The bride was a vision in a Valentino gown with a floor-sweeping veil Princess Beatrice cut a striking figure last week as she joined a host of esteemed guests from around the world for the lavish wedding of Greek shipping heir Filippos Lemos and jewellery designer Marianna Goulandris. Wearing the distinctive crochet-appliquéd cotton Burberry trench coat that she wore last June to the service of thanksgiving at St Paul’s Cathedral to mark her grandmother the Queen’s 90th birthday, and carrying a black clutch bag bearing the name “Bea”, the 28-year-old was among a galaxy of European royalty at St Sophia’s Greek Orthodox Cathedral in London’s Bayswater. Also in attendance were King Willem-Alexander and Queen Máxima of the Netherlands, ex-King Constantine and Queen Anne-Marie of Greece, their son Crown Prince Pavlos…

With three children from his previous marriage, Ronan Keating knows all too well that Life is a Rollercoaster for parents, but the 39-year-old singer is thrilled to be doing it all again. Appearing alongside his pregnant wife Storm on ITV’s Loose Women, Ronan said: “I cannot tell you how excited I am.” Last week, in their first interview since revealing in December that they were expecting their first child together, TV producer Storm, 35, said the new arrival will have a big impact in many ways – describing her baby, which is due in the spring, as “oversized”. Not that it stopped her from looking great for her daytime TV date, wearing a dress from her pre-pregnancy days. After leaving the London studio (left), accompanied by Ronan and the pair’s…

Putting a fashionable twist on royal style, Queen Letizia of Spain showcased a catwalk favourite at a 30th birthday dinner in honour of Spanish newspaper Expansi—n with her hair in a braided up-do. Adding some grown-up glam to the go-to hairstyle of youngsters everywhere, the former newsreader, 44, wore two braids on one side, with her locks swept into a chic and flattering loose chignon (right). Letizia’s daughters Leonor, 11, and Sofía, nine, are frequently photographed with their hair in braids, but their mum gave the look a sophisticated twist with a black Carolina Herrera dress and matching Prada courts. She accessorised in style with ruby and diamond chandelier earrings, red lipstick and classic smoky eye make-up (left). She was accompanied to the event at the Westin Palace Hotel in…

It was down to business for Victoria Beckham last week as she jetted to the States ahead of New York Fashion Week to make final preparations for her catwalk show. Husband David stayed at home in London with the couple’s children – Brooklyn, 17, Romeo, 14, Cruz, who turns 12 next week, and five-year-old Harper – but was expected to join his wife for the show on Sunday. The former England football captain has been keeping a low profile ever since his personal emails were hacked and leaked on a German website, some of them revealing his fury over being blocked from receiving a knighthood in 2013 over concerns about his tax affairs. It was also reported that he had been the victim of a £1million blackmail plot. More than…

‘Be you, and be relentlessly you. That’s the stuff of champions’ Lady Gaga (left) tells fans she’s abs-olutely proud of her physique after comments about her Super Bowl appearance ‘No matter what we look like, sexy comes from within’ For Pamela Anderson, too, it’s all about self-confidence ‘You have to fight for love. You can’t live in fear of what people might say’ Tom Hiddleston shakes off jibes about his short-lived romance with Taylor Swift ‘It’s beyond daunting. I’m shaking, thinking about the prospect of doing it. I feel more nervous for this than I’ve ever felt for anything’ James Corden is completely chilled about hosting the Grammy Awards ‘If you’re buying a Valentine’s present, no reason it can’t be for yourself’ Elizabeth Hurley has one way to prevent Valentine’s…

Tara was not of this world; she was far too kind, incredibly loyal and far too vulnerable. But if you were having lunch with her or photographing her, it would always be a jolly occasion and you were never bored because she was always entertaining. At her house she would suddenly sit down at the piano and play the most beautiful piece of music. When I asked her where that came from, she said she wrote it herself. She was extremely talented. I flew to the South of France a while back to photograph her for HELLO! and we had the best time, mostly around the pool. At the end of each day’s shoot, the champagne came out, food would arrive about ten o’clock and I can’t remember what time…

