ALLOW ME TO START this column by saying: I think therapy is a very good thing. Nah: actually, scratch that. I think good therapy is a very good thing. Bad therapy is awful; meh therapy is a waste of everyone’s time and money. But good therapy – good therapy is great. I should know. I’ve had it. Seven years of the good stuff, which – didn’t end, so much as go on Covid hiatus, around a year ago, on the proviso that I could start up again if I needed to. Will I? Dunno. I began therapy because I was in pain. My shrink – a straight-up genius – and I worked hard to make sure that wasn’t the case any more; slowly, I got… not fixed, exactly; is anyone,…

WHEN JODIE TURNER-SMITH left the world of finance to become an actor, international success was far from a given. But now, as she takes the lead in Channel 5’s Anne Boleyn, it’s clear that it was worth the risk. Not only has she received critical acclaim for her performance, she is also taking her place among Hollywood royalty. Having married Dawsons Creek actor Joshua Jackson – who she recently admitted was her teen crush – in 2019, Jodie has made a name for herself with films like Queen & Slim and last month’s Without Remorse. But the chance to play one of history’s most famous women meant a return to Britain was irresistible. ‘Anne had this confidence,’ Jodie told Grazia as we sat down with her during a break from…

WORDS AND SHOPPING: CHARLOTTE PAVITT PHOTOS: INSTAGRAM/HAILEY BIEBER TERRYCLOTH, ONCE the stuff of 1970S poolside attire, is having a resurgence and is set to dominate our summer wardrobes. After all, it is the unsung hero of warm weather wardrobing, conjuring up thoughts of beach towels and robes. Which is perhaps why, this season, the summer collections are full of it, from upbeat dresses and rompers to sandals and bags. Australian label Terry, launched by close friends Lucy Halfpenny and Brigette Clarke, is largely behind the revival, with its relaxed, breezy terry playsuits and button-down shirt and shorts co-ords emerging as early summer hits among editors and buyers. And they’re not the only Aussies banking on the quick-drying trend. Zimmermann recently added towelling to its line of beachwear, while Kendall Jenner…

IN A CAREER that has spanned decades, Kate Winslet’s most famous role is that of Rose in 1997’s Titanic. But last month saw this iconic character finally challenged in the talkability stakes, when Kate turned to the small screen in Mare Of Easttown, in which she plays a small-town detective worn down by a turbulent home life. The seven-part drama has twists, turns and gut-punching shocks, held together by the actor’s most powerful performance in years. The Times has called her ‘tremendous’; The Guardian ‘a triumph’. Social media is awash with calls for Kate to receive every award going. While in may ways it’s no surprise that Kate is capable of such a star turn, what is a revelation is how, despite it all, she’s kept hold of a very…

Flexibility is the greatest friendship gift of all I WAS CHATTING to my friend Edie the other day and she was saying how her eating habits have changed. She used to be a vegetarian. ‘Now I eat some white meat but not much fish,’ she said. ‘Then red meat once a month, if I can get it from the place I like. Then sometimes I have oat milk in my coffee and sometimes regular milk. And lots of cheese when it’s cold. I’m a flexitarian.’ A flexitarian! I love it. Surely that just means getting what you want? Finally, a regime I can invest in! And as a general life manifesto, flexibility is becoming more of a necessity (if that isn’t a paradox). Flexible working is the future. Being more…

In their minidresses and trouser suits, modern brides no longer feel confined to classics. This unpredictable, defiantly untraditional attitude is also translating to big day jewellery. Because while a solitaire diamond always has fairy-tale charm, sculptural earrings, tough-luxe bangles and subtly twisted rings are equally deserving of an ‘I do’ now. Take inspiration from Tasaki, which gives pearls a quietly subversive spin via modern, unexpected shapes. Or why not opt for a watch? After all, wouldn’t the most unconventional move of all be to arrive perfectly on time ? WORDS: LAURA ANTONIA JORDAN. SHOPPING: MOLLY HAYLOR FOR ALL TIME…

Call in the experts early. Builders and engineers can help you understand what you’re looking at before you dive into a project and most come round free of charge. They can also give you a rough estimate so you can decide whether to do it yourself or employ a builder, and knowing ahead of time what you might face makes everything so much easier - no one likes nasty surprises in the middle of a project. Be careful, though. As I found to my cost, you need to know they’re legit. Get proof of address so you can always find them. Communicate and stay positive. Don’t let renovation stress ruin the experience for you. Adaptability and a sense of humour will get you far in a renovation project. That’s easier…

OUR POP CULTURE EXPERT PAUL FLYNN HAS BEEN WRITING ABOUT TV FOR MORE THAN 20 YEARS… THE EMERGENCE OF Mae Martin two years ago was one of the pre-pandemic joys of our TV celebrity system. Mae (pronouns: they/them) is a non-binary Canadian comic whose material presses the bruise of Millennial anxiety until it hurts. Gender, sexuality and addiction troubles were all given a thorough, deeply personal rinse out in their semi-autobiographical romcom Feel Good, an ironic title for a funny show driven by mercilessly hard subject matter. The skill of the writer and performer at its centre made Feel Good live circuitously up to its title. Squint a little and season one was even family viewing. For season two, Mae has switched networks from Channel 4 to Netflix. If anyone…

