The beauty added inches to her frame in a pair of stylish stilettos and toted her belongings in a coordinated small handbag. 

She added a pop of colour to the evening ensemble with a red manicure and accessorised with a pair of gold hoop earrings. 

The couple were seen posing with Imran Amed and singer Rita Ora before sitting down for a lavish meal. 

During the night, the A-listers celebrated Maria Sharapova famous victory on the Centre Court in 2004.

Maria first rocketed to fame when she beat top seed and defending champion Serena Williams at Wimbledon to claim her first Grand Slam at the age of just 17.

The dinner was even given a royal touch, with the arrival of Princess Beatrice and her husband Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi.

During her storied time on court, Maria became the first Russian player to complete the career Grand Slam after wins in Melbourne, New York, Paris and London and the third-youngest woman to triumph at Wimbledon.

She retired from playing tennis four years ago after battling with injuries, but had the final years of her time in the sport marred by a failed drugs test.

A 2016 test saw her suspended for two years after she was found to have ingested meldonium, a substance which had been banned at the start of that year, ahead of the Australian Open.

Her suspension was later reduced to 15 months after she was found to have taken the drug as per her doctor’s advice.

Her last appearance as a player at Wimbledon came in 2010 when Maria retired from her first round contest against Pauline Parmentier with an injury. 

It comes after Idris playfully kissed wife Sabrina at the 55th annual NAACP Image Awards at the Shrine Auditorium and Expo Hall in Los Angeles earlier this year.

The couple looked more loved up than ever as they presented an award together.

Idris seemed in good spirits as he couldn’t keep his hands off his glamorous wife as he snuggled up to her on stage.

The Luther star looked handsome in a gorgeous black suit that he paired with a black dress shirt and matching tie. Meanwhile Sabrina turned heads in a brown cowl neck gown that hugged her amazing figure.

The couple presented Fantasia Barrino with the Outstanding Actress in a Motion Picture award for The Color Purple award.
