‘I feel like everything’s fallen into place... We are very happy and in love, and our cats are chuffed as well’ His hit song Perfect was an ode to their love and now Ed Sheeran has confirmed he has found his number one by popping the question to his childhood crush Cherry Seaborn. In a low-key Instagram post last weekend, the 26-year-old singer revealed he had proposed, with a photo of the couple kissing. “Got myself a fiancé just before new year,” he wrote. “We are very happy and in love, and our cats are chuffed as well.” After presenting his 25-year-old fiancée with a diamond engagement ring, Ed is now preparing for the big day. Some sources speculate that the couple will choose a venue close to their Suffolk…

Katy Perry is simply dotty about Minnie Mouse so she had no doubts over what to wear to help the Disney icon celebrate her star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. Dressed in the cartoon character’s signature polka-dot look – although by designer Christian Siriano – the singer said: “[Minnie’s] style is the epitome of fun fashion. To this day no one rocks a bow, the colour red or a dot quite like her – trust me, I am trying.” Katy did rock her bit for girl power, however, highlighting the fact that Minnie, who celebrates her 90th anniversary this year, was being honoured “a brief 40 years after Mickey [Mouse] got his star”.…

EWAN McGREGOR Actor to divorce wife of 22 years Golden Globe-winning Fargo actor Ewan McGregor has filed for divorce from his wife Eve Mavrakis. Court documents show that Ewan cited irreconcilable differences as the reason for the end of his 22-year marriage to the production designer. The couple, who have four children, separated last May. Eve, 51, has said the decision is “disappointing and upsetting”, but insists her main concern is their children’s welfare. Ewan, 46, is now dating his Fargo costar Mary Elizabeth Winstead. JAMES AND OLA JORDAN Hernia op delays dance tour Injury has forced professional dancing couple James and Ola Jordan to delay the start of their UK tour. James suffered a double hernia during rehearsals for the show, which was due to kick off in March,…

Paul Young has lost the woman he once described as, “funny… a little bit wild, a little mad”. Stacey Young, the singer’s wife of 30 years, died last week aged 52 after a two-year battle with brain cancer. “She died peacefully at our home surrounded by family, friends and her four children: Levi, Layla, Grady and Jude,” wrote Paul, 62, on Twitter. A spokesman for the star later released a statement: “The family respectfully ask for privacy at this time.” The couple first met in 1983, when Paul was making a video for his hit Come Back and Stay, and married in Los Angeles four years later. They started a family soon after and in 2015, Paul said in an interview with HELLO! that he preferred to stay at home…

One March evening in 1981, a newly engaged Lady Diana Spencer caused a sensation when she arrived at Goldsmiths’ Hall in London for her first public outing with her fiancé the Prince of Wales. Dressed in a black strapless taffeta gown by Elizabeth and David Emanuel, the 19-year-old former nursery school assistant nervously stepped on to the red carpet to a mass of camera flashes. A royal star was born. Fast forward 37 years and another bride-to-be will arrive at the same venue this Thursday – the latest appearance by Meghan Markle as she embarks on public life alongside Prince Harry. ‘Stepping out on the red carpet — this time as a royal instead of an actress — will be the icing on the cake of Meghan’s fairytale’ EVENING STAR…

‘We couldn’t be happier because we knew it was going to end up this way‘ Princess Eugenie The royal spotlight fell on the Queen’s granddaughter Princess Eugenie last week following Buckingham Palace’s announcement that she and her partner Jack Brooksbank are engaged to be married. The 27-year-old daughter of the Duke of York and Sarah, Duchess of York, has been in a relationship with her dashing 31-year-old beau for seven years, and the love that has grown between them was clear to see when they were interviewed on BBC1’s The One Show after the announcement was released. The bride-to-be told how she burst into tears when Jack proposed during a romantic holiday in Nicaragua earlier this month. Describing the moment Jack asked her to be his wife as…

Despite being one of Hollywood’s most popular stars, Bradley Cooper was happy to leave behind the glitz for the simple pleasures of a day dedicated to fatherly duties. The Guardians of the Galaxy star was spotted on Sunset Beach in Los Angeles with his ten-month-old baby girl Lea de Seine, holding her hands as she walked in the sand and later feeding her a bottle of milk. Model mum Irina Shayk, 32, sat close by, enjoying the happy scene of the two playing. Dressed down in a navy blue flowing shirt-dress, leggings, brown boots and sunglasses, the cover star and Victoria’s Secret model relaxed on the sand. Lea looked entranced to be with her 43-year-old father, pulling playfully at his nose and clambering over him before being carried high on…

Nadine Coyle isn’t one for airing her dirty linen in public, but when it comes to helping out a good cause, the singer is happy to rummage in her wardrobe. Thankfully, sorting through her gladrags for the Give up Clothes for Good campaign – which is raising funds to fight cancer – revealed some happy memories of her time with chart toppers Girls Aloud. “I found a lot of costumes which were stitched on while we were wearing them,” Nadine (right) tells HELLO! . “They’re glittery rags now.” Among her finds, Nadine, 32, dug out a gold dress that she wore on tour with the band, which she will keep for Anaíya (inset below right), her three-year-old daughter with former American football player Jason Bell. The little lady may even…