Singletons, rejoice! If Valentine’s Day has left you feeling more lonely than Bridget Jones, I have fantastic news. You can apply to take part in the new series of one of my all-time favourite shows, Blind Date . The original TV dating show is making a comeback, 13 years after the series hosted by much-missed Cilla Black (above, with one would-be Romeo in 2000) ended. The Saturday night prime-time show was an instant hit after it launched in 1985, with three weddings resulting from Cilla’s assured matchmaking skills over 356 episodes. Jungle queen and former Geordie Shore star Vicky Pattison is hotly tipped to present the reboot later in the year, with singer Olly Murs and actresses Georgia May Foote and Helen Flanagan also in the frame. But how will…

When model Katie Piper was attacked with sulphuric acid at the age of 24, she thought her life was over. With her career, health and social life gone – and undergoing agonising treatment in hospital – she thought that no one would ever see her as anything other than a burns victim. But just a year after the attack, she decided to share her story in the documentary Katie: My Beautiful Face. Since then, she has forged a successful career as a TV presenter and author and launched a foundation to help others who have suffered burns or scarring. She is also now married and has a daughter. So what better person to tell us how to achieve our life goals than 33-year-old Katie? “Confidence, true deep down confidence, is…

Beaming with joy, Geri Horner and her husband Christian couldn’t have looked happier as they visited Harrow Register Office last week to register their newborn son’s birth – days after showing him off in a touching family snap. Baby Monty – the first child the couple have together – was born at London’s Portland Hospital on 21 January, weighing 7lb 8oz. Geri has a ten-year-old daughter, Bluebell, from a previous relationship, while Christian has a three-year-old daughter, Olivia, from a former romance. Last week the former Spice Girl posted a photo on Instagram of her holding Monty while Christian kissed him on his forehead. She wrote alongside the shot: “Monty is two weeks old today.” MAMA SAID The mum of two said recently that yoga helped her through her pregnancy…

Sharing a tender moment with her daughter, Tamara Ecclestone shows why breastfeeding is a subject close to her heart. The Formula 1 heiress caused a social media storm last week after posting photos online of her nursing Sophia, who turns three next month, and defending her decision to continue to breastfeed the little girl. Sharing this exclusive snap (right) with HELLO! , along with two black-and-white images (above and above right) from a forthcoming book, Tamara, 32, hit back at the criticism, saying: “I feel you should stop when it feels right and it should be a decision between you and your baby; it’s not anyone else’s decision. I don’t ask people when they are going to stop bottle-feeding their child or take a dummy away. I wouldn’t be so…

ALASTAIR COOK England cricket captain resigns Alastair Cook has resigned after a record 59 matches as England’s cricket captain. The batsman said: “Stepping down has been an incredibly hard decision but I know this is the correct decision for me and at the right time for the team. “I hope to carry on as a Test player, helping the next England captain and the team however I can.” Alastair, 32, took over as captain from Andrew Strauss in 2012. He is England’s highest run-scorer with 11,057, making a record 140 Test appearances and 30 centuries. He led the side to Ashes victories against Australia in 2013 and 2015. Gloucester-born Alastair has two daughters, Elsie and Isabelle, with wife Alice and famously relaxes by working on their farm near Leighton Buzzard…

In a moment of pure joy, the Princess of Wales holds aloft a giggling Prince William in a touching display that highlights the special bond between mother and son. The captivating image was taken at Kensington Palace in February 1983 by royal photographer Tim Graham when the second in line to the throne was just seven months old. In the photo, the latest in our series of iconic images to mark this year’s 20th anniversary of Diana’s death, the happy and relaxed Princess is clearly loving life as a first-time mother.…

