But off the stage, among the crowds, there are plenty more high-profile celebrities milling about at the festival, which hasn't been held since the Covid-19 pandemic began.

Fresh from the announcement of the Game of Thrones spin-off show about Jon Snow, actor Kit Harington was spotted letting his hair down with fellow fans at the festival, alongside his wife Rose Leslie.

Anatomy of a Scandal star Sienna Miller and boyfriend Oli Green were also pictured among the crowds, as were Coldplay frontman Chris Martin with his partner, American actress Dakota Johnson.

Britain's royal family also made an appearance, as Princess Beatrice, wearing a casual khaki mini dress on Friday, attended with husband Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi by her side.

British actress Tilda Swinton has also been swanning about in sensible outfits, including knee-high riding boots and a brown bomber jacket, as unpredictable weather hit the festival.

Captain Marvel star Brie Larson and Normal People actress Daisy Edgar-Jones have also been spotted among the crowds in waterproofs or wellies.

Former One Direction stars Louis Tomlinson and Niall Horan have been seen chilling on the grass during the weekend, as has Harry Potter actress and newly-wed Bonnie Wright, who played Ginny Weasley in the beloved children's series.

English model Daisy Lowe was in wellies and casual black overalls with a white crop top, and another day sporting a tiger print dress, while Irish model Laura Whitmore, who presents hit British reality show Love Island, was spotted celebrating her belated hen party and watching Skin of Skunk Anansie fame perform.

Should late investors consider cryptocurrencies?

Wealth managers recommend late investors to have a balanced portfolio that typically includes traditional assets such as cash, government and corporate bonds, equities, commodities and commercial property.

They do not usually recommend investing in Bitcoin or other cryptocurrencies due to the risk and volatility associated with them.

“It has produced eye-watering returns for some, whereas others have lost substantially as this has all depended purely on timing and when the buy-in was. If someone still has about 20 to 25 years until retirement, there isn’t any need to take such risks,” Rupert Connor of Abacus Financial Consultant says.

He adds that if a person is interested in owning a business or growing a property portfolio to increase their retirement income, this can be encouraged provided they keep in mind the overall risk profile of these assets.
