Viral Video: Hugh Grant found asleep at Wimbledon 2025; memes and jokes galore, ‘When you are old and rich…’

Hugh Grant was seen dozing off during the Wimbledon 2025 quarterfinal match between Novak Djokovic and Flavio Cobolli.

Grant was sitting in the Royal Box beside his wife, Anna Eberstein. Wearing sunglasses, the Notting Hill actor was caught on camera with his head slumped to one side, hands resting in his lap.

The clip quickly went viral, with social media users commenting on how sleepy he looked. Another photo showed the 64-year-old leaning to his right, just behind Queen Camilla and her sister.

However, in another moment, Grant appeared fully awake and chatting with the royals. Other celebrities like Cate Blanchett, Glen Powell and Joe Alwyn also attended the match. Nevertheless, it was Hugh Grant’s nap that caught attention.
