‘WE FOUND IT MORE AND MORE DIFFICULT TO LEAVE. I HOPE WE STAY HERE FOR THE REST OF OUR LIVES’ The family home of food writer Juana Pepa is one of those places that seem to exist outside time. Set in gentle countryside near Windsor in Berkshire and surrounded by corn fields, the ancient black-and-white timbered house is built on land once owned by Queen Edith, the consort of Edward the Confessor. You can imagine horses grazing peacefully there then, just as they do now, the only sound that of ducks splashing in the willow-fringed pond. Argentine-born Juana fell under the house’s spell the moment she saw it. “I hope we stay here for the rest of our lives,” she says. That’s praise indeed, coming from someone who has always…

Fairytale fantasy met high fashion when Celio Saab, son of the esteemed designer Elie Saab, married his beautiful bride, Zein Qutami, in a spectacular three-day celebration in the heart of Lebanon. More than 1,000 guests attended the nuptials on 18 July, including Nehmat Aoun, the first lady of Lebanon, the Spanish model Nieves Álvarez, the singer Balqees and the fashion icons Karen Wazen, Nathalie Fanj and Nour Arida. Elie Saab has previously designed gowns for Princess Beatrice, Princess Charlene of Monaco, Angelina Jolie and Beyoncé, and the 28-year-old Jordanian bride spoke of how honoured she was that he created her bridal look. “I trusted Mr Saab completely,” she tells HELLO! in our exclusive interview. Wearing fine jewels, including a Chopard tiara, and a custom-made embroidered silk wedding dress with sleeves…

‘IT’S NICE TO SEE GEORGE SMILING SO MUCH’ Leaning on a fence in a casual checked shirt and fleece bodywarmer, a friendship bracelet on his left wrist, Prince George looks the picture of fun in the great outdoors. The image, taken by the photographer Josh Shinner as part of a family photoshoot in Norfolk in April, was shared to mark the young royal’s 12th birthday on 22 July. It was followed by delightful behind-the-scenes footage of George larking around with his siblings, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis. Their fun-loving big brother is seen giggling as he lifts up Louis before the royal siblings walk hand in hand down a track, their wide smiles at full wattage. Filmed by the Prince and Princess of Wales’s social-media team in Norfolk, where the…

It’s 10.30am and Miranda Richardson has just returned home from a refreshing swim at The Serpentine in London’s Hyde Park – and she already feels as though she’s had a full day. “I’m sitting in my garden staring at my Koi fish surrounded by plants and all is good. It’s a gorgeous morning,” the award-winning actress says in this exclusive interview with HELLO! Miranda, who is best known for her roles in Blackadder, Empire of the Sun, The Crying Game and Sleepy Hollow, is training for a wild swimming challenge.

Along with some suspect fashion trends (visible thongs and ravaged eyebrows), the Nineties and Noughties gave a lot of us questionable eating habits. In an effort to emulate the bodies of Kate Moss (skinny) and then Gisele (skinny with big boobs), lots of us adopted nutritionally inadvisable diets (cabbage soup) and embraced a world of rice cakes, calorie counting, zero-sugar sodas and low-fat everything. Recently, I was on a health retreat with wellness influencers and journalists, women who have “glow with health” in their job description, and I was struck by how many of us were fighting against ingrained eating patterns, ones we have always believed are “good” and “slimming” but are actually unhealthy and can trigger weight gain. In an illuminating one-to-one session with the nutritionist Rhian Stephenson, founder…

CANOUAN, ST VINCENT & THE GRENADINES Those in the know have long whispered about Canouan. For years, this quietly cool Caribbean island, a 40-minute flight from Barbados, has drawn the likes of George Clooney and Robert Downey Jr with its coral-sand beaches, tropical highlands and hummingbirds. The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have been seen strolling the streets hand in hand, and a Soho Beach House has opened – a sure sign that a destination has “arrived”. The island is also home to a chi-chi marina, an 18-hole championship golf course designed by Jim Fazio and a Mandarin Oriental hotel. For adventurers, there are boat trips to Tobago Cays, where Pirates of the Caribbean was filmed. Or why not hop over to Mustique for a spicy margarita at the legendary…

