Giving her own take on the Strictly Come Dancing theme, dancer Oti Mabuse tweeted her delighted reaction to the news that big sister Motsi is joining her on the BBC’s hit show. “Yayyyy!!!! Da da da dadada daaaaa-da dada da da,” she wrote on Twitter, after discovering the 38-year-old former German Latin champion and South African champion would be taking over from Dame Darcey Bussell on the judging panel. Head judge Shirley Ballas was quick to welcome her new fellow judge, who will join her alongside Bruno Tonioli and Craig Revel-Horwood later this year. “Thrilled to welcome the fabulous @MOTSI_MABUSE to the @bbcstrictly family. What exciting news! We are going to have a ball, and you’re going to love every second xx” she tweeted. Oti’s fellow dancer Aljaz Skorjanec was…

She may be more at home in the Hollywood Hills these days, but Catherine Zeta-Jones is still a Valleys girl at heart – as she demonstrated on a special trip to her native Wales last week. The Hollywood star was in her home town of Swansea to receive the Freedom of the City, something she described as “a real honour”. Arriving at Swansea’s Guildhall, she was accompanied by her actor husband Michael Douglas and their son Dylan, 18, the trio posing for photos – and Catherine signing autographs for fans – before heading into the council chambers. Michael was later spotted filming the ceremony. Only the second woman ever to receive the honour (below) – recognising her “ambassadorial role for Swansea and her services to film and charity” – Catherine…

More than 20 years after her debut single Torn was a worldwide hit, Natalie Imbruglia is looking forward to a different kind of number one, having announced that she is expecting her first child. The singer and former Neighbours star shared double good news with fans last week: she posted photos that clearly show she is pregnant (left) and announced that she is also celebrating a new record deal after writing new songs over the past year and a half. “I’m very happy to announce that I’ve just signed a record deal with BMG!!” she wrote on Instagram. “And as you can see from the pic there is another announcement… (no I haven’t swallowed a watermelon). I’m expecting my first child in autumn.” Previously married for five years to fellow…

There was something more than a little familiar about Damian Hurley’s chosen outfit for a beauty launch in London last week. Keen to make an impression, the 17-year-old son of Elizabeth pinned his hopes on a Versace suit (far right) that reminded fans of the dress worn by his mother 25 years ago. Damian amped up his striking resemblance to his mum by replicating her signature glossy blowout hairstyle, too. The young model recently scored his first major ad campaign as the face of makeup artist Pat McGrath’s Sublime Perfection The System foundation range and was attending the product launch at Selfridges. Posting beforehand, he wrote: “So excited to show you guys something secret I’ve been working on with the divine Pat McGrath.” One person who could not be prouder…

Sir Michael Palin is to undergo heart surgery to fix a leaky heart valve. Writing on his website, the 76-year-old actor and TV presenter said doctors had discovered a problem with his mitral valve, which stops blood flowing the wrong way around the heart, during a routine check-up five years ago. He said: “Until the beginning of this year it had not affected my general level of fitness. Recently, though, I have felt my heart having to work harder and have been advised it’s time to have the valve repaired. “I shall be undergoing surgery in September and should be back to normal, or rather better than normal, within three months,” he added. Sir Michael has also cancelled a UK book tour in October to promote North Korea Journal ,…

Kate’s style has become more sophisticated as her responsibilities have grown, but she continues to exude an easy elegance that many women are eager to emulate. She also continues to experiment with designs that may include a bit of risk-taking. The Stella McCartney dress at Archie’s christening is quintessential Kate, but with a twist. It is a frock she has worn in the past, but re-created in a new fabric, showing a nuanced but significant step – the Duchess going her own way and having an old design updated to meet her new specifications. Her Sandro Paris dress at the Hampton Court Garden Festival also shows Kate’s expanding style horizons. It is an on-trend brand, worn by the likes of model Gigi Hadid, and while the midi dress stays true…

The Duchess of Cambridge seems to be making more fabulous fashion choices lately. Her styles are becoming bolder and some are making quite the statement, which can only mean the Duchess has grown in confidence and is well aware of her role as a fashion-forward royal. More than ever, she is mixing high street brands with cool designers, which means she is gaining a real interest in what she wears – from the fabrics and the quality to textures and overall style. Castañer, for example, whose espadrilles she’s worn, is an inexpensive brand but their quality is second to none and it is great she recognises this. I absolutely loved the Alessandra Rich dress she wore to Bletchley Park. The cut is exquisite and it was fabulous the way it…