AS TOLD TO GUY PEWSEY CAT DEELEY 44, TV PRESENTER ON BREAKFAST CUPCAKES, TRAWLING VINTAGE SHOPS AND CHANNELLING ROBERT REDFORD When we first moved back to London from LA, we turned it around in two months. Milo [her eldest son] was at school and loved it. Paddy [Kielty, who Cat married in 2012] and I were high-fiving each other and then: record scratch… the pandemic happened. But I taught Milo to read and ride a bike. And our littlest, James, has just started school, so I’ve been taking him in every day for an hour. I wouldn’t necessarily have been able to do that, so I’m revelling in it a little. All you can do as a parent is try your best. Just when you think you’re winning, the little…

My parents have fostered for 22 years. My admiration for them is boundless – not many people understand what it’s like to welcome new children into your home, parent alongside a biological parent who is a virtual stranger and work with social services. People put foster children up for a fail from the start but, hopefully, Kirsty can change this. Children should never be defined by what happened to them.

1. Up DRAKE Brought his son Adonis to the Billboard Music Awards. Drake wore head-to-toe off-white, Adonis went lumberjack; hearts melted. 2. New in TAIKA WAITITI Appeared to be in some sort of complicated, subsequently wildly speculated-over, moment of intertwined mutual appreciation with Rita Ora and Tessa Thompson. So that’s fun. 3.

WORDS: EMMA COX; NATALIE HAMMOND (FASHION). PHOTOS: GETTY, INSTAGRAM Few have a knack for nailing both red carpet and off-duty style quite like Jodie Turner-Smith. Pre-lockdown (and heavily pregnant), she dazzled on the promo trail for Queen & Slim, dressing her bump in sunflower sequins (Gucci) and pearlescent silk (Reem Acra). During lockdown, with a newborn in tow, she became poster woman for The North-Face x Gucci, styling out its rose-printed coat with headscarves, heavy-duty boots and a gold-winged buggy that pretty much no one else on the planet could pull off. She also slayed the virtual premiere circuit, wearing a plunging red gown with a snake-shaped choker. Earlier this month, on Late Night With Seth Meyers, her knitted frock from Alaïa mirrored the square neckline of her costumes in…

LAURA WHATELEY IS AUTHOR OF MONEY: A USER’S GUIDE. PHOTO: STOCKSY IF YOU WERE LUCKY enough to keep your job during the pandemic you might have noticed a peculiar thing happening: money left in your bank account at the end of each month. Some found cutting out commuting, meals out, trips, haircuts and not to mention hen dos turned out to be rather lucrative. But as the world reopens you may have noticed the opposite happening again. I have: my money is being swiftly sucked straight back into the black hole of Real Life. I’m back to tapping the card machine with one eye shut, wincing at my coffee and sandwich costing practically the same as a supermarket shop (in London, anyway). Thank God the world’s back in business, but…

GOT CHILDREN? Then chances are you pay – or have paid – for childcare. And you’re paying a lot. In Britain, childcare is more expensive than anywhere else in the world: over 35% of the average family’s income. It’s little surprise that almost two-thirds of women who return to work after becoming mothers are forced to work fewer hours, change jobs or leave the workforce altogether due to the crippling costs. The lack of accessible, affordable, well-funded childcare is perhaps the single biggest barrier to women’s career progress – and the Covid-19 pandemic, when women have had to shoulder the bulk of the extra care, has accelerated the problem into a mounting crisis. That’s why Grazia and our parenting platform, The Juggle, are launching a campaign with the charity Pregnant…

THE PROBLEM WITH sticking up for yourself in the media ‘is that you get called an activist, and you feel all the joy draining out of your body’, says the writer Paris Lees, with a dry laugh. ‘Most of my friends know me as funny, but you wouldn’t necessarily know that from my public image if you’ve only seen me arguing with an old man about trans rights on Newsnight’. Which is one of the reasons why Paris has written a book that is going to surprise a lot of people. What It Feels Like For A Girl is the true story of her life but presented as a novel, because she wanted to make sure it was fast and funny and furious, which it very much is. Written in…

The pandemic meant a dearth of weddings, and those that were taking place were micro affairs. Bridal designers were forced to adapt to survive. It also led to several new labels emerging, and other brands launching bridalwear lines. The common thread? Affordability. British label Harmur’s debut line offered floor-length gowns, jumpsuits, minidresses and separates from £770. After struggling to find her own wedding dress, Ally Voss launched Clover London, to bridge the gap between high street and bespoke (all priced at £1,000). Rixo, meanwhile, introduced wedding dresses, and accessories from just £75. ASOS reports selling around 800 bridal dresses a day since March, with its embroidered gowns priced £150. Whistles, Monsoon and Ghost have enjoyed success with bridalwear, so it’s no surprise that other high street brands are beginning to…

Catch up on… Breeders Martin Freeman and Daisy Haggard play irritable parents from hell in this underrated and hugely enjoyable show about the downsides of parenting young kids at impossible ages. In terms of jolly family values, it makes Motherland look like Call The Midwife. Sky Boxsets Watch live… We Are Lady Parts The story of the assemblage of the Muslim riot grrrl band is conceptually brilliant, televisually radical and, most importantly, super-funny.

