Looking tanned and toned, Britney Spears soaked up the sun and splashed in the surf during a fun-filled family holiday in Kaui, Hawaii last week. The pop star, 35, wore a white Beach Bunny bikini and showed the benefits of regular workouts and rigorous dance routines as she was joined by her sons Sean Preston, 11, and Jayden James, ten. The Gimme More singer was taking a break from her Las Vegas residency at Planet Hollywood which, it was announced last week, she is quitting in December after four years. “As I prepare to say goodbye to Piece of Me, I had no idea how magical this experience would be,” she said of the show, which kicked off in late 2013. “Having my fans around the world come see my…

She is already an Olympian and a Princess; and now Charlene of Monaco has become a lady of letters – courtesy of two new postage stamps. Issued by the Monaco Stamps Office last week to mark the fifth anniversary of the Princess Charlene of Monaco Foundation, they feature photos of Charlene in action for the charitable organisation. Despite being a far cry from her trademark glamorous image (seen, right, at the Princess Grace Awards Gala in New York), the stamps show the mum of two in her element: helping children to learn to swim and stay safe in water. The first (top left) features Charlene in the pool with a young South African boy in 2015 during the South Africa-Monaco Rugby Exchange programme, while the second (below, left) was taken…

The chance to Burn rubber proved too tempting for Ellie Goulding, launching the Range Rover Velar in New York last week. In a promo video to celebrate unveiling the luxury car, the singer said: “I can’t believe I’m going to be the first person to drive [it], outside of Land Rover. It’s beautiful.” Posting a photo to Instagram of her posing with the car (left), Ellie wrote: “What a beautiful day in Central Park,” adding the hashtag: #probablywontdriveitin theseheels. Ellie later performed an exclusive gig, where she sang hits including 2015’s Love Me Like You Do . Introducing the track, Ellie said: “It’s a love song. Who’s feeling loved up?” Presumably Ellie, who was snapped with her rumoured new boyfriend Caspar Jopling (right) in the Big Apple a few days…

‘Canadians displayed a strength of character and commitment to one another that is still evident today’ The Prince of Wales joined his sons the Duke of Cambridge and Prince Harry last week to pay tribute to Canadian soldiers killed during the First World War. The royal trio, who have all served in the armed forces, wore remembrance poppies and military medals to mark the centenary of the Battle of Vimy Ridge, which saw the Allies defeat the Germans in April 1917. Also at the ceremony in northern France, which was attended by some 25,000 people, were French President François Hollande and Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, his wife Raw Copy Sophie and nine-year-old son Xavier, as well as Canada’s Governor General David Johnston and his wife Sharon (all above, with…

‘They’re not mistakes. They were bus stops on life’s journey. Divorce is not a failure, it’s another chapter. As one chapter ends, another one starts’ Four-times-married Loose Woman Janet Street-Porter (left) doesn’t regret all those return trips to the altar ‘I felt we were soulmates when I first met her, but the longer we worked together, the more I realised we weren’t alike at all. She approached stuff almost like a scientist. She was terribly organised – completely the opposite of me’ Actor Julie Walters remembers the comic contrast of her late friend and frequent co-star Victoria Wood ‘They’re going to have to call it Morse Code. Bleep bleep bleep’ Gordon Ramsay says his new TV show will be unmissable. In fact the chef swears by it ‘I was always…

‘We thought white would be graceful and simple and a lovely way to remember Diana’ Graham Dillamore Inspired by the life, style and image of Diana, Princess of Wales and created in her memory, the beautiful White Garden at Kensington Palace burst into bloom last week for its official opening. The exquisite memorial has been planted in the Sunken Garden at the Palace, where the Princess lived until her death 20 years ago and where the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge and their two children have a home today. The 20,000 bulbs planted over the winter, which have blossomed unseasonably early due to the mild weather, are of mostly white flowers, including thousands of Myosotis snowsylva – white forget-me-nots – that were specially sourced by the Palace…

‘I’m now at my most comfortable waking up with my kids and going to the beach’ ‘It’s gratifying to be financing big, big movies as a woman in my 40s’ Charming, chatty and warm, it is hard to believe that Charlize Theron plays a criminal psychopath in her new film, Fast & Furious 8 . She has certainly played her fair share of villains in the past – she portrayed a real-life serial killer in 2003’s Monster , for which she won an Oscar, and plays the evil Queen in Snow White and the Huntsman and The Huntsman: Winter’s War – but even Charlize was taken aback by the malevolence displayed by her latest character, high-tech terrorist Cipher. “Usually, when the villain is a woman, she’s a femme fatale, which…

As a youngest child, it must be pretty hard to make your own mark in the world if you’re following on from some super-successful siblings. So let’s spare a thought for Kylie Jenner, whose big sisters or half-sisters include Kim Kardashian, one of the most famous women on the planet; Kendall Jenner, one of the hottest, most in-demand models; and Kourtney and Khloé Kardashian – who, let’s face it, aren’t doing so badly either. They’re tough acts to follow and, thanks to her family’s millions, Kylie could easily rest on her laurels and be famous for being famous. Credit where credit’s due, though: Kylie (pictured right, and below right with Kendall and Kim) is doing her own thing. Now it has been announced that Life of Kylie, an eight-episode Kardashian…

A Céline small ring bag over her arm, round-frame sunglasses and sassy red lips completed her easy-going spring style.