Known as one of the most versatile models of all time, Kate Moss had no problem showing off a range of vintage ensembles. However, far from coming from some pricey boutique, these creations were straight from Oxfam, chosen from the 136,000 items available at the charity’s online shop. Kate, 44, teamed up with celebrity photographer David Bailey, 80, for a series of images to help Oxfam celebrate 75 years of fighting poverty. “I love a charity shop,” she said. “All these vintage shops, they just go and trawl all the charity shops.” Unsurprisingly after being modelled by Kate, all the pieces from the shoot – including this army-style ensemble – sold out within minutes of the photos appearing. Style mavens are also snapping up tickets for Oxfam’s Fashion Fighting Poverty…

There was plenty of clowning around for Monaco’s youngest royals, Prince Jacques and Princess Gabriella, when Prince Albert treated the three-year-old twins to an afternoon at the circus. Helping the proud dad ensure his little ones had fun at the Monte Carlo International Circus Festival was their aunt, Princess Stephanie, who is president of the annual event. Watching in wonder from the royal box, which they shared with cousins Pauline and Louis Ducruet and Camille Gottlieb, the dynamic duo (above, in the arms of Dad and Aunt Stephanie, with Pauline, left, and Camille, centre) seemed captivated by the acts. “[They] had the best time ever,” Albert said. “They want to go back.” The pair’s outing came after their mum Princess Charlene – who celebrated turning 40 with a quiet day…

Former Cabinet member Dame Tessa Jowell was given a standing ovation – a rarity in the House of Lords – last week after delivering an emotional speech to peers about her battle with an aggressive form of brain cancer. “In the end, what gives a life meaning is not only how it is lived, but how it draws to a close,” the 70-year-old said as she called for better treatments on the NHS. “I hope this debate will give hope to other cancer patients like me. So that we can live well with cancer, not just be dying of it. All of us. For longer.” The Labour peer, a former Culture Secretary, was diagnosed last May after a seizure. She has since had chemotherapy and radiotherapy, but treatment options in…

‘There is an expectation you’re going to be super happy all the time, and one in four of us aren’t’ With less than three months to go before the arrival of her third baby, the Duchess of Cambridge was showing a more visible bump when she stepped out in London last week. And in what some took to be a tantalising hint that she is expecting a boy, Kate wore blue for the second day running. The Duchess looked radiant as she arrived at King’s College London’s Maurice Wohl Clinical Neuroscience Institute, one of Europe’s largest centres for neuroscience excellence, to learn more about the issues surrounding maternal mental health. Kate wore a powder blue coat and patterned dress from her go-to maternity brand Séraphine, with navy Jimmy Choo pumps,…

‘Dearest Eugenie and Jack The Man. When you walk into a room, you bring smiles to the faces of all who meet you. You both exude kindness, love and goodness.

Thank you for always making my day brighter and the laughter and happiness you bring to Papa, Beatrice and myself. The York Family embraces the magic of Jack totally. Exciting times ahead.

Romantic Jack Brooksbank whisked his bride-to-be Princess Eugenie to an un spoilt tropical island in the warm blue Caribbean as part of the holiday that saw him go down on one knee and propose. A castaway’s paradise featuring verdant palm trees surrounded by a ring of powdery white sand, the Nicaraguan island of Calala is an ultra-private, super-exclusive resort with a six-star luxury rating. This tiny emerald jewel, reached only by helicopter or a 90-minute boat journey from the Central American mainland, was the perfect backdrop for the couple – who met seven years ago on the snowy ski slopes of Verbier – to seal their love. On their arrival, the eighth in line to the throne and her boyfriend would have been greeted by the sight of 25 smiling…

‘It was a superb night; a fabulous knees-up with wonderful friends’ When it comes to getting a party started, musician Jools Holland knows how to hit all the right notes, creating perfect harmony at his 60th birthday bash last week. A host of music stars headed the guest list at exclusive London restaurant Boisdale of Belgravia, including Kylie Minogue, Sir Tom Jones, Melanie Chisholm, Sir Bob Geldof and Mick Hucknall, together with Jools’s regular collaborator Ruby Turner. They were joined by comic duo Jennifer Saunders and Dawn French, photographer Mary McCartney and campaigner Jemima Khan. “It was a superb night,” Jools exclusively tells HELLO! . “When you’ve been around for all these years, you get to know lots of people who are extraordinary and it’s lovely when you become friends.…

Use products formulated for your hair. Refining your diet and taking supplements will also boost your hair’s health Let’s debunk some myths around haircare, shall we? First, hair is not self-cleaning and stretching out the time between washes is not beneficial. “Shampooing removes product residue and pollution – it also helps to optimise the condition of the scalp,” says Anabel Kingsley, trichologist at haircare experts Philip Kingsley. Second, your hair does not “get used to” a particular shampoo, so there’s no need to switch what you’re using unless your environment or the condition of your hair changes. And thirdly, blow-drying is not bad for your hair – it’s how you style it thereafter that matters. Heated tools can weaken the hair shaft and styling products can accumulate and even block…

