She’s one of the world’s hottest young models and he made his name in the biggest boyband on the planet so Gigi Hadid and Zayn Malik must have had plenty to discuss on a night out together. And they also gave the rumour mill something to talk about by holding hands as they left Hollywood restaurant The Nice Guy, confirming reports that they have started dating. They certainly looked a couple, wearing matching outfits of black jeans and a top – Gigi hinting at her Victoria’s Secret model figure with a crop top vest underneath an RTA biker jacket – while the former One Direction heart-throb sported lighter locks. The pair, who have been seen together several times over the last few weeks, are both single after splitting from long-term…

The sound of laughter was ringing out around Windsor Castle as two of the UK’s top comic actors – Sir Lenny Henry and Martin Clunes – were honoured by the Queen. Unable to stop smiling, Sir Lenny, who co-founded Comic Relief, which has raised more than £1billion in its 30-year history, proudly displayed his knighthood for services to drama and charity (with Martin). “This was not on the cards for me. I’m a working-class kid from Dudley,” said the actor, who is officially Sir Lenworth – he was named after the doctor who delivered him. “For me to be here is a huge honour and completely unimaginable.” Meanwhile, Men Behaving Badly actor Martin minded all his Ps and Qs as the Queen invested him with his OBE (right) for services…

After a life on the ocean wave, former naval officer the Duke of Edinburgh got a taste of what goes on beneath it at a screening of Sir David Attenborough’s latest nature series, Great Barrier Reef . As guest of honour at the event at London’s Australia House, Prince Philip was greeted warmly by the TV veteran (above right) before the opening credits rolled. The two men share a passion for conservation and over the years are thought to have become firm friends, with Sir David – who, at 89, is almost five years younger than the royal – once describing Philip as “formidable” and “a considerable intellect”. Due to start on BBC2 later this month, the three-part series sees the award-winning broadcaster return to the reef he explored on…

She had just made her debut as Fanny Brice, starring alongside Darius Campbell in a new production of Funny Girl (above), but there was nothing staged about Sheridan Smith’s happy smile as she was joined by one of her greatest supporters – Amanda Holden. The actress and the Britain’s Got Talent judge (together left) were celebrating the show’s opening night at the Menier Chocolate Factory in London and laughed happily together as they posed for photos at the after-party. Tweeting her appreciation, Amanda called Sheridan’s performance “outstanding”, adding: “Wonderful cast and production.” Sheridan says the part, made famous by Barbra Streisand, was her “dream role”, adding during rehearsals: “I’d have kicked myself for the rest of my life had I not done it.”…

Courteney Cox cut a solitary figure as she stepped out in Los Angeles without her engagement ring (above). The Cougar Town star had replaced her diamond ring with a plain gold band after reportedly splitting with her Snow Patrol guitarist fiancé Johnny McDaid (left, with Courteney in April). The Londonderry-born musician, who was introduced to Courteney in 2013 by their mutual friend Ed Sheeran, is said to have moved out of the 51-year-old actress’s Los Angeles home after ending their 18-month engagement.…

SIR BRUCE FORSYTH Pulls out of Strictly festive special Showbiz legend Sir Bruce Forsyth has pulled out of hosting Strictly Come Dancing’s Christmas special for health reasons. The 87-year-old star, who had keyhole abdominal surgery last month, hasn’t recovered fully enough to commit to the busy filming schedule, the BBC said last week. “Due to the long studio hours, he is unable to host the show, but will still play a part in the production,” the BBC said in a statement. Sir Bruce, who stepped down from hosting the show last year, will instead record a video message to be aired during the Christmas Day episode. He was diagnosed with an aortic aneurism – the swelling of the main blood vessel that leads away from the…

