If there’s one person who feels totally at home being a mum, it is Stacey Solomon. And that is exactly where she was when she gave birth to her fourth child, a baby daughter (below) with fiancé Joe Swash (right). Known for her tidying tips, the singer and Loose Women star could not have organised it better, welcoming the latest resident of Pickle Cottage on her own birthday, with Joe by her side. “Happy birthday my darling daughter,” Stacey, 32, wrote on social media, alongside a series of photos of the newborn. “We all love you more than you could ever imagine. Your brothers, your daddy and I are so in love. Thank you for the most incredible 9 months. Now we cannot wait for the rest of our lives…

Before making history, King Philippe and Queen Mathilde’s eldest child will spend the next three years studying it – along with politics – for her degree. In photos shared on the Belgian royal palace’s official Instagram account, Elisabeth, who turns 20 next week, appeared to be making the most of student life as she explored the historic campus during Fresher’s Week, getting acquainted with the university’s Bodleian library (below left) but also relaxing with fellow students on a punt on the River Cherwell (below right).

The Duchess of Cambridge visited University College London last week to support a major new five-year study of child development. Kate met researchers leading the Children of the 2020s study, which will investigate the effect on children of their home environment, community, early years services and their families’ social and economic circumstances. “Our early childhoods shape our adult lives,” she said ahead of her visit. “Knowing more about what impacts this critical time is fundamental to understanding what we as a society can do to improve our future health and happiness. “The landmark Children of the 2020s study will illustrate the importance of the first five years and provide insights into the most critical aspects of early childhood, as well as the factors which support or hinder positive lifelong outcomes.”…

In her first interview for five years, Adele has opened up about her personal life, giving fans an insight into her divorce and her body transformation. In a wide-ranging interview with Vogue magazine ahead of this week’s release of her new single Easy on Me, the 33-year-old singer said she and former husband Simon Konecki, a charity executive, had drifted apart and she needed to put herself first. “It just wasn’t right for me any more,” she said. “I didn’t want to end up like a lot of other people I knew. “I wasn’t miserable miserable, but I would have been miserable had I not put myself first. But, yeah, nothing bad happened or anything like that.” She added that the 2019 split features on several songs on her forthcoming…

Dame Helen Mirren was the star of the show as she made a striking appearance at Paris Fashion Week. The 76-year-old actress gave models less than half her age a run for their money as she strutted the catwalk showcasing a bold new look. With the Eiffel Tower behind her, Dame Helen appeared to be channelling her inner punk as she took to the runway in a crystal embellished monochrome Azzaro suit, towering platform sandals and heavy black eye make-up. “I’m English, I can do this,” she said, as the rain started pouring ahead of the L’Oréal show, which marked the 50th anniversary of the L’Oréal slogan “Because you’re worth it” and aimed to celebrate women’s empowerment. AIMING HIGH Proving she can still carry off a pair of heels, she…

MOTHER AND SON This was a moment in March this year when families could see each other for the first time as the pandemic restrictions eased, so it was really special to photograph mother and son together in the grounds of Frogmore House, a place with so much royal history. I had photographed them planting a tree and I was asked to go on with them to take a portrait in the gardens and somebody said: “Lead the way.” I realised I was leading the royal convoy to a location I had only briefly visited beforehand. I looked in my wing mirror and there was the Queen, the head of the Commonwealth, driving behind me and the Prince of Wales driving the car behind. It struck me as quite a surreal…
