Björn and his partner Christina Sas were in the Royal Box on Centre Court at the Wimbledon tennis championships for the afternoon matches.
They watched the Quarter-Final Ladies Singles match between Elena Rybakina (Kazakhstan) and Elina Svitolina (Ukraine) (Rybakina won 6-3, 6-2) and then the Mixed Doubles match between Jan Zielinski (Poland) and Su-Wei Hsieh (Taiwan) vs. Joe Salisbry (UK) and Heather Watson (UK) (Zielinski and Hsieh won 7-6, 6-4).
You could see Christina and Björn in several distance shots sitting in the third row behind Queen Camilla, ex UK politician William Hague and actor Richard E Grant at the end of games but they were all fleeting. Poirot actor David Suchet was also sitting in the row in front of Björn and The Understones singer and now environmental campaigner, Feargal Sharkey, was sitting next to Christina.