Watching his stunning bride make her way up the candlelit aisle was the realisation of a dream for Kelvin Fletcher. “I knew I wanted to marry Liz the day I met her. Deep down I knew she was The One,” the Emmerdale actor Kelvin told us, speaking of his long-time love, Elizabeth Marsland. “The image of Liz coming towards me up the aisle will live with me for ever. She took my breath away. She looked so beautiful,” he added. The couple, who knew each other when they were children but only got together when they met again around ten years ago, tied the knot in a magical ceremony at London’s One Mayfair, transformed for the occasion with hundreds of candles and arrangements of white roses and hydrangeas. “We did…

There was more than one type of carol in evidence at this year’s Christmas concert for the Henry van Straubenzee Memorial Fund, where the Duke of Cambridge (below) was joined by fellow supporters including his mother-in-law Carole Middleton. Along with his brother Prince Harry, Prince William is co-patron of the fund, set up in memory of their friend, who died in a car crash in 2002. He is also a regular at the annual concert at St Luke’s Church in Chelsea, London. “We are both delighted to be patrons of Henry’s memorial fund,” wrote the royals in the concert’s programme. “Each year brings with it more news about the progress this charity continues to make.” The two brothers met Henry at Ludgrove prep school in Berkshire and Prince William has…

It’s that time of year when the winter woollies come out for a festive fundraiser as a host of celebrities urge viewers to put good taste to one side and pull on their most garish knits. Ant & Dec (far left), Alesha Dixon, Caroline Flack and Amanda Holden are just some of the stars to don a patterned pullover for the Text Santa appeal, ITV’s annual charity telethon to raise money for Macmillan Cancer Support, Make-A-Wish UK and Save the Children, while Michelle Keegan (above right) appears in a special Text Santa Downton Abbey sketch. “We all have a great history together – we’ve known each other for many years,” Alesha (left) says of the presenting team. “Amanda and I, for example, are very close friends. There’s that instant rapport…

There was only One Direction for Ellie Goulding to take after her split from Dougie Poynter and it was a positive one. The singer teamed up with boyband star Niall Horan, who she once dated, for this backstage photo at the annual Jingle Ball in Dallas (right) and her Starry Eyed smile suggests she’s already well on the way to putting her heartache behind her. Ellie has reportedly decided to take a break from her long-term romance with McBusted star Dougie (below, with the On My Mind singer in October) after they struggled to juggle their hectic schedules. “Their work commitments have meant they have been spending more and more time away from each other and it has made it difficult to maintain their relationship,” said a source. Work is…

Gazing at the carcass of a female rhino killed alongside her two-year-old calf, both poached for their horns, Prince Harry’s distress was visible. The royal, whose tour of South Africa to date had been focused on children, turned his caring attention to the plight of animals as he joined environmental crime investigators at the sad scene in South Africa’s Kruger National Park. “This belongs to South Africa and it’s been stolen by other people,” Harry said of the fallen creature. “And the body’s left here, wasted, just for…” His voice trailed off, lost for the words that would express his feelings of sadness and frustration. Harry was told that the mother rhino had been gunned down and the male calf, who would not leave her, was shot dead before she…

British tennis no. 1 Andy Murray is the hot favourite to win this year’s BBC Sports Personality of the Year after securing Britain’s first Davis Cup victory in 79 years. He won two singles matches and also the doubles with his brother Jamie as Britain beat Belgium 3-1 in the recent final of the annual team competition. “It’s incredible that we managed to win,” said Andy, 28, who had been cheered on by his wife Kim, who is expecting the couple’s first child in February. The Scots star won the BBC honour two years ago and victory at the 20 December event – which will be televised live from Belfast’s SSE Arena – would make him only the fourth person to win it twice. The other nominees for the coveted…

The career of South African author Wilbur Smith has spanned five decades and his 36 novels have sold more than 132 million copies worldwide. Aged 82, he continues to write and he and his wife Niso have now launched a foundation to support new writers In 1963 I was working as an assessor in the tax department in Southern Rhodesia, the territory now known as Zimbabwe. The job was a soul-destroying grind and at the time I was desperate to find a way to break out of my cage. I had just discovered rock climbing and was taking regular weekend trips to climb the granite kopjes that are so much a part of the Rhodesian landscape. The granite walls are sheer and smooth and offer few good handholds. It was…

