The couple are currently battling their own respective health battles at the same time. In 2023, Hoy, 50,was diagnosed with stage four prostate cancerand has been battling it ever since. A year later, Hoy revealedSarra had also been battling multiple sclerosis (MS)but chose to keep her diagnosis a secret so they could focus on his battle. The pair have been doing their best to live their lives without their conditions being a burden. The latest example of them doing so was at SW19 for this afternoon's tennis. Hoy sported a trim light grey suit complete with a crisp white shirt and a dark coloured tie. Lady Sarra sported a black dress complete with a brown belt and gold buckle. In the Royal Box, they also joined the likes of fellow gold medal Olympians Sir Ben Ainslie, IOC president Kirst Coventry, England midfielder Phil Foden and WalesRugby Leaguehero Jonathan Jiffy Davies. It's not the Hoys' first time at Wimbledon. He received a standing ovation from the spectators at Centre Court when he attended in 2024, not long after his diagnosis was revealed. It proved to be another emotional moment over the course of a challenging few years for him and their family. Hoy is about to embark on another huge charity bike ride, two years after revealing his cancer had spread to his bones. Despite the difficulty, he told the Press Association he is coping just fine and is determined to not allow the cancer to cause further misery. After promoting the 'Tour de 4' race he is doing, which takes place in Glasgow in September, he said: "I'm doing fine, thanks. The Tour de 4 is the main focus for me the next few months. "He also added: "It's trying to demonstrate, rather than just talking about it. That all these people who are in a similar situation to me - living with stage four cancer - that there's plenty of life left in us. "We're determined to make the most of it, and not have cancer define who you are. You don't have to be facing a stage four cancer diagnosis to have tough moments.