They are one of Hollywood’s hottest couples, but Bradley Cooper and Irina Shayk are adapting to life as a family of three, as it was revealed last week that they have become parents to a baby girl. According to reports, their daughter was born in March but the pair have kept the news of her arrival under wraps. Silver Linings Playbook star Bradley, 42, and Russian-born supermodel Irina, 31, have given the new arrival a suitably exotic name – Lea de Seine Shayk Cooper – with the half-Greek, half-French name meaning “the bringer of good news”. A source close to the couple, who are rumoured to be engaged, revealed to People magazine: “They are both extremely thrilled and feel so blessed.” Irina was spotted shopping at a farmer’s market with…

‘When we found out, there was excitement. We’re so ready to see our little family expand’ With a dramatic flourish, Kimberly Wyatt throws open the thick velvet curtains that frame the entrance to her new Surrey home and strikes a pose. Dressed in a tight-fitting scarlet minidress and killer heels, she is the embodiment of a red-hot mama – and new mama-to-be. She is speaking exclusively for the first time about the baby she and her husband, model Max Rogers, are expecting this August: a little brother or sister for their two-year-old daughter Willow. The dancer, choreographer and former Pussycat Dolls star tells us she has finally shaken off the terrible morning sickness she suffered every day for the first three months. Now she’s feeling – and looking – fabulous.…

Olympic gold medal winner Greg Rutherford was jumping for joy last week as he shared the news that he and partner Susie Verrill are to have their second child. The London 2012 long jump champion Instagrammed a snap (above, right) of him holding two-year-old son Milo’s hand on Susie’s bump. “Me and [Susie] are absolutely thrilled to announce we’ll be having our second son in July,” he wrote. “Milo can’t wait to share all the toys he doesn’t want/ like with his little brother.” Posting a similar image (above, left), Susie revealed their baby was conceived during Greg’s Strictly Come Dancing stint last year. “It turns out I like my other half best when he’s clad in a floral salsa shirt,” she joked. For once the couple (left, in 2015)…

For years it was her childhood playground, a sun-splashed Italian mansion high in the hills overlooking Florence where her great-aunt Violet lived in splendour. To this day, Villa dell’Ombrellino retains a special place in the heart of the Duchess of Cornwall – and she would love to have it back. Camilla paid a private visit to the one-time family property just before her tour of Italy and Austria with the Prince of Wales earlier this month. Bought in 1924 with the royal legacy left to her great-grandmother Alice Keppel, it stayed in the family for 50 years until her mother Rosalind Shand was obliged to part with it in the 1970s. Now empty and forgotten, its iron gates rusting, Ombrellino still commands one of the most breathtaking views in Tuscany.…

THE DUKE OF CAMBRIDGE AND PRINCE HARRY Unveil award to honour young stars The Duke of Cambridge and Prince Harry are to present a new award to young people in their mother’s memory. Kensington Palace said last week that Prince William and his younger brother will present the Legacy Award to 20 “exceptional” young people from around the world on behalf of charity The Diana Award, which was set up to honour Princess Diana’s memory. William and Harry will meet the winners, who will be chosen for their kindness, compassion and service, at an awards ceremony at St James’s Palace in London on 18 May. The Diana Award chief executive Tessy Ojo said: “Princess Diana is widely remembered for her values of compassion, kindness and service to others irrespective of…

Fresh-faced and girlish, this is Princess Diana at her most relaxed. This latest image in our series of iconic pictures to mark the 20th anniversary of Diana’s death, was taken around the time of her 25th birthday in July 1986. Dressed casually in white dungarees and a stripy pink shirt and leaning against a sundial – a wedding gift from the Duke of Beaufort – she relaxes in the grounds of Highgrove, the Prince of Wales’ country house in Gloucestershire where the princess spent countless happy hours. Already a young mother to two small boys, Diana relished the freedom to kick back far away from prying eyes. She could simply be herself and enjoy precious time with her little princes, for whom the 15 acres of gardens and meadows were…