With her hosting duties on The X Factor sister show The Xtra Factor , it’s been a hectic run-up to Christmas for Rochelle Humes. But with the hit series reaching its finale this weekend, the Saturdays singer is keen to make the most of the festive season and spend plenty of time with her husband, former JLS singer-turned-presenter and DJ Marvin and their adorable two-year-old daughter Alaia-Mai. “I’m like a child and now I have a little girl I can pretend I’m doing it all for her when really I’m just as excited as she is. I’m a massive Christmas fan and my house will be like a grotto,” the presenter and designer tells HELLO! . And she doesn’t need to worry about what will be waiting for her under…

No one knows better than Monaco’s royals how to infuse a good cause with glamour. So when Princess Stephanie hosted this year’s Fight AIDS Monaco fundraiser, it was no surprise that she was flanked by two of the principality’s most stylish young couples: her newlywed nephew Pierre Casiraghi and his wife Beatrice; and her eldest son Louis Ducruet, who was making his first public appearance alongside his girlfriend Marie. The Princess, who’s long been at the forefront of the fight against AIDS, couldn’t have looked any prouder as the next generation took up the standard at the Monte Carlo event. Meanwhile, in Rome, Stephanie’s sister Princess Caroline spent the evening with her teenage daughter, Princess Alexandra, amid the chic surroundings of the Chanel Métiers d’Art show. But if this particular…

With the stores and shelves groaning under the weight of so many cosmetics sets and baskets full of bath and body products, a personalised present will really stand out from the Christmas gift crowd. It doesn’t have to cost a fortune, but where do you start? Easy to order and buy, monogrammed make-up bags are a fun option, as are mascaras and nail polishes personalised with initials. If you know your loved one’s favourite fragrance, you can really make it their signature scent by having the bottle engraved in store with their name or initials. A number of perfume houses are offering personalised flacons this Christmas. Burberry will etch up to three initials for free onto bottles of its My Burberry fragrance, while Guerlain has created Mon Exclusif, its first…

FOR MY STEPDAUGHTERS My two stepdaughters love festive embellished Markus Lupfer knits, available at Harrods. I thought they might have tired of these, as I tend to give them pretty regularly, but it seems the appeal of a Christmas jumper never wears off. FOR THE MAN IN MY LIFE If your man is one of a kind, why not go down the vintage route for a one-off gift? An unusual cocktail shaker, hip flask or a beautiful backgammon board are great conversation pieces. I love Alfies Antique Market in London, eBay and Etsy for fab and unusual finds. Instagram OF THE WEEK Here I am looking through fashion designer Luisa Beccaria’s fabulous dress collection for some shoot research. How happy would I be if Father Christmas…

Chart-topping singer Paloma Faith will be sprinkling stardust over this year’s festive TV schedules as who else but Tinker Bell. “It’s been my nickname for most of my life,” laughs Hackney-born Paloma of her role in Peter and Wendy , ITV’s magical reinterpretation of Peter Pan . “It was a pet name for me as a kid.” After landing the role in the Boxing Day show – which stars Hollywood’s Stanley Tucci as Captain Hook – the 34-year-old was told her Tinker Bell would be “sassy, with bags of attitude” – hardly a leap of faith for the famously offbeat star. “I was playing myself,” she laughs. “I can have quite a bossy streak so I just tapped into that. It was good because everything Tinker Bell says that is…

Andrea Caamaño and David Insua Andrea and David tied the knot under a centuries-old tree in a romantic ceremony at El Pazo de Cores in Galicia, northern Spain.

