She may be known for being Hot Right Now but Rita Ora was staying cool last week in a Gucci floppy hat bearing the label’s monogram motif. Taking time out from recording new music at the rented Cotswolds farmhouse where she has been staying with friends since before the lockdown was introduced, Rita posed in the beautiful gardens (left). Sharing the resulting photos on Instagram, the singer wrote: “Make it feel like work never left…” adding a padlock and key emoji. Earlier in the week, the star had made tracks for Paris with a close friend, The Only Way is Essex’s Vas J Morgan, travelling to the French capital by Eurostar and doing some brief sightseeing at the Sacré Coeur. Rita’s channel hop came shortly after she paid tribute to…

She may be the toast of Hollywood, but Oscar-winning actress Charlize Theron has found that her toughest critics are a little closer to home. “I am, it turns out, not a very good maths teacher,” laughs the star, who has been home schooling daughters Jackson, nine, and August, five, during lockdown. “That’s what Jackson says, anyway. It was a very profound moment in my life when she turned to me and just said: Mom, I don’t think you’re very good at teaching this.’ That was the most stressful thing as a parent because, all of a sudden, I felt this responsibility to make sure my children weren’t falling behind in their education.” Charlize, 44, adopted both daughters alone – Jackson from her native South Africa and August from the US.…

THE QUEEN On winning form at Newmarket The Queen was celebrating after her horse Tactical won the Tattersalls July Stakes racing festival in Newmarket. Tactical, who last month won the Windsor Castle Stakes at Royal Ascot, beat the hotly tipped Yazaman into second place. “It’s fantastic for us to have a horse as good as this for Her Majesty,” said trainer Andrew Balding. “It’s really exciting and rewarding.” BIANCA WILLIAMS Met Police apologise to athlete British sprinter Bianca Williams has been given an apology from the Metropolitan Police after she and her fellow athlete partner Ricardo dos Santos were stopped and searched while driving in London. The 26-year-old Team GB star accused the officers of racially profiling her Portuguese 400m record-holder boyfriend for driving a black Mercedes. She said: “It’s…

Sarah, Duchess of York has led tributes to HELLO! ’s legendary royal correspondent Judy Wade, who died last week aged 81 after a brief illness. The veteran journalist reported on royal births, deaths and marriages and crossed the globe on royal tours for more than four decades, forming close bonds with many of the people she wrote about. Sarah told HELLO! : “Judy was such a strong character and she pulled off that most difficult of feats: being admired and respected both by her journalistic peers and those she was writing about. “It’s incredible to think that she covered the royal family for 27 years for HELLO! . “I got to know her after my engagement [to Prince Andrew, in 1986] and over many years that followed found that she…

‘It’s amazing how everyone pulled together’ The Duchess The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge joined a very special tea party to toast 72 years of the NHS last week. Prince William and Kate met front-line workers at Queen Elizabeth Hospital in King’s Lynn, Norfolk, to thank them for their dedication during the Covid-19 crisis. And they met a mother whose emotional reunion with her young daughters after two months apart went viral last month. A video of Suzie Vaughan, 43, surprising her daughters Bella, nine, and Hettie, seven, after nine weeks working away from her family, melted hearts around the world. Suzie, an operating department practitioner in an intensive care unit, said of her daughters: “They both always wanted to meet a real-life Princess.” The Duchess, who wore a smart…

‘The contestants have to prove they are much more than a pretty face and are encouraged to get out in their communities and do good’ It’s usually a glittering event where brains, beauty and good causes come together for an evening of glamour. But for the first time ever, the Miss England semi-finals are going virtual as organisers overcome the challenge of coronavirus. Rather than gathering at a stately home, up to 40 contestants will connect with judges via video link and this month’s event will be streamed live online, with HELLO! as media partner. “After much deliberation, we decided the best way forward was to run the contest online,” says organiser Angie Beasley. “It’s certainly going to be interesting.” While beauty pageants of the past focused on contestants’ swimwear…

After four glorious years, this will sadly be my last column for HELLO! so in a bid to bow out in style, I thought I’d make this week as pink and as “Tabitha” as I possibly could. You can never have too much pink in your life – or too much gingham. They’re both totally brilliant things that bring me great happiness and joy and I think it’s important to always take little risks in fashion and in life. Fendi’s Promenade platform sandals (2) are simply fabulous; a glorious statement that, as we come out of lockdown, are a justified investment. Sure to complete any outfit this season, they’re perfect paired with everything from jeans to your favourite summer dress or a silk shirt – Jenni Falconer’s choice of a…

Change comes down to a moment – the moment you decide to just do it. Pick a lane and don’t overthink it. When you decide you’re never going back, you have no choice but to move forward. Life’s going to be brilliant and desperately painful whichever lane you’re in so you may as well choose to be happy, to comfort yourself with healthier stuff and to stop blaming other people for your problems. ‘Keep things practical, try and combat each negative thought with a positive one’ That moment really can be today. Now, in fact. And before you say anything, I understand the reasons why not because I’ve made mistakes and I’ve fallen – and fallen hard. I’ve blamed other people and used the excuses and while this may be…

