Princess Eugenie put her best fashion foot forward last week as she stepped out for a party at Louis Vuitton’s flagship boutique in London’s New Bond Street to celebrate GingerNutz , an illustrated book inspired by the life of US Vogue’s flame-haired creative director Grace Coddington (albeit reimagined in print as an orang-utan). Eugenie also caught up with her cousin Prince Harry’s former girlfriend Cressida Bonas at the bash (top). The actress has long been friends with the Princess, to whom she remained close even after Cressida’s split from Harry in 2014, and at the party – also attended by fashion’s finest, including Kate Moss and actress Ruth Negga – they happily posed together for photos. Cressida also recently snapped up a new opportunity: she appears in a music video…

If statuesque supermodel Claudia Schiffer was hoping that her book signing event in London last week would be a towering success, she wasn’t disappointed. Posing outside the Kingsman x Mr Porter menswear shop in the capital, Claudia was all smiles as she prepared to meet her fans (left). Celebrating her 30 years in the industry and compiled by Claudia herself, the book (right) covers her favourite fashion moments and features photography from the likes of Mario Testino, Herb Ritts and Ellen von Unwerth, much of it shot before digital photography became the norm. “Finding the negatives was a challenge and it took a long time,” Claudia said of the project. “Every picture has a story to it and a special memory.” The book signing coincided with an event to promote…

‘This Christmas everyone’s flying to New York to be with me and the baby’ The Hilton family seldom do anything by halves. So when faced with the happy task of organising a baby shower for 34-year-old socialite and businesswoman Nicky, who is expecting her second child with her British husband James Rothschild, her mother Kathy and famous older sister Paris pulled out all the stops. The gathering of close family and friends at the family’s mansion in Bel Air, Los Angeles, enjoyed an array of sweet treats in both blue and pink – Nicky and James are keeping the sex of their baby a surprise – including one pink and one blue cake, cupcakes topped with plastic babies, and towers of delicious Ladurée macaroons. The guests included Nicky’s aunt Kyle…

Coleen Rooney has broken her silence about her marriage, saying she is not going to leave football star Wayne after he was stopped by police for drink-driving while travelling with another woman. Writing on Facebook, the mother of three, who is expecting the couple’s fourth child, also denied suggestions Wayne had moved out of the family home. “No, I’m not taking Wayne back as he’s never left,” she wrote. “I’m not going to list his good qualities as a person as I don’t think he deserves it at this time but one thing is that he is a brilliant dad.” She continued: “Do I love Wayne… yes I do. If I didn’t then I wouldn’t be trying to make it work. I know I would be fine on my own,…

ELIZABETH NAILS HER DEBUT ROLE Elizabeth Hurley mixes glamour and elegance as she poses on the red carpet for the 39th annual Cairo International Film Festival (below), dressed in a figure-hugging gown from Dsquared2. The 52-year-old model and actress was a guest of honour at the festival, which was hosted by Egyptian actor and film producer Asser Yassin. Talking on the night, Elizabeth spoke about her love for the cinema industry and said she was delighted to be attending the event for the first time. She obviously enjoyed herself as she later tweeted: “Thank you Cairo Film Festival for having me.” A CROWNING ACHIEVEMENT Claire Foy, Matt Smith and Vanessa Kirby had a royal appointment in London last week to premiere the second series of their hit show…

There was a huge buzz in the air as the newly engaged couple emerged, walking hand in hand and wearing rapturous smiles while cheers came from the crowds gathered outside Kensington Palace (writes our royal correspondent Emily Nash, left, with Prince Harry). Naturally HELLO! was there as Meghan held on to Harry’s arm and beamed with joy, while he fiddled slightly nervously with his suit jacket. Despite the winter chill, Harry and Meghan chose to hold their first photocall in the stunning Sunken Garden, which was transformed with white flowers over the summer in memory of Harry’s mother Diana, Princess of Wales. Meghan looked every inch a Princess-in-waiting; she waved and thanked the members of the 100-strong sea of reporters and photographers for their congratulations as she reassuringly stroked Harry’s…

THE STARS SHINE AT CHARITY GALA London’s luxurious Dorchester hotel saw some famous faces as the RNIB hosted its annual gala dinner, sponsored by Investec. Lord Fellowes, actress Sarah Parish and Made in Chelsea star Mark-Francis Vandelli were among those enjoying a performance by legendary Motown group The Temptations.

Kylie Minogue is looking better than ever and flying the flag for Australia in London. The Melbourne-born singer, 49, was attending a London party last week to mark the end of fellow Aussie Nick Cave’s European tour with his band The Bad Seeds. The event, at Loulou’s nightclub, also highlighted Nick’s wife Susie’s fashion label The Vampire’s Wife and Kylie and many other guests, including Alexa Chung, Florence Welch and Daisy Lowe, wore dresses from the label. Nick – known for his quirky style – wore a red satin shirt and smart pinstriped suit. He and Kylie are old friends, recording duet Where the Wild Roses Grow in 1996 and, after the party, Kylie wrote on Instagram: “The divine Susie @thevampireswife & @nickcaveofficial...what a beautiful celebration of love, hard work,…

An invitation to Buckingham Palace is not usually in anyone’s routine. Little wonder, then, that the stars of Strictly Come Dancing were thrilled to be asked to join the Duchess of Cornwall at a special tea dance to highlight the benefits of staying active in later life. Camilla, who is president of the National Osteoporosis Society (NOS) and a big fan of the TV dance series, gave a real lift to the show’s pros by welcoming them, along with judges, former contestants and NOS members, to the event, which will be screened during the Strictly Christmas special. Among those getting in the swing of things were radio presenters – and 2015 ballroom wannabes – Katie Derham and Jeremy Vine as well as pro Brendan Cole (all left). Katie’s dance partner…

