Other celebrity guests included ITV news anchor Tom Bradby and his jewelry designer wife, Claudia, as well as former Byker Grove star -- and James Middleton's girlfriend -- Donna Air, who wore a long, flowing pale yellow dress and matching pillbox hat.

This year will be the first year since Federer turned pro in 1998 that he will not play a tour event on clay. The tennis star, who has 18 Grand Slam titles, said he will instead focus on grass-court and hardcourt events coming up, like Wimbledon and the United States Open.
