Having fun? Hannah joined a slew of stars who descended on SW19 for Wimbledon’s so-called ‘Mid-Saturday’, which was beset by rain and thunder
Sitting next to Eurovision runner-up Sam, Hannah couldn’t hide her reactions as she watched the drama unfold in Center Court.
At one point, the Emmy winner was left in hysterics by one of Sam’s pranks as they enjoyed the day of sporting action together.
Matches were interrupted for hours on the Wimbledon courts and tennis fans were forced to take cover under umbrellas or huddle in raincoats. A few brave fans remained in their seats.
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.
The British number one plays defending champion Elena Rybakina on Center Court on Saturday afternoon in the last game on Center Court.