When Vogue Williams revealed to HELLO! in March that she was expecting her second baby with husband Spencer Matthews, she also said she hoped to be whisked off to Venice for a restful babymoon. Coronavirus may have scuppered those plans, but the model, DJ and TV presenter, who is due to give birth later this month to a sister for 22-month-old son Theodore, tells us all is not lost. “We’re going to Cliveden House this weekend,” she exclusively tells HELLO! . “We weren’t sure we’d be able to go because we thought the baby might have come by then and they’ve just opened. “I am dying to go away and I was going to take Theodore, but we’re going to leave him with my auntie,” she adds. “We’re delighted to…

She may have starred in the must-watch drama of 2020 but like many Normal People, Daisy Edgar-Jones (left) just wants to spend her summer evenings relaxing over a drink with her partner and friends. Daisy and Game of Thrones actor Tom Varey, 29 (sitting on the extreme right, above), took advantage of the recent relaxation of social distancing guidelines to meet up with pals in the beer garden of a London pub. Currently the toast of the small screen after her role as Marianne in the adaptation of Sally Rooney’s bestseller, the 22-year-old actress has plenty to celebrate – if only she had the chance. In a recent interview with Vogue , Daisy said she was “desperate” to meet co-star Paul Mescal (who played Connell) to share the phenomenal success…

‘So happy to be out on the town!’ Penny Lancaster Sir Rod and Lady Stewart joined the millions toasting “Super Saturday” as the UK welcomed the reopening of restaurants, bars and pubs in a countrywide celebration. The couple drank cocktails at private members’ club Annabel’s in London’s Mayfair, turning heads in their glad rags – Rod rocking monochrome while Penny stunned in a pink satin midi dress. Looking as pleased as punch to be sipping on cocktails at the exclusive venue, Penny shared highlights of their night out on social media, posting a selfie captioned: “Celebrations of hair cuttings. So happy to be out on the town! Cheers and stay safe.” Similarly adapting his business for its reopening that weekend was celebrity chef Michel Roux Jr, whose prestigious London restaurant…

Actor Johnny Depp and his ex-wife Amber Heard have thrown a series of sensational allegations at each other during a libel case in the High Court in London. Johnny, 57, is suing News Group Newspapers over an article in The Sun in April 2018 that called him a “wife beater”. He has strenuously denied claims he was ever violent to the 34-year-old Justice League star, who divorced him in 2017. News Group says the article was true and accurate, citing 14 alleged incidents of domestic violence as part of its defence. In one written statement to the court, Amber claimed she was subjected to “a three-day ordeal of physical assault which left her with injuries including a broken lip, swollen nose and cuts all over her body”. Denying the allegation,…

‘I was in the best band in the world. And the Beatles are still relevant to the next generation’ He had expected to celebrate becoming the first Beatle to turn 80 with a star-studded concert outside Hollywood’s Capitol Records building, promoting peace and love around the world. However, Covid-19 put a stop to that and Sir Ringo Starr passed his birthday in Beverly Hills in a much quieter fashion. Joined by his wife Barbara Bach, the musician posed for photographs beside the giant silver sculpture he has donated to the city showing a hand making the peace sign. If relatively alone, Sir Ringo – born Richard Starkey – was far from forgotten. Fellow Beatle Sir Paul McCartney took to Instagram to wish him: “Happy Birthday SIR RICHARD alias RINGO. Have…

Actress Ana de Armas turned boho chic up to the max as she walked her dog Elvis in Santa Monica, where she has been isolating with boyfriend Ben Affleck since the pandemic hit. The Cuban-born Knives Out star bloomed in an embroidered maxi dress by Brazilian fashion label Farm Rio – featuring a tie-front closure with a beaded tassel, empire waist and tiered skirt. Gucci aviator sunglasses, Havaianas flip flops and Cartier jewellery completed her breezy bohemian style.…

1 “Apply sunscreen 15-30 minutes before exposure and then again shortly after heading outdoors to cover any missed patches and to make sure you’re wearing a sufficient layer.” 2 “Your sunscreen should be topped up every two hours or sooner if you’ve been swimming or towelling off. You need six full teaspoons for your whole body if you’re in a swimsuit. If you’re in the city, apply SPF to exposed skin as the last step in your skincare routine, before you put on your make-up.” 3 “Many of us don’t want to start from scratch and remove our make-up every couple of hours for a top-up, so sunscreen mists or sprays, such as Garnier Ambre Solaire Sensitive Advanced Hydrating Face Protection Mist SPF50 [£6, from boots.com] are a great option…

Not everyone can say they’ve arm-wrestled Arnold Schwarzenegger or persuaded Sylvester Stallone to share a story he hasn’t told in 45 years, but this is all in a day’s work for presenter Jenny Powell. Before lockdown, the TV favourite was touring the country hosting An Experience With – a series of exclusive black-tie evenings for a live audience, in conversation with some of the planet’s biggest movie stars. After 35 years in show business, which has seen her work on Top of the Pops, the game show Wheel of Fortune and Loose Women, Jenny tells HELLO! she has found her “dream job”. ‘Stars like Arnie and Sly have been around for so long so I try really hard to dig deep and find those little things they’d be astounded that…