Meghan Markle stepped out in London sporting true British style last week as she ran errands near Kensington Palace. Prince Harry’s actress girlfriend shopped for flowers on Kensington High Street, a short walk from her beau’s home, where she has been staying since her return from a charity trip to India in January. Meghan, 35, donned some traditional British heritage brands for her outing, opting for Hunter wellies and a Barbour jacket to beat the winter chill. More country than Kensington, the look is one that would work well in royal sport-loving circles and would not look out of place on a stroll on the Queen’s Sandringham estate. Meghan is also a fan of other British brands, including Burberry and Mulberry. SUITS YOU, MISS The Los Angeles-born star of TV…

Lady Gaga stole the show at the Super Bowl last weekend with an epic performance that began with the star leaping from the roof of the NRG Stadium in Houston for the finale of the American-football season. Following in the footsteps of stars including Madonna, Katy Perry and Beyoncé, who have all played during the prized halftime slot, the 29-year-old became the most tweeted Super Bowl act in history. The hashtag #Gaga was posted more than five million times during the 13-minute set. The dazzling show – which attracted 117½ million viewers, six million more than for the game itself – kicked off with Gaga singing God Bless America and This Land is Your Land on the roof of the stadium before diving to the stage in a harness to…

MAKING A SPLASH ABOUT HOCKNEY Robbie Williams’s wife Ayda Field was pretty as a picture at a star-studded private view of the David Hockney retrospective at London’s Tate Britain. Ayda and her pop star hubby brushed shoulders with famous art fans including Olympic diver Tom Daley, humanitarian Bianca Jagger and actress Joely Richardson.

Louise Roe looked cosy in this season’s most style-appropriate cover-up – the bomber jacket – as she stepped out in Los Angeles last week.

They’re one of 25 optical frames and five prescription sunglasses in the Kylie Specsavers collection, exclusively available in the UK and Ireland from 14 February, with two pairs for £99/€149.

They’re from the “modern classic” part of Kylie’s collection – the others are “subtle bling” and “reinvented vintage”. Look Three: This…

A day into her historic Sapphire Jubilee year, the Queen was all smiles as she boarded a train to London after her annual winter stay at Sandringham. On 6 February she became the first monarch in British history to reign for 65 years. She spent the milestone day privately at her 20,000-acre private estate in Norfolk, no doubt also remembering her beloved father George VI, whose death there on that day in 1952 saw her accede to the throne aged just 25. But she was in good spirits as, wearing a lime-green coat and dress with a colourful headscarf, pearls and a diamond-and-pearl brooch, she was escorted onto the King’s Cross train by staff at King’s Lynn station before taking a seat in the first class carriage. As the Queen…

Best known for his roles in Thor and The Night Manager, Tom Hiddleston inadvertently found himself in the middle of a costume drama last year when, during his three-month romance with Taylor Swift, he was photographed wearing a vest top that proudly stated: “I [heart] T.S.” However, in a new interview with GQ magazine, Tom said of his much-mocked wardrobe choice: “It was a joke.” The Golden Globe-winning actor was first romantically linked with pop star Taylor last June, shortly after she announced her split from DJ Calvin Harris. The following month Tom accompanied the Shake it Off singer and a group of friends to her Rhode Island holiday home, where they spent a few days together around Independence Day. It was while there that he was photographed on the…

For youngsters toying with the idea of a catwalk career there was inspiration last week from Gigi Hadid and doll manufacturer Mattel. Showing that ruling the runway really is child’s play for her, the 21-year-old model opened the Tommy Hilfiger spring/summer 2017 presentation in Venice Beach, California, showcasing designs including her second TommyxGigi capsule collection (left). Watched by fashion fans including Lady Gaga and Formula 1 ace Lewis Hamilton – not to mention her mum Yolanda, dad Mohamed and brother Anwar – Gigi was joined on the catwalk by younger sister Bella, 20. But there was no doubt who was the star of this show. Taking to the runway with Gigi and fellow models Selena Forrest, Camille Hurel and Samile Bermannelli (above), Tommy told the audience: “This is the Gigi…