Dame Shirley Bassey looks perfectly at home posing for our photoshoot amid the grandeur of the 18th-century William Kent House in iconic London hotel The Ritz – but then this is where the legendary Welsh diva always stays when she is over from Monte Carlo. She is also very comfortable in the company of dashing vocal trio Blake – Ollie Baines, 33, Humphrey Berney, 35, and Stephen Bowman, 35 – with whom she’s about to release a career-first Christmas single. It’s something the star from Tiger Bay in Cardiff has always wanted to do “It’s a first for me after 60-odd years in the business,” laughs Dame Shirley, as she sips her favourite tipple, pink champagne. “I have to thank these boys because without them I would never have done…

Christie Brinkley was on a real high when she visited the Empire State Building to light it up in red and blue for the US’s annual Giving Tuesday charity day and the Give a Smile Get a Smile fundraising initiative launched by charity Smile Train. The supermodel, author and entrepreneur braved extremely blowy conditions as she stepped out on the 1,453ft building’s observation deck (above) and, despite having to hang on to the hem of her short cream shift dress and her cap, she managed to make it all look a breeze. Posting a series of photos taken during the landmark visit, Christie, 61, said it had been a “hem and hair-raising event”. The mum of three is a goodwill ambassador for Smile Train, which offers life-changing surgery to children…

Plenty of famous people are known for liking the odd cigar but it seems none is a match for Jonathan Ross, as he proved at the Snow Queen Cigar Smoker of the Year dinner. Attending the ceremony at Boisdale in Canary Wharf, London, with his son Harvey, the chatshow host walked off with the top accolade and looked delighted with his prizes, which included boxes of cigars, a hamper of goodies and a glass trophy (below right, with Boisdale MD Ranald Macdonald). He joins a roll call of previous winners that includes Duran Duran singer Simon Le Bon and Hollywood star Arnold Schwarzenegger. Jonathan has made no secret of his penchant for puffing – he was once photographed smoking a cigar in his car – but he was not the…

Helping to make it a day to remember, Cate Blanchett joined forces with Pirelli to launch its 2016 calendar. In something of a red letter day for the Italian tyre firm, the calendar is its first to feature models of all ages who have been chosen for their social and cultural significance rather than purely for their looks – and the majority of them appear fully clothed. Among 2016’s calendar girls are artist Yoko Ono, singer Patti Smith, Russian model Natalia Vodianova and Wimbledon champion Serena Williams, all shot by photographer Annie Leibovitz. Speaking at a special launch event in London, Cate (right) told a star-studded audience, including Geri Halliwell, Livia Firth and some of the models: “Pirelli is reminding us that women are grand and spectacular, diverse and fascinating…

Ever since HELLO! online revealed in a world exclusive how a small Spanish baby-clothes boutique had supplied the floral frock worn by Princess Charlotte in her newly released photos (left), parents around the world have been clamouring to get hold of the dress. We disclosed how the pretty patterned cotton frock worn by the Princess in the first official photos of the royal baby since her christening had come from the shop m&h, which has five branches in Spain.

Her husband is an award-winning country singer but the usually elegant and sophisticated Nicole Kidman seems to have embraced punk. The Australian actress was captured on the London set of her new film How to Talk to Girls at Parties , in which she plays a failed fashion designer turned band manager alongside Ruth Wilson and Elle Fanning. With her red locks covered by a two-tone wig, the Oscar-winning star strutted down the road in a jaunty punk rock outfit, created by fellow Academy Award-winner Sandy Powell. Nashville-based Nicole, 48, who has just finished a run in the West End, starring in the play Photograph 51 , has been staying in the UK with her husband Keith Urban and their daughters Sunday, seven, and…

Charlotte Tilbury played a key role at Amal Clooney’s lavish wedding last year by doing the bride’s make-up throughout the four-day event. Last week, the pair were reunited as Charlotte threw a celebrity-filled party at London’s Covent Garden to launch her new flagship beauty boutique. Mingling with the fashionista crowd, human rights lawyer Amal drew praise for her stunning silver two-piece – a vintage Lanvin crop top and culottes, dating back to 1967 but very on-trend for this season. She teamed the outfit with a pair of pointy silver shoes and gold chandelier earrings. Leaving her husband George at home, she was joined for Charlotte’s “naughty” Christmas party by her equally glamorous mother, Baria Alamuddin. The famous partygoers also included the likes of actress Salma Hayek, who was with husband…