There is only one rule in polite English society, but it is iron clad. Of course, polite English society is a fiction. For one thing, its members are rarely polite. Politeness is for the middle classes rather than those who live off ancestral acres of English soil. The rule remains, however: never complain, never explain and never apologise. Generations of small boys are sent away from home to have this beaten into them and the girls learn it anyway. Diana Pole had grown up knowing that every morsel of food she ate belonged to her brother, although he was much younger than herself and not as intelligent. As small children, Diana and Henry had been evacuated with their widowed mother to a cottage on their grandfather’s estate in Wiltshire. There…

‘She’s a force of nature. It’s awe-inspiring to see the way she handles herself at this time’ Strolling barefoot in the sand, Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom look blissfully in love as they count down to the birth of their first baby together. The pop star and her actor fiancé, who are expecting a daughter this summer, enjoyed a romantic walk on the beach in Santa Barbara, California. Linking arms and chatting, they looked happy and relaxed strolling in the sun. Katy covered her bump in a wool poncho and wore a straw visor to keep the sun off her face, while Pirates of the Caribbean star Orlando was shaded by a straw hat. Katy had a face mask at the ready under her chin, while Orlando’s bandanna doubled as…

Model Petra Nemcova does not need to worry about getting the perfect beach Bodhi – she already has one, in the shape of her eight-month-old son. Last week, the sustainability champion treated Bodhi to some beach time – and her fans to sweet family photos – with her entrepreneur husband Benjamin Larretche at their second home on the Dominican Republic’s Samana Peninsula. Uploading a smiling mother-and-son shot (left), Petra wrote in the caption: “Bodhi’s first summer. He’s so excited to finally connect with the grounding sand and the cleansing sea. Nature has the power to heal us.” Her son was born on the Caribbean island in November, arriving six weeks prematurely and beginning what Petra called “a new and beautiful chapter for me”. Despite his dramatic start, the youngster looked…

Visiting a holiday destination that offers guests a chance to try traditional crafts, there was no doubting the heritage of 23-year-old Princess Iman of Jordan as she took part in activities including basket weaving and embroidering scarves (above left) with her mother Queen Rania. The resemblance between the smiling pair was obvious for all to see – as was their closeness – during their time at Beit Al Baraka bed and breakfast, in a village almost 70 miles north of the country’s capital Amman. Mother and daughter were promoting sustainable tourism and stopped off at another location, Beit Al Ward, where Rania, 49, tried stone carving (left) and an Eid cookie baking session, besides other Jordanian dishes, at Galsoum’s Kitchen restaurant (above). Uploading a video and photos to her Instagram,…

Nobody knows what the Endgame will be, but Lily James and Avengers star Chris Evans fuelled relationship rumours last week when they were spotted eating ice creams in a London park. Recognisable in spite of their face coverings (left), the stars strolled side by side before chilling out on the grass (above). Chris, 39, was first seen with Lily three days before, when the pair reportedly left Mayfair private members’ club Mark’s in a taxi and headed to the Corinthia hotel, where the Hollywood star was staying. According to reports, they used different entrances but Lily, 31, was carrying one of the hotel’s bags in the park. The Yesterday star’s most high-profile romance to date was with The Crown’s Matt Smith, with whom she reportedly got back together during lockdown.…

‘We must now realise the promise of America by trusting God, unifying our vision and building our future. I am running for President of the United States’ Kanye West (left) reveals White House ambitions – though he later backtracked ‘There were times they wanted to kill me and I wanted to kill them’ Home schooling was a tough ride, says jockey Frankie Dettori ‘I have to work so hard at not being the size of a bus… That is my karma. I don’t know, maybe I was thin and mean in a past life’ Drew Barrymore says she needs more than a (Santa Clarita) diet to stay trim ‘I didn’t want to be put in a position where I was objectified. That just didn’t feel good’ A role in Charlie’s…

She’s used to bringing glamour to the stage and Saturday night TV, but singer Pixie Lott proves she can still pull off star style in even the most surreal circumstances, as she poses with a large glittering V on a red carpet in her back garden. The 29-year-old is celebrating the return of The Voice Kids UK, and is thrilled to be continuing as a coach for the hit ITV show’s fourth series, alongside fellow mentors Will.i.am, McFly’s Danny Jones and new addition Paloma Faith, as they seek out Britain’s next young singing sensation. HELLO! caught up with Pixie – virtually – at the show’s online press launch, where the Mama Do singer told how lockdown has allowed her to find her voice online again. “Just before lockdown I had…

It wasn’t only the Boghossian Silk Mardin necklace that made Rihanna stand out at the latest British Fashion Awards. The 32-year-old singer gave a lesson in modern glamour with soft make-up and cornrows. As the creator of Fenty Beauty, her flawless look is no surprise – Rihanna says she fell in love with foundation the very first time she wore it. “I loved it.
