The striking royal was the centre of attention She always makes a dazzling entrance, but Princess Charlene of Monaco was on particularly sparkling form as she attended this year’s 69th Red Cross Ball. The 39-year-old mother of two set a shining example to fashion fans in a strapless silver sequinned jumpsuit by Atelier Versace, its hourglass shape perfectly suiting the former Olympic swimmer’s toned and athletic figure. With her cropped blonde hair sculpted into a loose quiff and her smoky eyes, the striking royal was the centre of attention as she arrived hand in hand with husband Prince Albert. The Prince kept things more conservative, wearing a white dinner jacket and shirt with a red bow tie for the annual fundraiser in the Salle des Etoiles of Monte-Carlo Sporting. Built…

Few things can shock a Loose Women presenter but Andrea McLean let viewers in on a real surprise last week. Speaking on the show, Andrea announced her engagement to her boyfriend of three years, businessman Nick Feeney. He proposed on the Pont des Arts in Paris on a short trip to the City of Love – and Andrea couldn’t believe it. “It took about five minutes of, ‘Really? You’re asking me?’” she told her fellow panellists as she flashed her sparkling engagement ring (left). “We’d mentioned it but it was not on the cards at all,” said Andrea, who has been married twice before. “Now I can say I know what this is supposed to feel like. It feels lovely. I get it now.” Sharing the news on Twitter, Andrea…

There was no chance of Sir Elton John letting the sun go down on this year’s family summer holiday after his recent illness. Exploring Sardinia last week with husband David Furnish and their two sons Zachary, six, and Elijah, four, the family enjoyed yacht trips, paddleboarding, and shopping in Porto Cervo (left) with the singer cutting a sunny figure in a bright shirt and Gucci trainers. Sir Elton, who spent two nights in hospital after contracting a serious bacterial infection in April, proved he’s still standing, posting a picture on Instagram of him hand in hand with his sons at the luxury Hotel Cala di Volpe on the Costa Smeralda (above). “And away we go….!” he wrote. The trip is a well-needed break after the Rocket Man, who turned 70…

‘This moment is going to be cherished. I’m more excited than you can imagine’ He has been longing to be back in the arms of “the person that means more than anything to me”. And last week Mark Wright’s wish came true when he was finally reunited in the UK with his beautiful actress wife Michelle Keegan, after work had forced them apart for several months. The pair enjoyed some summer downtime together near their home in Essex before the TV and radio presenter reveals what he promises to be “some very exciting news” . Strolling arm in arm, the couple appeared thoroughly loved up and wore similarly casual chic looks; Michelle in a navy jumpsuit, navy trainers and with her hair in a topknot, and Mark in a sparkling-white…

PREGNANT JESSICA IN THE PINK IN NEW YORK Less than three weeks after revealing she is expecting her third child with husband Cash Warren, actress Jessica Alba stepped out in New York showing a hint of a baby bump under her Tanya Taylor dress (left). The Dark Angel star announced her pregnancy on Instagram, posting a video of her daughters Honor, nine, and Haven, who turns six on Sunday, and herself holding up balloons in the shape of the numbers one, two and three. She wrote: “@cash_warren and I are officially going to be outnumbered #babyonboard.” Jessica flew in to the Big Apple with her two girls and was spotted at the airport wheeling the family’s luggage – with the girls’ dolls perched precariously on top…

The BBC has brought out the big guns by enlisting Mary Berry and Claudia Winkleman to take the reins of new BBC show Britain’s Best Cook. What a power duo! Mary, queen of the kitchen, heads the judging panel – the hunt for a second judge is still ongoing – and Claudia, Strictly Come Dancing host extraordinaire and the BBC’s most highly paid female, will take on presenting duties. The series, which unsurprisingly aims to find Britain’s best cook (it does what it says on the tin, hey? I don’t think it took the bosses long to come up with a title for this one), will see contestants go head to head to serve up classic British dishes such as roast beef or chocolate pudding, with a different challenge each…

JK ROWLING Named world’s top-earning author JK Rowling has topped the Forbes list of highest-paid authors with earnings of more than £72million in the past year. It is the first time she has topped the chart in almost ten years, beating Dan Brown, Stephen King and John Grisham.

CASEY AFFLECK Oscar winner to divorce wife Manchester by the Sea star Casey Affleck and his…

HOME FROM HOME Considering getting close to nature, but don’t want to ditch your creature comforts? These new glamping tents (above, left and right) offer hotel-style luxury in the great outdoors. Chill out in style, with king-size beds, built-in kitchens, there’s even a spa on offer - but they can set you back a whopping £50,000. Meanwhile, for the more traditionally-minded, charming Cotswolds home Molly’s Lodge, dubbed “England’s smallest castle”, went on the market last week. With its turrets, battlements and mullioned windows (left, right and below), the castle’s credentials are impeccably regal: it was built in 1834 by architect Edward Blore, who oversaw Queen Victoria’s expansion of Buckingham Palace in 1850.…

‘I worked for luxury brands. It introduced me to a world that I am passionate about’ She has always had a passion for the world of fashion and now, in a dream come true for Georgina Rodríguez, she has been signed to one of the most prestigious modelling agencies in Spain, the same firm that represents top model Bar Refaeli. It has been a long-held goal of 23-year-old Georgina to become a professional model. She grew up in Jaca, in the Spanish Pyrenees, close to the border with France, studied and worked in London and then moved to Madrid. Just a year ago she was quite unknown, living in the Spanish capital and going to work every day at Gucci, in the centre of the Milla de Oro, an exclusive…

I’ve always wanted beach hair – you know, Gisele Bündchen’s long waves (left) that go so perfectly with a bikini body. What I usually end up with is a frazzled topknot – but at least I know how to fake the best beach look with the right haircare. I love a keraSWIFT treatment with Zoltan, the hair texture guru who does pop-up days in two salons in London. He offers formaldehyde-free semipermanent straightening that takes the frizz, fluff and flyaway from your hair for three months – so that’s summer sorted. Visit zoltan-hair.com.

