Lily Becker avoided a nasty run-in with ex-husband Boris on Thursday, as the former couple led the star-studded arrivals for day four of the Wimbledon Tennis Championships.
The model, 43, exuded elegance in a blue spotted jumpsuit as she arrived for another day at the SW19 grounds, with Boris arriving separately in a royal blue suit amid claims the couple are in the ‘final stages’ of their bitter divorce.
Boris’ outing came just a day after he made his first public appearance with new girlfriend British model Layla Powell, 31, four months after the couple were first spotted together.

Boris’ outing comes amid reports he is in the ‘final stages’ of divorcing Lilly after the couple announced their split last year.
In December, Lilly reflected on the past year after parting ways from her husband of nine years during an interview with Günther Jauch on Germany’s RTL.
The brunette admitted the couple will never rekindle their relationship. She insisted: ‘It’s really over between us. 2018 was the worst time of my 42 years. He so grossly disappointed me. What makes it so bad is that everything is happening in public now. But I married a public man, maybe it’s part of it.’
‘Unfortunately, [a reunion wouldn’t] not work anymore. Too much has happened. I do not want to, he does not, and that’s fine. It’s really over between us.
‘The most important thing is that the future of our son Amadeus is well arranged. It’s not about Boris or me. It concerns the joint custody. He can see his son whenever he wants. Amadeus loves his father, and he loves him.’
Boris and Lilly, who were married for nine years, confirmed their breakup via a German lawyer last year, in a statement given to Bild newspaper.
Lawyer Christian-Oliver Moser said: ‘The decision after a 13-year-long relationship and nine years of marriage wasn’t an easy one.’