On a show filled with scandal, broken relationships and catfights, Kyle Richards has managed to maintain a beautifully enviable life. As one of the only two original stars to still feature on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills , the 48-year-old mother of four is blissfully married to her husband of 21 years, real estate mogul Mauricio Umansky, while heading a burgeoning fashion empire and producing her first scripted TV show. Well connected from birth – one of her sisters is Kathy Hilton, mum of Paris and Nicky – her effortlessly glamorous life has made Kyle into one of Real Housewives’ most popular stars. And it’s not just her home life that is sorted. As RHOBH screens its seventh season on hayu, Kyle has settled into her own skin –…

IN A SPIN ON OPENING NIGHT Fresh from a standing ovation at the London Coliseum, Katherine Jenkins and Alfie Boe were also the stars of the show at the Carousel afterparty. The West End musical received rave reviews on its debut – although Katherine confessed to pre-show nerves: “It’s different… and terrifying. Alfie’s done loads of opera but this is my debut in musical theatre.” The pair were joined at the St Martins Lane hotel bash by guests including Claire Sweeney, Connie Fisher and Gok Wan. BAGS OF STYLE AT PARIS BASH There was no question what to wear to last week’s Louis Vuitton party in Paris – creative director Nicolas Ghesquière personally dressed celebrities in the label’s key pieces. The occasion was the launch of bags and accessories designed…

‘As soon as it is warm enough, I would be in the water all day if I could. I definitely prefer a one-piece to a bikini’ After more than 25 years in the fashion business, Helena Christensen is still very much in demand. We grabbed her for a quick chat about her style, beauty secrets and new campaign as the face of the Designers at Debenhams Collection, featuring designs from the likes of John Rocha, Henry Holland and Jasper Conran. Helena, tell us about the new collection you are modelling… “I’ve been working with Debenhams for a couple of years, so I kind of know them by now. When we went to do the campaign in Curaçao, it was like being on holiday with your friends – and then, you…

‘When they held him up to show me, “Beau” just popped into my head’ It all sounds suspiciously quiet when Tori Spelling speaks to us from her Los Angeles home. There’s none of the cacophony you’d expect from five children – including a newborn. But baby Beau, born on 2 March weighing 5lb 12oz, is asleep while Liam, ten, Stella, eight, Hattie, five, and four-year-old Finn are busy playing in the garden. Family life may be an oasis of calm for Tori and her actor husband of ten years, Dean McDermott, but silence makes her nervous. “The only time I put my hands up and say, ‘I can’t cope,’ is when it’s too quiet,” says the former Beverly Hills 90210 star and daughter of late TV mogul Aaron. “I grew…

Sun-kissed actress Michelle Keegan and stylish Millie Mackintosh played it cool in the heatwave last week. The stars, who both design fashion collections, showed their style credentials with 29-year-old Michelle (far left) in a striped crochet top, cropped flare-cut jeans and black flip-flops, and Millie, 27 (left), opting for a pretty camisole, ripped denim and Converse trainers. Michelle soaked up the sun – and sipped on a smoothie – with husband Mark Wright (inset bottom left) in Essex, where they live, following a recent trip to Paris – their first time in the City of Love. The couple celebrate their wedding anniversary next month and took a trip down memory lane last week with a visit to St Mary’s Church in Bury St Edmunds, where they married two years ago.…

Prince Harry will join the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge to cheer on 39,000 runners at this weekend’s Virgin Money London Marathon. The trio will sport matching blue headbands (above) bearing the logo of their mental health campaign Heads Together, which is Charity of the Year for the marathon. In a video message to the runners, Harry (left) says: “I’m sure it will be one of the most rewarding experiences of your life. William, Catherine and I will be there to cheer you on.” In the build-up this week, Kate will host Team Heads Together runners to train at Kensington Palace while Harry will hand out race numbers and headbands at the Marathon Expo at London’s ExCel Centre. In a new Heads Together video, meanwhile, Stephen Fry opens up about…

Almost six months after putting their careers on hold to focus on caring for their three-year-old son Noah in the wake of his cancer diagnosis, Canadian crooner Michael Bublé and wife Luisana Lopilato have been able to start spring on a positive note. Speaking for the first time in public about the youngster’s wellbeing, Luisana told reporters at a Buenos Aires press conference (below left) for her new film Those Who Love, Hate : “As a family we were always very united and we fought this together. We did everything we could for our son so he would come through this.” And despite saying that speaking about Noah’s illness was “difficult”, she added: “We are looking forward to thinking about the future, to seeing our children grow.” The family revealed…

If you are a fan of Sir Tom Jones, you can Help Yourself to his LA home – just so long as you have £6.45million to spare. The singer has put his Beverly Hills mansion, in the gated community of Mulholland Estates, on the market 19 years after buying it. And with a host of quirky features and some highly individual decor, no one can say It’s Not Unusual. Highlights of the five-bedroom property (above) include an outdoor pool, a fountain, seven bathrooms and a sweeping staircase in the grand entrance hall. Leopard lovers, meanwhile, will be wild about the carpets and upholstery, much of which features the eye-catching big pussycat print. Not to mention various animal statues dotted about the house. Sir Tom will soon be on the move…