Flying can wreak havoc on your skin, leaving you looking and feeling less-than-refreshed on landing. “Flying can cause swelling, dehydration and water retention,” says aesthetic doctor Maryam Zamani, founder of skincare range MZ Skin. Besides resisting alcohol, fizzy drinks and salty snacks on-board – sip water instead and move around the cabin – Maryam’s beauty tips will help you arrive for your holiday with a glow. Fill your bag with rich hydrating products to fight the lack of humidity in the cabin when you’re flying ■ Before applying any hydrating skincare products, it’s important to cleanse. “I don’t recommend putting anything on top of make-up as it will not penetrate the skin,” says Maryam. “Instead, it will sit on top of debris and make-up and may even increase skin sensitivity…

Back in Manchester with her sons for the summer holidays, Coleen Rooney showed that life as a high roller in the US has not gone to her head: she was spotted out and about with her hair in curlers (right). No stranger to making waves with her fashion and beauty choices, the mother of four kept her look low key in leggings, a snake-print T-shirt, plus a Chanel bag. Coleen could not be happier about how well her boys have adjusted to life Stateside following the family’s move to Washington last year, when footballer Wayne joined his new team, Major League Soccer side DC United. She recently uploaded a group shot (left) of her sitting on a garden step with Kai, nine, 17-month-old Cass, Kit, three, and Klay, six. “Summer…

No doubt they were hoping for a speedy delivery, but either way former Formula 1 driver Jenson Button was in pole position for the title of most delighted dad after his fiancée, model Brittny Ward, gave birth to their first child last week. The couple sent fans into overdrive by posting a first look at their baby boy – albeit only his tiny toes (top right). “He’s here, he’s healthy and our hearts couldn’t be more full,” read the caption on Brittny’s Instagram Story, which was reposted by Jenson. Their son’s arrival comes just weeks after Jenson, 39, and 29-year-old Brittny were due to get married, with Brittny noting on Instagram: “Today would have been our wedding date in Italy, but in a few weeks we will be mummy and…

He showed off his football skills a few weeks ago, enjoying a public kickabout with his sister Princess Charlotte on a family day out at the polo. And footy-crazy Prince George proudly wore three lions on his chest as he posed in his England shirt for two of three photographs released to mark his sixth birthday last week.

Kate has been upping the fashion ante of late and her outfits have not gone unnoticed in the style stakes. The Duchess appears to be undergoing a makeover to consciously choose younger and more modern clothes. This was definitely the case at Archie’s christening, when she abandoned typical royal headwear for one of the biggest accessory trends of the season – a padded headband. Also, her clashing pink and red are one of the biggest colour combos at the moment, seen on the catwalks at Valentino and Brandon Maxwell, so it seems Kate is tapping into the trends and actively making more fashion-savvy decisions. Coupled with her exciting accessory choices is the way she is wearing more cutting-edge designers. From championing British labels such as Emilia Wickstead and Alessandra Rich…

As she prepares to celebrate her 38th birthday on 4 August, the Duchess of Sussex can look back on quite a year. The past 12 months have been full of significant moments, not least the birth of her and her husband the Duke’s first child, Archie, on 6 May. Their son was born at London’s Portland Hospital weighing 7lb 3oz and was christened in the private chapel of Windsor Castle on 6 July. But that hasn’t been the only change. She has also moved in to her forever family home, relocating from Nottingham Cottage in the grounds of Kensington Palace, where she and Prince Harry had been living since becoming engaged, to Frogmore Cottage on the Windsor Estate. The grade II-listed building was remodelled from five apartments back into a…

Standing on the steps of 10 Downing Street and waving to fans, Boris Johnson last week fulfilled his childhood dream of becoming Prime Minister (right). The day after the Conservatives revealed Boris had been elected their new leader, he headed to Buckingham Palace to meet the Queen (above), who officially invited him to form a government. He reportedly said Her Majesty had told him: “I don’t know why anyone would want the job.” In his first speech as PM, he promised to leave the EU by the 31 October deadline, cut NHS waiting lists, make the streets safer and improve education. “The time has come to act, to take decisions, to give strong leadership and to change this country for the better,” he said. “My job is to serve you,…

After spending eight years on our TV screens in EastEnders as formidable Ronnie Mitchell, Samantha Womack is no stranger to bringing challenging characters to life. But as she embarks on the West End run of the touring stage production of The Girl on the Train , adapted from Paula Hawkins’s bestselling book, the Brighton-born actress tells HELLO! that playing protagonist Rachel Watson could be her most satisfyingly gritty role yet. “Rachel definitely tops Ronnie as the most damaged character I’ve ever played,” says 46-year-old Samantha. An emotionally unstable alcoholic, Rachel finds herself in the middle of a dark mystery when the woman she obsessively watches through the window of her commuter train suddenly disappears. “Ronnie was semi-coherent. She was damaged but maintaining a normal existence. But Rachel is completely at…

