During the Wimbledon heatwave, a specific handheld fan by Shark has emerged as the accessory of choice among celebrities and attendees alike. The Shark FlexBreeze fan, known for its powerful airflow and portability, has been spotted courtside, helping fans and stars stay cool under the scorching sun.

It features a flexible neck that can be wrapped around objects or stood on a desk, making it versatile for outdoor events. According to SharkNinja, the fan's brushless motor delivers consistent airflow, and it comes with a remote control for easy adjustment.
Celebrities including actors and musicians have been seen carrying the fan at Wimbledon, as temperatures soared above 30°C. The device has become a social media talking point, with many praising its effectiveness in the heat.