The first high street c l o t h i n g collection from Victoria B e c k h a m sold out in hours when it launched last week. The former Spice Girl collaborated with US chain Target for the capsule collection, which also included children’s wear and plus-sized clothing. “I am overwhelmed by your response to the launch of my #VBxTarget collaboration,” the 42-year-old designer wrote on Twitter. “Thank you so much for your patience and sorry for any frustration. Hold tight!” Fans had scrambled to snap up the pieces and items were already being sold on eBay and other reseller sites for up to four times the original price within 24 hours of the launch. The Target tie-up is likely to be the first of many…

‘Diana had the choice of all the designers in the world, yet she wanted to wear my dresses’ With a mischievous smile and a sassy swing in her step, Diana, Princess of Wales paraded up and down an imaginary catwalk in invisible heels, at her apartment at Kensington Palace. Wearing a show-stopping black silk georgette gown adorned with thousands of glittering beads, she giggled as she stopped and turned. It was her most sensational, figure-hugging outfit to date and watching in awe was her audience of one: designer Jacques Azagury, the master of style credited with transforming her from a demure Sloane Ranger with a penchant for ruffles and pearls into a global fashion icon. Poignantly, it was summer 1997, just before the Princess’s tragic trip to France, and…

Meghan wants to take a holiday between 15 and 22 May, which will give her plenty of time to jet into the UK from Canada and be at Harry’s side for the ceremony in Berkshire on 20 May. If she does attend, royal watchers say it will mark a significant development in her and Harry’s ten-month relationship. Until now the pair have tried to keep their romance out of the media spotlight, often going undetected…

The couple had lunch in the French capital at the Ritz before a spot of retail therapy at the Chanel store (left). The former Friends star was effortlessly chic in jogging bottoms, trainers and a tailored coat, while her The Leftovers husband rocked a leather jacket, T-shirt and jeans. The couple later glammed it up to head out into the City of Light with Jennifer, 48, stunning in a black and coral silk maxi dress (below). They enjoyed an intimate dinner for two at Verjus, a stylish restaurant on the upmarket Rue de Richelieu,…

Amanda Holden won the prize for being belle of the ball at last week’s glittering Olivier Awards. The radiant Britain’s Got Talent judge was a vision in yellow as she sashayed up the steps of London’s Royal Albert Hall in her exquisite backless, custom-made Celia Kritharioti gown, her skirt billowing in the breeze on the hottest day of the year to date. The 46-year-old presenter is a big fan of the Greek couture designer – who has also dressed Kim Kardashian, Gwyneth Paltrow and Jennifer Lopez – and has worn several of her creations on the ITV talent show. Amanda wasn’t alone in causing a stir at theatre’s most prestigious night of the year. The Good Fight star Rose Leslie was the centre of attention in a sheer red tulle…

Yvette Fielding was the youngest ever Blue Peter presenter, landing the children’s TV gig aged 17. Born in Manchester and now 48 with two children, she is married to TV producer Karl Beattie and now hosts Most Haunted. What’s your favourite TV show ever? Game of Thrones. I read all the books first then languished in the TV show. It’s an immense drama that takes me out of my day-to-day life and throws me into a place I think I’d love to be. What’s your guilty TV pleasure? Gogglebox. When I first heard of the show’s concept I thought, “Dear God!” Then my daughter made me watch and I was hooked. Ingenious. What did you last watch on catch-up? The Last Kingdom. It’s fantastic historic drama. I read Bernard Cornwell’s…

When Carmen Jordá sat in her father’s racing kart for the first time, aged nine, she didn’t want to get out again. Motorsport is in the blood of the 28-year-old development driver for the Renault Sport Formula 1 team, whose father is former racing driver José Miguel Jordá. “I have had petrol in my veins since I was little, when my father sat me and my sister in his old kart,” says Carmen, who poses for us in a rare moment away from team duties. “My sister had a spin and soon got tired, but I refused to get out. I was hypnotised watching Formula 1 on the TV too.” The stunning Spanish driver, who combines her driving career with fashion and modelling work, harbours dreams of competing in F1…

Bright Ideas Want to tackle age spots and pigmentation and get brighter skin? Look no further than super-strength vitamin C serums. Formulated to be used at night to achieve the best results, these regulate the melanin pigment production in your skin to even its tone and make it brighter. DRINK UP While it’s a myth that drinking water hydrates your skin, there is one ingredient in your skincare routine that really can hydrate and that is hyaluronic acid. It’s not an acid that peels but a water magnet that can hold up to a thousand times its weight in water in the skin. You’ll find this in plenty of daytime serums that go under moisturiser and make-up. THE ACID TEST FOR SMOOTH SKIN Gone are the days of walnut scrubs.…