‘It’s been a birthday to remember. I can truly feel the love from all of you’ It’s not every day that you turn 50, so when Jennifer Lopez marked her milestone birthday at a party surrounded by friends and loved ones, it was little wonder it was a solid-gold knees-up. The lavish celebration was held during a rare night off from Jennifer’s It’s My Party tour and was held at the home of her friends Gloria and Emilio Estefan on Star Island in Miami. Joining the birthday girl, who wore a bespoke gold Versace chainmail dress with buckled straps, were stars including DJ Khaled and singer Ashanti, plus Jennifer’s fiancé Alex Rodriguez and 11-year-old twins Max and Emme, who treated their mum to a rap and a song.

As one of the original supermodels, Naomi Campbell is used to wiping the floor with her catwalk competition. But when she travels by plane she doesn’t stop there – opting to wipe pretty much everything else, too. While other travellers are putting on their flight socks, for Naomi it’s a pair of surgical gloves and mask (below). The model revealed her extreme preflight checks in a video posted on her Being Naomi YouTube channel last week, in which she is seen disinfecting “anything you could possibly touch” with some antibacterial wipes. “I do not care what people think of me. It’s my health and it makes me feel better,” she said. After attaching her own seat cover, she then put on her mask. “This is my protection against people’s coughing…

Speculation about her romance with actor Jamie Foxx is rarely out of the news, but there is no doubting the closeness of the other significant relationship in Katie Holmes’s life: the bond with her 13-year-old daughter Suri. And it seems the pair are not just the best of friends, frequently seen out and about together, but yoga buddies, too. As New York sweltered in the summer heat last week, Katie and Suri – the actress’s daughter from her marriage to fellow star Tom Cruise –kept their cool in low-key exercise gear, sipping takeaway drinks en route to a yoga studio (right and left). The star of TV miniseries The Kennedys: Decline and Fall has previously revealed that she is a big fan of Bikram yoga, which is practised in a…

Her stylish appearance at the christening of nephew Archie Mountbatten-Windsor this month sealed the Duchess of Cambridge’s transformation into one of our most fashion-forward royals. Poised in a dusty pink Stella McCartney dress, teamed with scarlet Gianvito Rossi stilettos and a chic red headband adapted from a Juliette Botterill pleated pillbox hat, 37-year-old Kate proved she is becoming ever more sartorially confident as a style-savvy fashion queen. ‘Kate’s made some bold fashion choices recently. She’s very much a modern princess’ Over the past few months, royal watchers have noticed that the Duchess – already a style icon – is becoming more daring with her choice of outfits, swapping former trusted labels and brands for choices that are much more experimental. From glittering Jimmy Choo pumps to her impeccably stylish Elie…

I think the Duchess of Cambridge is having a lot of fun with her style. She seems so happy and confident in what she wears, which I love and is very inspiring. It has been very exciting to see Kate wear our fern hoop earrings (inset left). We do notice an increase in sales after she wears our jewellery. We had a 400% rise in traffic to our website and we’ve seen an uplift in orders from the UK and all over the world – a 530% increase. The earrings are one of my favourite designs so it is very special that they are also a favourite of Kate’s. And by re-wearing them, she is also giving a nod to more sustainable fashion, which is something we totally agree with.…

He is known for his natural rapport with children and is now a doting dad to baby Archie, so when the Duke of Sussex visited youngsters at Sheffield Children’s Hospital last week, he was in his element. ‘Harry was really good with the children. He was really approachable’ Noah Nicholson, who turns two this week, was captivated by Prince Harry’s beard and gleefully reached out to give it a tug. The little boy has spent most of his life in hospital after being born prematurely at 27 weeks and seemed delighted to meet the royal visitor. “Have you never seen a beard before?” joked Harry before telling Noah’s mother Tracy: “He is being well behaved.” The excited toddler promptly took off his shoe and threw it away before hitting Harry…

In a sea of conservative workwear, Carrie Symonds’s pink dress stood out as she watched her partner Boris Johnson deliver his first speech as Prime Minister outside 10 Downing Street. Although the public relations specialist stood discreetly to the side, her style won the votes of those watching and her £120 dress, from high street store Ghost, sold out almost immediately. Such attention is unlikely to go away. At the age of 31, Carrie is stepping into the spotlight alongside Number Ten’s newest occupant, 55-year-old Boris. The daughter of journalist Matthew Symonds, who co-founded The Independent, and Josephine McAffee, one of the paper’s lawyers, Carrie grew up surrounded by talk of press and politics. She gained a first-class degree in art history and theatre studies at Warwick University, but started…