Even with her eyes shielded by shades and her hair hidden beneath a scarf, for Naomi Campbell there was no disguising the distress as she said goodbye to Tunisian fashion designer Azzedine Alaïa, the man she called Papa. Joining mourners (above, with models Afef Jnifen and Farida Khelfa) at the burial near Tunis last week (left and below left), the supermodel could not hold back the tears (right). Naomi and Azzedine (inset left) were famously close, their friendship dating back decades. They met when she was 16, and he became a father figure, putting her up in his Paris home when she was in the city and helping to kick-start her career. “I didn’t know how to do runway when I first started, but he believed in me,” she once…

Car-mad couple Geri and Christian Horner were fired up for a torquefest when they attended the launch of two new Aston Martins in London last week. The singer and Red Bull Formula 1 team principal were suitably geared up for a date night at the event (left), where they toasted the new Vantage and Vantage GTE. Geri, herself the proud owner of an Aston Martin, has said she has “always loved cars”; however, on social media she steered the conversation towards her polished look. Posting a photo, she wrote: “The power of red,” adding a lipstick emoji to match her ruby clutch bag. The car was definitely the star a few days earlier, when the pair celebrated Christian’s 44th birthday by tucking into a cake shaped like a sporty two-seater…

‘Zimbabwe, you beauty’ Prince Harry’s former girlfriend Chelsy Davy (left) celebrates last week’s events in her homeland ‘I never played with dolls when I was a kid. I played with cars. I’m a bit of a boy like that, really’ Feud star Catherine Zeta-Jones reveals her inner petrolhead ‘I like British writing and British work and I love it here. I think the way you look is much more important in Hollywood than possibly it is here’ Dame Julie Walters loves working in the UK as much as it loves her ‘Focus on what you can control.

It is one of the most glittering events on the royal calendar and last week the Duchess of Cambridge rose to the occasion when she attended the Royal Variety Performance with her husband the Duke. Just hours before curtain up, it was feared that the annual event at the London Palladium would have to be cancelled due to a security alert nearby. But in the true spirit of showbusiness the show did go on – though delayed for an hour by the late arrival of the royal guests. And what an entrance they made. Accompanied by Prince William, who looked dapper in black tie, Kate sparkled in a bespoke ice-blue floor-length gown by Jenny Packham, beautifully embellished with sprinkles of shimmering beads and crystals. She wore her chestnut hair loose…

Santa has certainly delivered to Windsor Castle, which unveiled a spectacular Christmas tree in St George’s Hall last week. Glittering with golden baubles and stars, the 20ft Nordmann fir (left) – cut from nearby Windsor Great Park – makes the backdrop to Her Majesty’s traditional Christmas Day speech at Buckingham Palace (top) look positively elfin. The tree is part of a festive display marking 20 years since Windsor Castle’s restoration was completed – including extensive intricate gilding – after the devastating fire of November 1992. Other Windsor celebrations were entirely platinum last week as the Queen and Duke of Edinburgh welcomed friends and family to their Berkshire residence for a private dinner to celebrate their 70th wedding anniversary. The Royal Mail marked the milestone with commemorative stamps (below) featuring images…

Switching parental duties for royal ones, Princess Sofia of Sweden looked serene with an elegant up-do (inset and left) while attending the Representation Day dinner at the Royal Palace in Stockholm last week, alongside her husband Prince Carl Philip and in-laws King Carl XVI Gustaf and Queen Silvia. Also there was Prince Daniel, representing his wife Crown Princess Victoria, who was on an official visit to Germany. For Sofia and Carl (right, with Daniel), the event came amid preparations for the christening of their three-month-old son Prince Gabriel, due to take place on Friday in the Royal Chapel at Drottningholm Palace. The couple also have a 19-month-old son, Alexander, and recently spoke of the challenges of bringing up two boys under two. “We try to create as much family time…

GWYNETH PALTROW ‘Engaged to producer Brad Falchuk’ Oscar-winning actress Gwyneth Paltrow has reportedly got engaged to TV producer Brad Falchuk. The couple started dating in 2014, several months after Gwyneth, now 45, “consciously uncoupled” from her husband of ten years Chris Martin, with whom she has children Apple, 13, and 11-year-old Moses. The couple have yet to confirm the reports, although Gwyneth has been seen out wearing a large gold ring on her left hand. It is believed they have been talking about getting married for a year. “They both knew it would happen, but it wasn’t a big thing to them because they were both in long marriages before. There wasn’t a rush,” a source told Us Weekly. RODNEY BEWES Likely Lads star dies aged 79 Actor…

He was the heart-throb whose picture adorned the walls of millions of teenage girls the world over. When he sang I Think I Love You they imagined he was singing to them and, for a generation of women, the boy with the kind eyes, sweet smile and glossy hair was their first true love, forever cherished as young and beautiful. And so when the news broke last week that David Cassidy, one of the biggest teen pop stars of all time, had died at the age of 67, it was met with great sadness. The former star of The Partridge Family, whose hits included How Can I Be Sure?, died at a hospital near his home in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. David, who earlier this year had revealed he was suffering…

‘William and Kate are making a difference to youngsters who have got challenging backgrounds’ The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge made a whistle-stop tour of the West Midlands last week – and brought home some noisy gifts for Prince George and Princess Charlotte. The pair were given several items, including a brass whistle, wooden duck call and plastic slide whistle, after enjoying a tour of Acme Whistles, a 147-year-old family business in Birmingham that invented the first police whistle. During the tour the couple had to put their fingers in their ears as managing director Simon Topman demonstrated some of the company’s noisier products. Kate, 35, who is pregnant with her and Prince William’s third child, recycled a coat by Goat Fashion for the trip, which she teamed with a…
