Gemma Owen, Alex Scott and Lucy Mecklenburgh were among the stars to brave Saturday’s thunderstorms heading into day six of the Wimbledon championship.
The former Love Island star, 20, looked chic in a white pleated midi dress as she joined her father Michael at the sporting event’s famous ‘Middle Saturday’.
Gemma paired her stylish white dress with a matching navy blue striped jumper tied around her neck as she posed for snaps before watching the tennis.
Her father was smartly dressed in a navy blue blazer and gray chino pants as he posed next to his daughter.
Gemma rose to prominence after performing on Love Island in 2022 and signed a six-figure deal with PrettyLittleThing.

Here she is! Lucy Mecklenburgh opted for a stylish white crochet midi dress and a lilac leather handbag as she headed to the action on Center Court
The Love Island runner-up was chosen by the online retail giant after a series of meetings in Manchester with founder Umar Kamani, 34, and his close team.
Gemma is the first UK brand ambassador for PrettyLittleThing since they signed Love Island 2019 runner-up Molly-Mae, who is estimated to be worth an eye-watering £6 million.
Meanwhile, Alex looked glamorous in a striking brown halterneck dress and a matching cream handbag as she arrived at the All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club.
The former England footballer pulled her braided locks into a loose ponytail as she posed for snaps in her stylish look.
Former TOWIE star Lucy looked sophisticated in a pretty white midi dress with ruffles, a crochet effect and adorable cap sleeves.
She paired her outfit with strapped white heels and a lilac handbag when she arrived at the tennis club with her fiancé Ryan Thomas.
Ted Lasso star Hannah Waddingham was perfectly dressed for summer in a gorgeous white lace dress with matching pointy heels as she made her arrival.
The actress, who delighted fans with her Eurovision hosting stint in May, swept back her blonde locks with a pretty printed headband.
Matches have been suspended on Wimbledon courts and tennis fans have been forced to shelter under umbrellas or huddle in raincoats. A few brave fans remained in their seats.
The wet weather also dampened spirits during the third Ashes Test at Headingley.
The game is well balanced with Australia leading with 142 runs in their second innings, four wickets down after a flurry from England last night.
The covers had been off in the morning, but were back on when the rain returned.
It comes after a disappointing day for the Brits at Wimbledon on Friday, where Andy Murray crashed out of the tournament after a two-day thriller.
Momentum was firmly on the Briton’s side, who led by two sets to one before the 11pm curfew on Thursday night, but the break of the day gave Tsitsipas another run on the 36-year-old.
Murray was also the victim of a foul call at a crucial moment in the fourth set, which he did not want to challenge.
Tsitsipas held onto his serve and managed to push the Briton to a tiebreak, which the Greek won 7-3.
Murray’s defeat on Center Court was one of a spate of British losses that saw all three men’s singles contenders knocked out of the competition in just over half an hour.
Cameron Norrie was outclassed by American prospect Christopher Eubanks, fresh off the back of his first-ever grass court tournament victory in Mallorca, and Liam Broady was felled in four sets by No. 26 Denis Shapovalov.
Broady had played a grueling five-set thriller against number four seed Casper Ruud the day before, but the wild card was unable to extend his fairytale run despite a compelling challenge from the Canadian player.
British hopes will now focus solely on Katie Boulter in the singles match.
