in a light pink suit.
He completed the outfit with a striped tie and shirt, brown shoes and his trademark black glasses.
Ingrid, 48, was similarly dressed to impress in a white top and pink trousers and accessorised with a beige belt.
She completed the look with comfortable-looking white shoes, adding a touch of glamour with her gold necklace and white, dotted earrings.
The pair were smiling widely, with Ingrid donning a pair of oversized sunglasses as they enjoyed the sporting event in temperatures of up to 32 degrees.
The writer and television presenter's appearance comes amid a happy time for him financially after his company's accounts doubled to a stunning £4.5million in the past year.
Records for Six Seven Entertainment - of which Osman is the sole director - saw its cash in bank and hand soar from £2,071,556 in 2024 to £4,451,074 in 2025.
Listed as producing 'artistic creation' on Companies House, the business was only incorporated in 2022 with £1.8million already in the bank.
It comes after a stellar year for the former Pointless host, which saw the build up to his series being adapted by Netflix, starring Dame Helen Mirren, Celia Imrie, Pierce Brosnan and Sir Ben Kingsley.
On its publication in 2020, The Thursday Murder Club became the only book to have sold more than one million copies in the same year as its release and the third-highest-selling hardback novel after Dan Brown's The Lost Symbol and JK Rowling's Harry Potter & The Deathly Hallows.
It was said to have been bought for a seven-figure sum by Viking Press after a 10-publisher bidding war.
It was followed by three sequels, The Man Who Died Twice in 2021, The Bullet That Missed in 2022 and The Last Devil to Die in 2023.
A fifth book - The Impossible Fortune - is set to be released on September 25.

The novels have turned into a runaway success story, selling more than 10 million copies globally.
The film rights to the book were soon snapped up by legendary director Steven Spielberg with his production company Amblin Entertainment beating off competition from 13 other studios.
He also started hosting The Rest is Entertainment alongside Marina Hyde in late 2023, with the hit show spilling the pair's insider knowledge of TV, films and pop culture.
In the last year, accounts revealed Osman had to pay £674,327 in tax and social security - with a further £74,512 going to other creditors. This is up from £155,754 in tax and £11,325 last year.
Netflix is set to release Thursday Murder Club on August 28, a year after Osman revealed that the film adaptation of his book will star Helen Mirren, Pierce Brosnan and Ben Kingsley.
Dame Helen, 79, will be playing Elizabeth Best, Sir Ben, 81, is portraying Ibrahim Arif and Pierce, 71, will taken on the role of Ron Ritchie.
