Adriana Iglesias has fashioned a dream life for herself. Listening to her play piano at home in her magical Valencian palazzo, where she creates clothes that celebrities love, it seems she’s managed to sidestep hard reality. Not at all. Adriana is a former telecom engineer, who left a well-paid job to invest “everything I had and everything I didn’t have” in her new career. Just as the music floating ethereally through her home now is the result of endless hours of childhood music lessons, her business success is down to sheer grit and determination. CREATING A NEW LIFE At 37, Adriana was ready for a change of direction. By then, she had years of telecom experience, and while she still enjoyed the travel her work involved, the excitement had long…

It’s fair to say that when Priyanka Chopra and Nick Jonas celebrated the Hindu festival Holi, things got messy. But that was exactly the point. Keen to enter into the spirit of the annual event, the couple joined friends in Los Angeles and daubed one another with brightly coloured chalk and paint (left). Sharing the fun with fans on Instagram, the Indian actor posted several photos, one of her puckering up (right) to kiss her husband of three years. “To be able to find some joy at a time when the world feels so scary is such a blessing,” she wrote in the caption. “Happy holi everyone. Feeling blessed.” Priyanka and Nick have more reason than ever to feel blessed this year as their Holi-day came just months after announcing…

‘Can I come and work for you? It’s my kind of thing’ William On the first full day in Belize, the Duke and Duchess got to grips with grinding cacao nibs as they visited the family-run Che ’il chocolate farm. Kate, in a blue patterned dress by Tory Burch, matching earrings from Sézane and her favourite Stuart Weitzman wedges, tried her hand at the job, traditionally carried out by women in rural communities. Then, watching her husband pound the nibs with a pestle and mortar made from volcanic rock, she said: “The smell of the chocolate is amazing.” William joked to owner Julio Saqui: “Do you take apprentices? Can I come and work for you? It’s my kind of thing.” TOP OF THE COCOA POPS The couple looked delighted as…

‘It was billed as a thank-you to the people of the Queen’s Caribbe an realms for their support throughout her remarkable 70-year reign, and as royal editor I was there to cover it all for HELLO!. As well as the usual royal tour staples of walkabouts, dancing and ceremonial welcomes, the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge’s whirlwind eight-day visit involved far more complex issues, not least Jamaica’s intention to cut ties with the monarchy. They were prepared to tackle it head on, as William did in a speech in Kingston, and I saw people welcome them with excitement on the ground, showering them with genuine warmth and affection. There were small but vocal protests, but they did not derail the tour and, if they put the Duke and Duchess in…

Kate looked elegant in a white lace dress by Alexander McQueen and a matching hat by Philip Treacy as she arrived with the Duke in uniform to attend a military parade on the final day of their Jamaica tour William and Kate were guests of honour at the commissioning parade for service personnel, with the Duke acting as reviewing officer and offering his congratulations in a speech to those who had recently completed the Caribbean Military Academy’s Officer Training Programme. He told them: “I have stood to attention myself on many parades as you do now, proud of my accomplishments, yet also hoping that the reviewing officer keeps the speech short. This is all the more important today as we bask in the glorious Jamaican sunshine! “You all stand before…

‘I wouldn’t have missed today for the world’Katherine Jenkins A “beautiful service for a beautiful lady”, is how Katherine Jenkins described the thanksgiving service held for Dame Vera Lynn at Westminster Abbey last week. Taking her seat beside Dame Vera’s daughter, Virginia Lewis-Jones, the mezzo-soprano called it a “huge honour” to attend the memorial. “And the blue skies were very appropriate,” she told HELLO!. “I mentioned it to Virginia: ‘Blue skies for Dame Vera. Exactly as it should be.’” The abbey was “full of love for Vera”, as celebrities Alan Titchmarsh, Jonathan Dimbleby, Sir Tim Rice and Anthony Andrews joined Katherine to remember the wartime singer, who died in June 2020 aged 103. Also among the congregation were family, friends and other famous faces from TV, including Christopher Biggins, Bonnie…