Earlier this year, hit drama It’s A Sin sparked vital conversations about AIDS when it depicted the lives of young, gay men in London in the 1980s, just as the disease started to emerge in the UK. We watched as this exuberant group battled not just AIDS, but also homophobia and ignorance. On 5 June we mark 40 years since the first case of AIDS was reported, yet, four decades on, our perception of what it means to live with HIV/AIDS still needs to change drastically. Today, advances in treatment mean many people with the virus live full and happy lives, but the stigma lives on. It’s time to eradicate this prejudice once and for all.”…

PAMELA ANDERSON and Tommy Lee, of Mötley Crue, may have split for good in 1998, but they have been responsible for an important cultural reset in 2021. First came news of a TV series, starring Lily James and Sebastian Stan, based on Pammy’s and Tommy’s turbulent relationship and infamous sex tape, which has sparked a wave of Pammy-inspired style – thin eyebrows included. Most notable, though, has been the avalanche of new ‘Hot Girl/Alt Guy’ couples, as coined by Vice, in the mould of Tommy and Pammy’s rock’n’roll romance template. Flying the flag for this regenerated brand of power couple are Kourtney Kardashian and Blink 182’s Travis Barker, Megan Fox and singer Machine Gun Kelly, and actor Kat Dennings and lustrous-locked rocker Andrew WK. These couples aren’t just linked by…

CAST YOUR MIND back to the summer of 2019 and all you might be able to see is polka-dots. Black and white spots, to be precise, all over a long-sleeved, floaty mididress. We are, of course, referring to that Zara dress, which was so ubiquitous that not just every colleague, friend and passer-by in the street was wearing it, it also spawned its own Instagram account. As last year didn’t really have an ‘It’ dress, for obvious reasons, 2021 is now making up for it in style. Prepare yourself for a Hot COS Summer. With its ruched waist, circle skirt and ankle-skimming hemline, COS’s gathered dress is emerging as an early hit. It’s cropping up everywhere, dominating algorithms and hogging shop windows, enticing us all in to behold the glory…

‘I WAS ABSOLUTELY thrilled! I was the face of Covid, Ofsted, 2021 (broad), venereal disease…’ Yes, Anna Maxwell Martin was ‘super-chuffed’ to be 2021’s biggest meme, when one of her expressions – as the smug, achingly irritating DCS Patricia Carmichael in Line Of Duty – went viral, to be rapidly branded the face of everything awful the internet could think of. Anna really has been everywhere this year – 12.8 million watched the LOD series six finale and Motherland (which she leads as frantic, hard-to-love Julia) is currently airing as one of the biggest hits on BBC Two, while its earlier seasons top Netflix charts. She’s filming an ITV thriller, Hollington Drive, as we speak, will be in West End show Constellations with Chris O’Dowd from August, has a cross-Atlantic-funded…

Dressing for a wedding is never easy, especially when we’ve all fallen out of the habit after a year spent in joggers. But fear not – while you’ve been on a wedding guest sabbatical of sorts, designers have been busy creating some wonderful options to make sure you’re the person everyone wants in the photographs. There are rainbow-bright mididresses from the likes of Aje and Matteau, which require minimal accessories, or a pretty take on the shirtdress from Uterque. For an alternative to a dress, Ghospell has a chic two-piece that feels more Emma Corrin than Princess Di. Invitations pouring in but you don’t want to buy a new outfit for every event? Consider renting – you could have a designer dress from just £12 or nab statement accessories from…

What you’re aiming for is a beautiful pair of shoes with a shelf life longer than just one day. Jimmy Choo has put a twist on classic courts with a bejewelled ankle strap for added glitz, while Brother Vellies’ frilled mules are hard to resist. There’s also been a rise in brides choosing shoes in other hues, with Manolo Blahnik noticing more women opting for its iconic Hangisi heels in shades of dark blue and green. Don’t think you have to stick to heels, either – there are embellished flatsjust made to keep you on the dance floor all night long. FABULOUS FLATS UNLOCK GRAZIA Scan to shop SEE PAGE 3 FOR DETAILS…

THE TRIP OF A LIFETIME, first loves, broken hearts, mistakes, laughs, grief and motherhood - there’s a lot covered in Ruth Jones’s second novel, Us Three. But then, over 40 years of friendship, a lot does get covered. While love and romance are part of the lives of Lana, Catrin and Judith, at the forefront of Us Three is their friendship. Avowed best friends for life (on a Curly Wurly wrapper no less), the book follows the Coed Celyn girls as they become women, stretch their wings on a post-school holiday of a lifetime and enter the real world outside their Welsh hometown... and realise that even the biggest promises can be hard to keep.
