Katherine Jenkins was reunited with David Beckham at Wimbledon on Monday, seven years after their OBE row.
The singer, 44, looked stylish as she joined husband Andrew Levitas at All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club in south-west London before settling into her seat in the Royal Box.
For the outing, she was placed directly behind David but the pair were not pictured interacting.
The footballer, 49, was alleged to have slammed Katherine in a series of leaked emails published in February 2017, including one to his PR manager.
One was alleged to have said: ‘Katherine Jenkins OBE for what? Singing at the rugby and going to see the troops plus taking coke. F****** joke.’

The opera star was awarded an OBE in 2014, for services to various charities and her journeying to war zones to entertain the troops.
The hacked emails also suggested allegations surrounding his stance in the Scottish referendum and investing in loss-making companies to reduce his tax bill.
David’s representatives dismissed the claims, stating that the emails had been ‘hacked and doctored’ from a private account.
A spokesperson said: ‘This story is based on outdated material taken out of context from hacked and doctored private emails from a third party server and gives a deliberately inaccurate picture.’
Katherine and David had allegedly been at odds years earlier, when she took to Twitter in 2012 to deny she had had an affair with him, a decision which reportedly left the England star utterly furious.
In 2018, Katherine claimed she was still waiting for an apology from the sports star.
Speaking about the shock comments David made towards her, Katherine admitted she has no reason to feel anything but proud of her achievements.
She explained: ‘You’re just minding your own business and you get caught up in this massive storm. You just think, ”Aw, I wasn’t doing anything”. To get caught up in that wasn’t pleasant. I don’t know why, again, that was aimed at me.’
‘I also don’t feel the need to defend this, by the way. I know what I’ve done and when I got the OBE it was given to me for music, and for charity’.
When asked whether she was angry with David for his alleged comments, Katherine added: ‘It’s obviously disappointing. I’ve never heard anything from them about it.’

Despite their history, Katherine and David looked in good spirits at Wimbledon.
Katherine cut a stylish figure as she paired a £495 Edeline Lee top with matching £715.00 trousers, adding a pop of colour with purple £695 Manolo Blahnik shoes.
Meanwhile, David arrived at the tennis contest dressed in a bespoke Boss beige, full canvas, single-breasted suit which he matched with a blue, cotton shirt.
He and his mother Sandra had been invited to sit in the Royal Box to watch British star Emma Radacanu play her first game in two years at the tournament when she takes on Russian wildcard Ekaterina Alexandrova.
Later he will watch Spanish superstar Carlos Alcaraz take on qualifier Mark Lajal, the World 262.
A friend of Beckham’s told MailOnline: ‘David and his mum look forward to their days out at Wimbledon, they try to go every year.
‘It’s such a treat for the first day to see Emma Radacanu who David is a huge fan of, as well as Alcaraz.
‘David is so close to Sandra, they have the most special relationship and he always gets excited about this day but this year it is the first of many celebrations of the week.
‘David and Victoria have got some really touching things lined up for this week, it is going to be one of the most amazing of their lives.’

They weren’t the only VIPs present as the the likes of David Attenborough, Jamie Cullum, Katherine Jenkins and Alexander Armstrong were also present.
It was revealed last month that David is one step closer to becoming a ‘Sir’ after charming King Charles with his charity work.
And so seemed to be taking no time asking for tips on how to hold the title as he was spotted hobnobbing with national treasure David.
David’s outing came just weeks after he won official recognition from the King by becoming an ambassador for his charity.
As his appointment was announced, the former England captain said he was ‘excited’ to have been chosen for the prestigious role at the King’s Foundation, following a meeting with the King at his beloved Highgrove Estate.
He is the first ambassador to be named by the charity since Charles was crowned, and the move is certain to increase speculation that Beckham’s long-held dream of a knighthood could finally become reality.
Speaking about his new role, David said: ‘I’m excited to be working with the King’s Foundation and to have the opportunity to help raise awareness of the charity’s work.
‘I’ve always been keen to help young people to expand their horizons and I’m particularly looking forward to supporting the foundation’s education programmes and its efforts to ensure young people have greater access to nature.’
The foundation, established in 1986 when Charles was Prince of Wales, is run from Dumfries House in Scotland. It aims to support ‘sustainable communities’ and spearheads education courses for young people, often with a focus on rural skills.
As ambassador, David will promote awareness of the charity by supporting campaigns and attending events, including the upcoming King’s Foundation Awards.