‘Our very own team at HELLO! were honoured to get a letter from none other than the Queen’s assistant private secretary last week, who sent a message of thanks after our editor in chief, Rosie Nixon (inset above), penned a note of congratulations to Her Majesty on the occasion of her Platinum Jubilee this year. What’s really wonderful about a letter like this is that it demonstrates Her Majesty’s standards – you thank people, you have good manners – and it shows that she really does lead from the top. For me, HELLO! magazine is about good news – it’s uplifting and positive and it’s always been consistent. I feel really honoured and blessed that she will be reading our magazine to see our coverage of the Jubilee. If I…

Tip: Double denim is back. Look to Pernille Teisbaek and Emily Ratajkowski for instant affirmation…

It was the place where they made one of their first public appearances as a couple. Three years later and now married with a six-month-old daughter, Princess Beatrice and her husband Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi last week returned to Bahrain to attend the Formula 1 Grand Prix alongside her sister Princess Eugenie and husband Jack Brooksbank. Both young mothers put in stylish pit-lane appearances, fitting in perfectly with the glamorous crowd at the event, which saw Ferrari driver Charles Leclerc snatch victory while British multiple world champion Sir Lewis Hamilton came third in a thrilling finale. A DESERT ROSE Beatrice, 33, in a beautiful rose-printed midi dress by Australian label Zimmermann, smiled widely as she posed for photographs alongside her property developer husband. The brand is clearly a favourite choice for…

No stranger to putting jaws On the Floor with her outfits, Jennifer Lopez delivered high-octane glamour at the iHeart Radio Music Awards where, watched by an audience that included her actor partner Ben Affleck, she was named this year’s icon. Posing with her award on the red carpet, the singer, actor and businesswoman played the green card in emerald velvet Roberto Cavalli (left). After promising: “I’m just getting started,” she sang her 2005 hit Get Right (below). And no one cheered harder than Ben, in the front row with his son Samuel, ten, and Jennifer’s 14-year-old daughter Emme. With the couple reported to be buying a $55m Bel Air mansion, their rekindled romance appears stronger than ever – never more so than when they were pictured out on a romantic…

There were tens all round when Strictly Come Dancing professionals Nadiya Bychkova, Katya Jones and Kai Widdrington joined forces with ex-contestant Dan Walker (all above) and other famous faces to raise money for a dedicated Motor Neurone Disease Centre at Leeds Hospital. Held at Headingley Stadium, home of Yorkshire County Cricket Club and rugby league side Leeds Rhinos, the event was also attended by Dan’s BBC Breakfast co-presenter Sally Nugent, Emmerdale star and former Strictly champion Kelvin Fletcher, and Line of Duty’s Nigel Boyle. But guest of honour was ex-Rhinos legend Rob Burrow, who was diagnosed with the disease in 2018 and in whose name the centre will be built. He was accompanied on the night by wife Lindsey and their children Macy, Maya and Jackson (all left). Ahead of…

Just before their fourth birthdays, all three of my children were diagnosed with autism, which makes them process information and think and see the world differently. Their hypersensitivity to sound and anxiety in unfamiliar places means forward planning is vital. So just stepping on a plane, where vibrations and noise are magnified, is a big challenge. The first and only time we took them on a plane, for a long weekend to Spain, preparation also entailed boarding a stationary aircraft to get them used to how it looks inside. Before we go on holiday or a day out, we have to put in place a strategy way before we are going so our plans run smoothly. This includes showing my children pictures of places we’ll visit and hotels where we’ll…

The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge made waves in the Caribbean last week on a whirlwind tour of Belize, Jamaica and the Bahamas. Prince William and Kate were on dazzling form as they took in the sights, sounds and vibrant colours of each country, dancing with children, exploring in the jungle and showing off their famously competitive sides in a sailing race. In the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee year, they were following in Her Majesty’s footsteps in many places and made a point of thanking the nations for their support throughout her remarkable 70-year reign. William told of his grandmother’s affection for each country, having discussed the tour with her at length and heard her memories of visiting each nation. Crucially, he also spoke out on important issues, addressing the “abhorrent”…