‘It’s incredible to have these two. I wouldn’t ever want to imagine a world without Poppy and Chloe’ Cara As three beautiful sisters, they simply couldn’t be closer. And in their first-ever joint interview, for PORTER magazine, Cara, Poppy and Chloe Delevingne have opened up about their relationship and how much they rely on each other. While Cara, 24, is one of the world’s top supermodels and is used to giving interviews, as is her model and actress sister Poppy, 30, their eldest sibling Chloe, 32, keeps a much lower profile. Despite their different life choices – Chloe has been married to husband Ed Grant for three years and they have two children, while Poppy and her husband James Cook are not yet ready to be parents and…

Kylie Minogue’s legal differences with Kylie Jenner over ownership of their name may have been settled. Last year, the Australian singer filed her opposition to Kylie J’s 2015 application to the US Patent and Trademark Office seeking to trademark her first name, stating it could cause confusion and “damage” to Kylie M’s brand, which covers music, jewellery, perfumes and toiletries. Kylie Jenner has cosmetics, clothing and accessories ranges under the name KYLIE. The Minogue legal team argued that, while their client was an “internationally renowned performing artist, humanitarian and breast cancer activist known worldwide simply as ‘Kylie’”, who already owned Kylie-related trademarks in the US, Kylie Jenner, 19, was a “secondary reality television personality”. Now the lawyers for Kylie Minogue have withdrawn their opposition to the application, possibly signalling that…

As one of Hollywood’s most influential power couples, George and Amal Clooney don’t do things by halves: the lavish Venice wedding of Tinseltown’s most eligible bachelor and the international human rights lawyer was the stuff of fairytales. Now comes the news that the pair are expecting not just one but two babies in June. The couple like to keep us guessing and never more so than in the past few weeks, with Amal, 39, appearing in public with a slightly fuller figure, fuelling speculation that she was expecting. Talk of their double joy was confirmed last week, when US chatshow host Julie Chen announced the happy news on air, tagging the story to singer Beyoncé’s recent announcement that she and husband Jay-Z were expecting twins. Speaking on The Talk ,…

‘I could never have imagined my life would have turned out like this’ When Ameera MacIntyre first encountered handsome personal protection officer Russell Shotts, she hoped that he would bring her peace of mind at one of the most difficult times of her life. But in a remarkable turn of events he has also brought her much-needed happiness after the very public break-up of her marriage to investigative journalist Donal MacIntyre. Now, Ameera reveals to HELLO! that she and Russell are expecting their first child together. “I could never have imagined my life would have turned out like this. Now I feel a sense of calm when I’m around Russ – he’s my big protector,” says Ameera of the 40-year-old bodyguard, whom she met when he gave her advice on…

With her instinctive flair for fashion, Diana, Princess of Wales evolved from a demure young woman with a penchant for romantic flounces and frills, to a super-chic, confident global style icon who rocked the design world and made a dramatic impact with every outfit she wore. Her influence on the industry was extraordinary and now, as we approach the 20-year anniversary of her death, the Diana look is back on trend. Indeed, this spring, haute couture is having a “Diana moment” as the runways teem with designs reminiscent of the eternally glamorous Princess… TANK GIRL Then Wearing a khaki jumpsuit as she squeezed into a tank during a visit to the Royal Hampshire Regiment at Tidworth in 1998 (above), Diana managed to make military gear look chic.

It’s worth remembering that many beauty industry standard ingredients were originally derived from plants When it comes to your skin, do you put your faith in science or nature? Traditionally, you either went super modern and pumped your skin full of ingredients created in a lab, or turned to less sophisticated unguents and balms rich in plant extracts. But now the latest generation of herbal helpers offers the best of both worlds. These still contain plant-derived ingredients, but often they have been “tweaked” in the lab so your skin gets just the best bits. It’s worth remembering that many standard beauty industry ingredients were originally derived from plants, from the salicylic acid we use to unclog our pores (originally from the bark of willow trees) to the glycolic acid we…

Unapologetically sweet and covered with a glorious caramel sauce, this is perfect served after a long, chilly walk. This recipe harks back to the original method from the 1970s and avoids water-bathing or stove-top steaming.