Half a century ago, a unique disco group burst onto the music scene with a string of unforgettable hits. With such catchy songs as Rasputin, Daddy Cool and Rivers of Babylon, Boney M quickly became an iconic band of the Seventies. Founding member and energetic frontwoman Maizie Williams is still performing with the group, whose original stars included Bobby Farrell, Liz Mitchell and Marcia Barrett. Since their 1976 debut album Take the Heat off Me, Boney M has sold more than 150million records worldwide, and their disco legacy continues. Maizie, now 74, has not stopped commanding attention on stage and is still touring the world as Boney M celebrates its landmark golden anniversary. The singer, who lives in Buckinghamshire, was born on the Caribbean island of Montserrat before coming to…

She was a style icon throughout her lifetime. Now, to mark the centenary of her birth, the late Queen Elizabeth II’s wardrobe will feature in an extensive exhibition at Buckingham Palace of her most notable fashion statements. The star attractions include the gowns she wore for her wedding and coronation – both designed by Sir Norman Hartnell – and an exquisite silver lamé and tulle bridesmaid dress she wore in 1934, when she was eight years old, at the wedding of her uncle George, the Duke of Kent, to Princess Marina of Greece. The dress, which is on display for the first time, was designed by Edward Molyneux and is one of the earliest surviving pieces of couture from the late monarch’s childhood. There will also be a glimpse into…

“You will inevitably have the big combustion, because who doesn’t, in any relationship?” So says the Bridgerton actress Adjoa Andoh in this week’s episode of HELLO!’s Second Act podcast. On screen, her character, the formidable Lady Danbury, busies herself with society matchmaking and potential marriages. However, in real life, Adjoa, 62, who has been married to the author Howard Cunnell for nearly 25 years, is happy to share her secrets to making marriage work. “You have to have date nights,” she says. “They’re not another bit of furniture; they’re a person. Life is changing for them, too. You have to talk to each other, stay in conversation.” Time apart is important, too. “It’s important to understand that you’re married to a unique individual who interested you enough to commit to…

Given her rock’n’roll credentials, Charli XCX’s wedding was never going to be a traditional affair – and the Brat star made sure she defied plenty of conventions when she tied the knot with her boyfriend, The 1975’s George Daniel, last week. After the couple were declared husband and wife during a simple service held inside Hackney Town Hall, they celebrated with their closest friends and family at a raucous party that went on until the early hours. The day had begun in a more conventional fashion, with Charli – born Charlotte Aitchison – and George making their way to the venue separately. When they emerged on to the building’s front steps, the bride posed proudly for photographs in her £3,500 corseted off-the-shoulder Vivienne Westwood mini dress, which she teamed with…

THE KING AND QUEEN Their Majesties arrived in style at the Sandringham Flower Show in a carriage once owned by Queen Victoria. It was one of the couple’s final public appearances before their summer break, and Charles made time to enjoy the flowers on display. A day earlier, they visited the National Stud, of which the Queen is a patron, and The Jockey Club Rooms in Newmarket, Suffolk. PRINCESS ANNE The Princess Royal held an investiture ceremony at Windsor Castle, awarding honours to the actress Sarah Lancashire and the Olympic cyclists Katy Marchant, Dannielle Khan and Jennifer Holl. Happy Valley star Sarah, 60, received a CBE for services to drama.…

A SUMMER REVERIE This week, we’re dreaming of island escapes: our 12-page travel special focuses on lesser-known islands and some of the best destinations in the Caribbean. If you’re heading away, our fashion pages round up the latest high-summer drops, but if you’re staying at home, try sunkissed dishes from The Greek Islands Cookbook. Plus, Rosie Green discusses counterintuitive eating and the hotel heiress Lydia Forte tells us what luxury means to her.…

Lunch at Charlie’s in Mayfair is a treat: crisp linen tablecloth in a beautiful room, friendly…

