Pregnant Sophie Habboo puts on a leggy display in a floral mini dress as she joins husband Jamie Laing at Wimbledon

BBG News

On Friday during the men’s singles semifinals on Day 12 of Wimbledon, Sophie Habboo, who is pregnant, shone brilliantly as she attended with her husband Jamie Laing and caught everyone’s eye.

As a devoted follower, I’d like to share that the ex-star of Made In Chelsea, at 30 years old, showcased her long legs in a vibrant floral mini dress. She accentuated her slender figure with a pair of white, pointed heels. To complete her look, she opted for minimal accessories.

Meanwhile, Jamie, 36, looked effortlessly stylish in a simple T-shirt and cream trousers combo. 

Once more, it appears we’re in for a hot day, as temperatures are projected to peak at around 89 degrees Fahrenheit or 32 degrees Celsius during the almost-final matches of the men’s singles tournament.

In a little while, the defending champ Carlos Alcaraz, current No. 1 Jannik Sinner, veteran Novak Djokovic with his seven titles, and American player Taylor Fritz will step onto Center Court, forming this tournament’s final four.

On Sunday, we might see a reenactment of last year’s final between Alcaraz and Djokovic. Today, they will each play separate matches, with the current champion taking on an American opponent, while Djokovic faces off against Sinner.

On Center Court yesterday, top-ranked player Aryna Sabalenka faced and was defeated by 13th-seeded American Amanda Anisimova. Anisimova advanced to compete in this weekend’s final.

Meanwhile Iga Świątek, who is No.8 seed, triumphed against unseeded Belinda Bencic. 

Sabalenka admitted that she has a ‘hate relationship’ with Wimbledon following the loss.

When queried on whether her match against the American ace in the 6-4, 4-6, 6-4 setback could aid her in becoming a more formidable Wimbledon titlist in the future, Sabalenka candidly admitted to the challenges she is currently grappling with following the defeat.

Sabalenka acknowledged it’s hard to contemplate the situation, as you mentioned, but she sincerely hopes for the best. She has unfortunately lost three semifinals, all of which were challenging encounters.

In 2022, I was barred from participating due to my nationality, and later, I suffered an injury. Currently, my feelings towards Wimbledon are quite adversarial, but I deeply yearn for the day when I can transform that animosity into affection.

Absolutely, should I ever manage to claim victory, I will undoubtedly reflect on these difficult defeats and acknowledge that I’ve persevered nonetheless.

‘Yeah, now it’s tough, but I never give up, and I’m going to come back stronger, for sure.’

After Sophie and Jamie confessed that they had breached royal protocol, which cast a shadow over their encounter with King Charles, he was seen laughing at them during a private event.

Previously on Made In Chelsea, the stars had a royal audience with His Majesty at Buckingham Palace in late June. The next day, they attended the yearly King’s Trust TKMaxx & Homesense Awards.

At the special gathering, Sophie’s initial mistake led to another photo showing King Charles seemingly chuckling as he greeted a line of attendees, with the couple being the focus.

In a jovial tone, Jamie, aged 36, reminisced about an incident on their Nearly Parents podcast, where he humorously recounted how his expectant wife inadvertently broke royal protocol by repeatedly extending her hand in an unsuccessful attempt to greet the Monarch.

When encountering the King, you should incline your head or curtsey, followed by extending your hand to address him as ‘Sir’. Avoid raising your hand for a handshake until he extends his own first.

He continually gazed at Sophie, and the moment he moved toward her, Sophie lifted her hand, similar to this gesture, and afterward, he turned away, causing her to lower her hand once more.

She repeated the action around three to four occasions, following which he glanced at her once more, displaying politeness as custom dictates. The appropriate response is to wait for him to raise his hand first.

In a moment of embarrassment, caught on camera by Netflix, I found myself regretting my actions. You see, I let the chatter around me drown out my intuition, mistaking it for mere background noise. I felt as if I was about to miss an opportunity that I couldn’t afford to ignore.

In that instant, I pondered, “Is he gazing at me? Is it time for me to bow or curtsey? Am I about to falter?” And indeed, I felt a tremor in my knees.

Laughing heartily, Jamie showed how Sophie automatically extended her hand towards the King, waiting for him while moving along a row that also featured cosmetics entrepreneur Charlotte Tilbury, actor George Clooney, and his spouse Amal.

Previously, when they met, he faced Sophie, who extended her hand without pulling it back, instead choosing to keep it there. He shared this detail.

She kept the object still without moving it, only letting go when he arrived and shook her hand. In essence, she was merely keeping it steady.

During their visit to the Palace, they ignited a stir on social media by seemingly making light of the controversial twerking video involving Meghan Markle and Prince Harry during their pregnancy.

They garnered surprised glances by playfully capturing their own footage on the Grand Staircase within the Palace, a place once walked by Monarchs, Heirs, and Nobility.

A married pair recorded themselves reenacting the well-known “Baby Bump” dance originally performed by Harry and Meghan, right within the grand palace grounds.

At the King’s Trust event held at Buckingham Palace, the lighthearted video was considered a violation of the rules since attendees had been instructed not to take photographs or record videos within the palace.

In my latest blog post, I share an interesting tale: “Apparently, I was told it wasn’t permissible to shoot inside Buckingham Palace.

In that instance, which transgressed the usual procedure and potentially triggered a crisis, the court officials luckily saw the humor in it instead.

As an over-the-moon fan, I couldn’t help but notice when ‘The Royal Family’ responded to my post on their official Instagram account, saying, “We catch your vibe!” with a pair of knowing eyes and a wink emojis.

In a fitting manner, The King’s Trust added a humorous remark to the discussion: ‘Everyone here is exceptionally polite.’
