Hugh Grant, 64, packs on PDA with leggy wife Anna Eberstein, 41, as couple attends football match at Sinigaglia Stadium in Italy

Hugh Grant cut a dapper figure as he was joined by his stunning wife Anna Eberstein to watch a football match at Giuseppe Sinigaglia Stadium in Como, Italy, on Saturday.

The film star, 64, was snapped holding hands with the Swedish TV producer, 41, as they made a stylish entrance ahead of the game between Como 1907 and Parma.

The couple appeared in high spirits, flashing a cheerful bin on their way in, as Anna risked to outshine the famous actor in her chic ensemble.

Anna, who was born and raised in Sweden but relocated in London after marrying Hugh in 2018, rocked a red and blue checked mini skirt.

Putting on a leggy display, she also donned glossy tights and black heel boots – enhancing her lithe physique.

The beauty added an elegant silky navy shirt, while Hugh opted for a pistachio blazer jacket and white shirt, finishing with black trousers.

The lovebirds shares son John Mungo, born in 2012, a daughter, born in 2015 and another daughter born in 2018 – although the names of the two daughters have not been made public.

After touching down in the classy Italian city, the actor and Anna enjoyed the football match in the seats – rubbing shoulders with the likes of acting legend Andrew Garfield and French former footballer Raphael Varane.

The Love Actually star was seen having an engaging conversation with the football star, 31, throughout the game.

His outing comes after the actor has revealed he was ‘crammed into’ the upcoming Bridget Jones film, after his character was seemingly killed off.

During an appearance on The Graham Norton Show earlier this month, Hugh spoke about his new horror movie Heretic, and discussed his parents’ views of his acting career. 

When discussing his role in the fourth Bridget Jones movie, titled Mad About The Boy, he said: ‘It is a good and moving script – it is extremely funny but very sad.’ 

He added: ‘There was no obvious role for me, but I was crammed in. So we didn’t have a 60-year-old Daniel Clever wandering around looking at young girls I made up a good interim story for him.’

During the show, he also discussed his parents’ views of his acting career and admitted they were ‘not at all supportive’ in the beginning.

He revealed: ‘They were not at all supportive. My mother was a churchgoer and wanted me to be the Archbishop of Canterbury! In their world showbusiness meant nothing.’

‘I remember when Four Weddings and a Funeral came out my mother went to a dinner party with likeminded people and when asked about her two sons she said “One is an investment banker and the other is a film star.”‘ 

He added: ‘Another guest said, “How very interesting, which bank?” That’s the world I grew up in.’ 

The actor is best known for starring in romcoms such as Notting Hill, Love Actually, and Four Weddings and a Funeral.

However, with his new spine-chilling psychological horror movie, he will be reinventing himself from Hollywood heartthrob to ‘slimy villain’. 

Titled Heretic, the movie – set to be released on November 15 – is written and directed by Scott Beck and Bryan Woods, the writers behind John Krasinski’s 2018 post-apocalyptic horror A Quiet Place. 

Dubbed his creepiest role to date, the British actor plays a man who kidnaps a pair of young, female Mormon missionaries, before subjecting them to a terrifying series of tests and games. 

While discussing his new movie, Hugh said: ‘I decided to play him as a trendy academic.’

‘The film goes darker and darker so I thought everything that is creepy would be doubly creepy if I made jokes at the same time.’

He added: ‘I didn’t want him to be the moustache twirling baddie, so I prepared by reading a lot about serial killers and cult leaders and even borrowed their look.’ 

His appearance on the show comes after he revealed that he only agreed to take part in the fourth Bridget Jones movie after rewriting his part.

The actor played love rat Daniel Cleaver in the first two films of the franchise, starring opposite Renee Zellweger as the clumsy and hapless romantic Bridget Jones, and Colin Firth as buttoned-up lawyer Mark Darcy.

However, he did not reprise his role in the last film, 2016’s Bridget Jones’s Baby, where his character appeared to be killed off, and Bridget became pregnant.

The movie instead saw billionaire US love guru Jack Qwant, played by Patrick Dempsey, compete for Bridget against Mark.

Hugh told Vanity Fair: ‘I really couldn’t fit my character in – he just didn’t belong, so I stepped aside.’

Revealing that he ‘loved the script’ for the latest instalment, he admitted ‘it made me cry,’ but again, there was no space for his character.

Due to the strength of author Helen Fielding’s work Bridget Jones: Mad About The Boy, which sees Bridget as a widow in her 50s with two children following Mark’s death some years earlier – and him writing some scenes – he decided to return.

Hugh explained: ‘It’s absolutely the best (book) and I think it’s very funny and very, very moving. I’m not in a lot, I did a week’s work, that’s it… But when you see the film, you’ll be very moved.’ 

Production company, Working Title, confirmed last month that the movie will hit cinemas on Valentine’s Day next year and said that filming had finally wrapped.