TEA TIME Few rituals are more comforting than making tea. We’re not talking about throwing a bag into a mug, but creating a drink with loose leaves to relax and restore you. At its simplest, loose-leaf teas give you a much tastier cup than a bag. And with many teabags containing plastic, it’s a greener choice, too. Start with the basics: experiment with different flavours, learning how long to steep the leaves to get the strength you love. And the beauty of loose leaf is you can buy the smallest amounts for sampling to find the tea you want. KNOW YOUR TEAS Tea types depend on the process the leaf goes through and not, as most people think, the type of plant. White tea is the least processed of all…

‘We have proven that we are potent and powerful and viable’ Nicole Kidman Hollywood’s top actresses lit up the Screen Actors Guild (SAG) Awards with a dazzling display of shimmer, sparkle and vibrant colour last week. After the midnight couture at the Golden Globes, when black was the colour of choice in a sign of solidarity with victims of sexual harassment, it was time for nonstop glamour with a line-up of vivid show-stopping gowns. Leading the way as she picked up the Best Actress in a Series prize for hit drama Big Little Lies , Nicole Kidman worked the vintage look in a bronze column Armani Privé gown from the 2010 autumn collection. The 50-year-old actress also shone on stage, delivering a rousing acceptance speech. “How wonderful it…

For Mark Wright and Michelle Keegan, the chance to spend Extra time together does not come up often, so who could blame them for making the most of it? Work schedules kept the couple apart for a lot of 2017, but they looked very much together on a relaxed lunchtime outing at The Grove shopping centre in Los Angeles last week (right). Last year Mark moved to the city after landing his dream job on entertainment news show Extra TV , while Michelle was on location shooting BBC drama Our Girl . While not filming, the actress has kept busy hanging out with her husband, going to the gym (left) and with business. “It’s so nice to have time together [with Mark],” she recently said. “My US agent is in…

Approaching full-time with baby number four, Coleen Rooney shows there is no substitute for comfort in the latter stages of pregnancy. Spotted out near her home in Cheshire (left), the expectant mum had swapped her designer togs for black leggings and a matching stretchy top, with a practical puffer jacket keeping out the cold. Coleen’s low-key outing came shortly after she and husband Wayne helped the current baby of the family, youngest son Kit, celebrate his second birthday. In a photo uploaded by his mum, the youngster looked awestruck as he prepared to blow out the candles on his personalised Peppa Pig cake (above right) watched by his equally impressed older brothers Klay, four, and eight-year-old Kai. “Happy birthday to my Baby!!” Coleen wrote on Instagram. “2 today!! What a…

London hotel The Trafalgar St James will be wall-to-wall with celebrities next month thanks to a new exhibition by photographer Dave Hogan. A favourite with everyone from the Rolling Stones to Adele, “Big Dave” has opened his portfolio to showcase previously unseen images. He’s also put some of his work into an online charity auction, each one signed by their famous subject. Many of the snaps were taken on tour with some of the music industry’s biggest names, such as David Bowie, whose Sound and Vision tour in 1990 was covered by Dave. Other faces in the Hogie’s Heroes exhibition, which is open to the public, include David Walliams and Sir Bob Geldof, who said: “His magnificent photographs… tell the stories of our time.” Dave’s prints are on eBay from…

A daredevil pal of Prince Harry is aiming to win a place in the Guinness Book of Records – and raise £1million for the Prince’s mental health charity – on a 14,000-mile cycle ride. Dad of two Dean Stott, 40, a former member of the UK special forces, will swap guns for gears as he aims to cycle the entire length of South and North America in 110 days – seven days faster then the existing record.

‘I never feel sexy. I have hang-ups about my appearance and if I am naked on a job, I always feel awkward and exposed’ Jamie Dornan is talking about his co-star in the eyebrow-raising Fifty Shade s films Dakota Johnson. “She does this thing,” he says, chuckling affectionately about his good friend, “when she laughs. She tries to hide it, but the truth is she has a snort laugh. I think we all do that sometimes, but when Dakota is really tickled, she does it aggressively. And then she can’t stop.” It’s not the first activity that springs to mind in connection with the famously steamy S&M romps between Anastasia Steele and her former boss and lover, Christian Grey. Based on the best-selling books, Fifty Shades Freed – the final…

She plays an ice queen, but Margot Robbie was full of emotion last week following her first Oscars nomination. The 27-year-old star (right) was partying after the Sydney premiere of her new film I, Tonya when she heard she was shortlisted for Best Actress. “Someone plugged the phone into the DJ deck so it went around the whole room, so loudly, and then everyone in the room just started screaming and crying,” she said. There were celebrations in the UK too, following the news that three out of the five contenders for Best Actor were British. Leading the pack is Gary Oldman for his performance as Winston Churchill in Darkest Hour – his second Academy nod in a near 40-year career. In…

Kate Moss showed typically très-mendous style as she stepped out in Paris.

A wide-brim fedora and a Hermès Birkin bag ensured she carried off the relaxed look perfectly. Lifestyle: SHOPPING • BEAUTY • WELLBEING • RECIPES • TRAVEL…