Hailing the “crucial” role of teachers in shaping society by nurturing young people, Kate was in her element as she joined a classroom in Kingston, Jamaica and showed a keen interest in pupils as she sat with them at a table. The visit by William and Kate came on day five of their Caribbean tour, after earlier being welcomed to Jamaica House in the capital for a meeting with Prime Minister Andrew Holness and his wife Juliet, who is also an MP. The Duchess told student teachers at Shortwood Teacher College in Kingston: “You, as teachers, are at the front line of this work and play a crucial role in shaping our societies by positively impacting the futures of literally thousands of young people over the course of your careers.”…

Co-founder and chief executive of fashion and lifestyle brand Mint Velvet Liz Houghton had lived in her arts and crafts house in a Buckinghamshire village for nearly 20 years before starting renovations six years ago. Now clean lines and fuss-free rooms fill her once-traditional country home with light and a modern twist, while still respecting the original features. A simple colour palette of off-whites and muted greys are present throughout – echoing the laid-back ease of her designs. It’s the perfect space for her and husband Richard and their children Tom, 25, and Sophie, 20. (Their eldest child, Will, died six years ago at the age of 20 in a cycling accident.) How long have you lived there and has it been a labour of love to get it to…

Revealing a blossoming baby bump under a tight-fitting dress, Leona Lewis looks overjoyed as she announces she’s going to be a mum. The Bleeding Love singer confirmed the happy news that she and husband Dennis Jauch are expecting their first child in the summer with a post on Instagram last week. “Can’t wait to meet you in the Summer,” Leona wrote, adding a heart emoji. Dennis shared the same photo on his page, writing: “Biggest gift I could’ve asked for coming this Summer. You’re one hot a** Mama @leonalewis”. The baby announcement comes almost three years after the couple married at Sting’s villa in Tuscany, Italy in a romantic ceremony exclusively covered by HELLO!. London-born Leona, 36, who found worldwide fame after winning The X Factor in 2006, now lives…

It’s a small world, and for anyone visiting Disneyland California last week, the chances of bumping into a chart-topping singer and a supermodel were surprisingly high. On a visit to the theme park, Rita Ora was joined by Kate Moss. And the pair (together right) were all ears as they chatted, laughed, enjoyed the attractions and posed for photos. Rita and Kate have been friends for some time and are often photographed on nights out together. The singer signed to Kate’s talent agency in 2018 and has described them as a “dream team”. She has previously said: “Kate has always been a mentor and lifelong friend.” Sharing a photo dump from her Disney adventure on social media (left), Rita revealed: “I had the time of my life at Disney land…

Her wedding last year was a lowkey affair, but as Binky Felstead prepared for the blockbuster sequel – to take place in Corfu in August – the former Made in Chelsea star gave fans a sneak peek of her dress rehearsal, while keeping the final choice under wraps. Uploading photos from her bridal-wear shopping session (right and bottom), she told her Instagram followers: “It took loads of beautiful dresses to finally find the one… here are a few I adored whilst searching,” revealing that she had said “I do” to two designs. Binky and Max Fredrik Darnton tied the knot last July, seven weeks after welcoming baby Wolfie, their first child together. Watched by close friends and family – including Binky’s four-year-old daughter India – the ceremony took place at…

Commonwealth to light up for the Jubilee Jubilee beacons will be lit in the capital cities of all 54 Commonwealth countries in June as part of the celebrations to mark 70 years of the Queen on the throne. Plans announced last week reveal that more than 1,500 fires will blaze across the UK alone, with the principal beacon located at Buckingham Palace. The beacons will be lit on the evening of Thursday 2 June – exactly 69 years since the coronation – with the first ones being fired up in Wellington, New Zealand and Canberra in Australia before nations in the Pacific and Asia, followed by Europe, the Caribbean and the Americas take their turn. Bruno Peek, pageant-master of The Queen’s Platinum Jubilee Beacons, said the event celebrates the organisation…

