Hugh Grant’s Royal Box Nap Goes Viral
Hugh Grant didn’t expect to become the star of Wimbledon 2025 for dozing off, but here we are. One minute he’s just another celeb in the Royal Box. Next, he’s a meme for catching z’s behind Queen Camilla.
Hugh showed up for the men’s singles quarter-final on July 9 with his wife Anna Elisabet Eberstein. They had prime seats. Front row of the Royal Box. Perfect view of Novak Djokovic battling Flavio Cobolli. But somewhere between Djokovic’s serves and Cobolli’s returns, Hugh’s eyelids just gave up.
The best part? He had sunglasses on. Didn’t help much. Cameras still caught him nodding off. Wimbledon’s Instagram even posted him looking wide awake earlier. By the time Djokovic got deep into the tie break, Hugh was deep into a nap.
Why Did People React So Fast?
It’s Wimbledon. People wait in line all night to get a ticket. Some queue at 3am just for a chance to sit on the grass. So when fans saw Hugh snoozing in the Royal Box, they didn’t hold back.
One X user called it rude. Said folks would give anything for that seat and he slept right through the action. Some agreed. Some laughed it off. BBC Sport even posted, “It’s all got a bit too much for Hugh Grant” with a big sleepy emoji.
He wasn’t alone in the star zone either. Right in front of him sat Queen Camilla. She chatted with Djokovic before the match. Nearby were David Beckham, Jessica Alba, Olivia Rodrigo, John Cena, and Glen Powell. If Hugh was tired, at least he had famous company to see him snooze.
Who Else Was Spotted Courtside?
It’s not just Hugh getting camera time. Andrew Garfield and Monica Barbaro turned heads too. They showed up on July 6, dressed head to toe in white Ralph Lauren. Wimbledon whites, hand-in-hand, classic courtside couple look.
Even with Hugh’s nap, Wimbledon 2025 rolls on. Matches stream live in the US on ESPN, ESPN2, Tennis Channel and ABC. Or you can watch on ESPN+ or Hulu + Live TV.
The big takeaway? Don’t underestimate tennis fatigue. Even Hugh Grant can’t resist a mid-match nap if the vibe’s right and the sun’s warm.
