Bec Hewitt’s deep orange tan has caused a social media storm, with hundreds of tennis fans tweeting about her “tandoori” skin tone.

Bec turned out to watch her husband Lleyton’s first round Australian Open match in Melbourne yesterday.

But while tennis fans tuned in to watch the action on court, they were soon distracted by Bec’s apparent “spray tan fail” and took to social media to comment.

“Wow, Bec Hewitt looks like she stuck her head in a bag of Twisties,” one particularly unkind viewer wrote, while another added: “She looks like an Oompa Loompa with that orange tan!”

“Bec Hewitt still looks like a babe,” a more supportive fan added. “That tan though!”

In Bec’s defence, she has been naturally bronzed since she was a teenager, and her tan has only deepened since she moved to The Bahamas in 2009.

Bec’s tan looked even more orange next to her white-blonde hair.

Her over-bronzed look was not a hit among tennis fans.
