Queen Camilla was joined by culinary royalty today as both Her Majesty and Mary Berry attended the Royal Box at Wimbledon.
Dressed in Wimbledon whites, Camilla, 75, looked elegant in a knee-length dress with navy piping. The royal, 75, finished the look with a stylish straw clutch bag and a cream shawl, clearly mindful of the changeable Wimbledon weather.
Meanwhile Mary, 88, who is cherished by amateur bakers up and down the country, opted for a summery turquoise dress with flowing sleeves.
Queen Camilla had a front row seat to the action on Centre Court within the Royal Boxas she sat next to her sister Annabel Elliot – however Mary was seated just one row behind her, proving that she is also a very important guest at the All England Club.
SW19 was awash with royalty today as keen sports fans Zara Tindall and her husband Mike also attended to catch the action – but unlike the Queen, they sat in the stands with other tennis fans.

Zara looked chic as ever in a £250 pinstripe shirt dress with a belted waist from ME + EM, tan espadrille wedges from Saint Laurent costing £740, a white blazer and a trilby hat, while Mike cut a sharp look in a light blue blazer.
The couple, who are both successful sportspeople, were pictured entering the All England club this afternoon, while Zara’s brother Peter Phillips, was spotted watching Ons Jabeur take on Elena Rybakina.
Looking smart in a dark suit with a red tie, he was joined by his girlfriend Lindsay Wallace and beamed as things heated up on the court.
And also in the stands, although not in the Royal Box, were Princess Kate’s sister Pippa Middleton and her husband James Matthews.
Accompanied by AELTC chairman, Ian Hewitt, as she arrived Queen Camilla greeted ball boys and girls, and even enjoyed a meeting one of the Championships’ search dogs.
Meeting one of the ball girls, the Queen asked if she was enjoying her first tournament, to which she replied: ‘Very much so.’
The Queen then joked: ‘You have to be very agile. I remember doing it 100 years ago… it’s quite difficult to get it right.’
She then met a ball boy, named Sean, and commented that he and his colleagues had to be ‘very fit’ to do their job.
Camilla, who is attending the tennis solo and for the first time with her new title, also met detection dog handler Mark Mills and his search dog Flo, reaching down to give the Labrador a friendly pet.