CHRISTINA’S BURLESQUE TURN Despite a classic British downpour, nothing could rain on Christina Aguilera’s parade when she rocked the pink carpet at the Savoy Theatre for the gala night of Burlesque: The Musical last week. Wearing a distressed corset-style mini dress with sheer black tights, the Genie in a Bottle singer, 44, told HELLO!: “I can’t believe it was starting to rain, but this is so special. It’s a little more magical to be in London when it’s raining for the premiere.” Accompanied by Steven Antin, her fellow co-producer of the new West End show, she added: “It’s so exciting to be here and to be celebrating something that is our baby, that we’ve worked so hard on.” LINDSAY GETS FREAKY IN LA Nothing marks a comeback like a dazzling…

ROSIE HUNTINGTON-WHITELEY The model Rosie Huntington-Whiteley was the poster girl for a European summer during her recent family holiday to Majorca. Spending time with her fiancé, the actor Jason Statham, 57, and their children, Jack, eight, and Isabella, three, Rosie, 38, took a dip in the Mediterranean Sea. Posting a series of photographs featuring her family unwinding on an impressive yacht – and Jason showing off his diving skills – she captioned the images with just one word: “Familia.” SERENA WILLIAMS Serena Williams proved that her power moves don’t just lie on the tennis court as she relaxed on a yacht in a mystery location. Preparing for a big night, the 43-year-old retired sportswoman, who won 23 Grand Slams, wrote on Instagram: “Me and my girls… are out in the…

When Ozzy and Sharon Osbourne renewed their wedding vows in a romantic ceremony exclusively covered by HELLO! magazine in 2017, their love for each other was clear. “I want to laugh, have fun together and make memories with our kids and grandkids,” Sharon, who was also Ozzy’s manager, told us. “We work so much – we’re also going to enjoy our time together.” Sadly, that time came to an end last week when the legendary rock star died at the age of 76, with Sharon, his wife of 45 years, their children Kelly and Jack and his son Louis, from his first marriage, by his side. Poignantly, the Prince of Darkness had performed with his band, Black Sabbath, at a farewell concert less than three weeks earlier. Announcing the news,…

ELLEN DEGENERES Confirms Trump prompted UK move Ellen DeGeneres has confirmed that she and her wife, Portia de Rossi, moved to the UK because Donald Trump was re-elected as US president. Speaking at an event in Cheltenham, she said: “We got here the day before the election and woke up to lots of texts from our friends with crying emojis, and I was like: ‘He got in.’ And we’re like: ‘We’re staying here.’” The couple moved to the Cotswolds in 2024, after Ellen’s long-running talk show ended and she embarked on a “final comedy tour” of the US. They recently put one of their two homes in the area up for sale for £22.5m. EMILY ATACK Announces engagement to Alistair Garner Emily Atack has announced that she is engaged to…

More than just a comforting constant in our morning routine, coffee is the essential that few of us would relinquish. Aside from the ritualistic aspect of punctuating our day with a just-so double shot, extra-hot, oat macchiato, there’s the caffeine hit we’ve all come to rely on to mitigate late-night doom-scrolling or help us power through that to-do list. But despite the myriad of health benefits ascribed to our daily java, 40% of Gen Z are turning to functional drinks to shift their brains into a higher gear without the jitters. As a result, the global market for functional coffee is booming (the Duchess of Sussex was an early adopter, investing in Clevr Blends after falling in love with its adaptogen-laced lattes). “We’re seeing nootropics and adaptogens increasingly used to…

Whether you’re a born sailor or a die-hard city girl, there’s something irresistible about islands. The notion of arriving by boat, dropping anchor and stepping ashore on unfamiliar territory captures the very concept of adventure – and for A-listers looking to slip under the radar, few places offer more allure. But with around 900,000 islands scattered across the globe (of which only around 11,000 are inhabited), where to start? From wild volcanic outcrops to sun-scorched archipelagos, HELLO! has pinpointed the hottest islands that the in-crowd are setting their compasses to… HVAR, Croatia Known as the sunniest island in Croatia, Hvar is feted for its clear turquoise waters – some of the cleanest in Europe – making it one of the most idyllic swimming spots in the Adriatic Sea. Summer brings…