‘It’s surreal to hold my baby, who’s not a baby any more’ Four days after her emotional reunion with seven-year-old daughter Gabriella and husband Richard after six years of imprisonment in Iran, Nazanin Zaghari-Ratcliffe described in her first press conference since her release the “precious” feeling of being back with her family. “I’d been waiting for that moment for such a long time, and I was overwhelmed,” she said. “It’s surreal to come back and to be holding my husband and baby, who’s not a baby any more. “It’s been a tough journey,” said the charity worker, who was detained in Tehran on false spying charges. “Coming back to a daughter who’s nearly eight – I left her when she was not even two. There’s a whole lot to catch…

Touching down in Belize after an 11.5-hour flight on the RAF Voyager from Brize Norton, the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge stepped out into blistering 30?C sunshine – flying the flag for the Queen in their first tour since the pandemic began. Prince William and Kate were all smiles as they were greeted on the tarmac by Governor General Froyla Tzalam and her husband Daniel Mendez, the Duchess elegant in a striking sapphire blue dress by Jenny Packham, reflecting the deep blue of the Belizean flag. William, in a pale-blue suit, stood on a dais to inspect a guard of honour as a military band played. Their eight-day tour of the Caribbean began in earnest as they travelled into Belize City to meet Prime Minister Johnny Briceno and his wife…

‘They are doing an awesome job representing Her Majesty’ In a striking canary-yellow dress by Roksanda, echoing the gold of the Jamaican flag, the Duchess of Cambridge jetted to Kingston, Jamaica with the Duke to begin the second leg of their Caribbean tour. Emerging from RAF Voyager, they were greeted with a full ceremonial welcome at Norman Manley International Airport by a line-up of dignitaries, including former Miss World Lisa Hanna from the People’s National Party, Opposition leader Mark Golding, senator Kamina Johnson Smith and chief of the defence staff Rear Admiral Antonette Wemyss Gorman. The royal couple were visiting the island nation to mark the 60th anniversary of its independence, as well as the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee. Despite growing calls for change from a constitutional monarchy to a republic,…

‘As the Queen marks 70 years on the throne, this is also a very special year for Jamaica, as you celebrate your 60th anniversary of independence… Anniversaries are also a moment for reflection, particularly this week with the International Day of Remembrance of the Victims of Slavery and the Transatlantic Slave Trade. I strongly agree with my father, the Prince of Wales, who said in Barbados last year that the appalling atrocity of slavery forever stains our history. I want to express my profound sorrow. Slavery was abhorrent and it should never have happened. While the pain runs deep, Jamaica continues to forge its future with determination, courage and fortitude. The strength and shared sense of purpose of the Jamaican people, represented in your flag and motto, celebrate an invincible…

Casually leaning on a white parasol, the Queen gazes skywards as something catches her attention during her tour of the South Pacific in 1982. Her Majesty and the Duke of Edinburgh, in a loose shirt and straw hat, look charmingly casual as they step out of the Princess Margaret Hospital in Tuvalu, the large blue flower on the monarch’s hat cheerfully accessorising her outfit. The latest in our series of relaxed photos celebrating the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee was taken in October 1982, 30 years into her reign, when she and Prince Philip spent almost the entire month touring Commonwealth nations in Australasia, including Australia, Fiji, Papua New Guinea and the Solomon Islands. As monarch of the tiny island nation, Her Majesty certainly received a warm welcome in Tuvalu. She and…

Elle Macpherson GET THE LOOK Supermodel Elle Macpherson nails transitional dressing as she leaves London’s Dr Barbara Sturm Boutique & Spa, teaming corduroy trousers from Isabel Marant with a cream jumper, embroidered cowboy boots, aviator sunglasses and lashings of gold chain jewellery.

Coming from a family of successful dancers – her parents, Keith and Judy, are former world champion Latin American dancers and her older brother Kevin was a Strictly Come Dancing professional – osteoarthritis was not on Joanne Clifton’s radar. However, after being diagnosed in 2015, the former world ballroom champion went on to win the 14th series of the BBC1 dance show with partner Ore Oduba in 2016. Working with Arthr, a brand that designs products for those living with arthritis, Joanne is keen to dispel the myth that osteoarthritis is only for old people. “Don’t be embarrassed if you’re a younger person and you’ve got it,” she says. “It’s something so many of us live with and at any age.” We caught up with the 38-year-old, who is starring…