‘If one day I’m all black, I’m still a model. If one day I’m all white, I’m still a model. I am not my skin. I am a model with a skin condition’ Winnie Harlow is a fashion icon and global supermodel like no other. She made her name when she was discovered by Tyra Banks on America’s Next Top Model in 2014, has appeared in Beyoncé’s visual album Lemonade and fronted campaigns for fashion brands including Diesel, Nike and Desigual. But that’s not what distinguishes her among models; Winnie is also the world’s most famous sufferer of vitiligo, a pigment disorder that causes her skin to become white in patches. Speaking at a TED ideas conference in 2015, Winnie – who was diagnosed aged four – explained: “When I…

Like many people , Tara Newley Arkle has lost loved ones to cancer. Her father, actor, singer and songwriter Anthony Newley, and her aunt Jackie Collins both died from the disease. Now writer, presenter and campaigner Tara has joined forces with a UK cancer charity that had impressed Jackie before her death – the writer had asked mourners to donate to Bristol-based Penny Brohn UK, which supports people with cancer and their families. Tara says: “Cancer devastates – we all know someone touched by it. I greatly miss my amazing dad and aunt. Their passing has galvanised me to live healthily and do my bit to fight the disease, so I started researching Penny Brohn and decided to visit. I was delighted to see how it changes lives and to…

It’s always good to have some sisterly support when you go shopping, as Kendall Jenner and her half-sister Kim Kardashian West proved when they joined forces for a shopping trip in New York last week, setting off from the elder sibling’s apartment. As usual, they turned heads, with Kim, 36, wearing a tight, sheer black tank top and cut-off camouflage shorts – “my camo vibes”, as she called her outfit (above) on Twitter – while model Kendall, 21, teamed a spaghetti-strap ruffled dress with knee-high black suede boots and a safety-pin earring (right). They checked out Search & Destroy and Metropolis, stores in the Big Apple’s East Village that sell punk and vintage clothing. Photographed while browsing the rails (left), the duo were focused on their style quests, temporarily removing…

‘I get opportunities that most people my age don’t get’ Brooklyn It was a family affair when the Beckhams turned out in force last week to support the eldest of the younger generation of the talented clan. Brooklyn was joined by ex-footballer dad David and his three younger siblings, Romeo, 14, Cruz, 12, and Harper, six, as he signed copies of his photography book, What I See , at the Barnes and Noble store in Los Angeles. Wearing jeans and a white shirt and hat, David kept a low profile as he sat at the back of the room with Harper on his lap and his two other sons nearby. However, he couldn’t help but smile proudly as Brooklyn chatted to his adoring fans and signed copies of…

‘Teaching kindness to your children should be your No. 1 priority as a parent’ Giovanna, 32, an author and hellomagazine.com  blogger, is married to McFly singer Tom Fletcher. They have two sons, Buzz, three, and Buddy, one. Her first non-fiction book, Happy Mum, Happy Baby, was published earlier this year. Tom and I were reading to our two sons the other evening. Buddy was lying back on Buzz’s shoulder, who began to stroke his hair. It was a lovely moment, seeing him care for his little brother like that. For me, teaching kindness to your children should be your No. 1 priority as a parent. You should always want your children to share, empathise and connect with other children. Caring, sharing, nurturing, being sensitive to other people’s feelings…

‘If we regard the Queen’s reign as a success, he is the joint author of it’ Gyles Brandreth For almost 70 years, the Duke of Edinburgh has served as the consummate royal consort. Loyal, steadfast and devotedly fulfilling his role in his own special style, Prince Philip has been a constant, reassuring presence at the Queen’s side. But last week, he made his final appearance in the line of royal duty. Sporting a bowler hat and raincoat, Philip, 96, cheerfully braved a downpour to greet Royal Marines gathered in the Buckingham Palace courtyard. It was a fitting finale for the former naval officer, who has carried out 22,219 solo engagements since the Queen acceded to the throne in 1952 but has now officially retired from carrying out a…

‘It truly feels as if the stars have aligned. It just feels right’ ‘I wouldn’t be 20 again for all the tea in China. I love being the age I am’ She rode high in the charts in the 1990s and early 2000s, enjoying a string of hits including Perfect Moment and On the Radio . But it’s been 15 years since Martine McCutcheon was in the recording studio, so it’s no wonder she’s relishing every moment of her return to the industry, which this week sees the release of her new album, Lost and Found , the lead single of which is Say I’m Not Alone . “It feels like I’ve come home,” the 41-year-old exclusively tells HELLO! . “It truly feels as if the stars have aligned and…

Not only did he win the US Masters in April but he is now blissfully happy after marrying his soulmate, American sports journalist Angela Akins. Witnessed by 80 close friends and family, the couple married at Angela’s family’s ranch in Texas. And for the bride and groom’s first dance, to Christina Perri’s A Thousand Years , Sergio wore the green jacket traditionally bestowed on the Masters winner, which he teamed with a tie and shoes in the same colour.

Victoria’s Secret Angel Vita Sidorkina looked truly heavenly on her wedding day. The model married property developer Valerio Morabito (together, left) in front of famous friends including Tamara Beckwith and husband Giorgio Veroni, who brought children Violet and Vero (below). The ceremony in Ravello Cathedral on Italy’s Amalfi Coast was followed by a lavish reception at the Belmond Hotel Caruso, an 11th-century former palace overlooking the Mediterranean. And the sparkling sea views weren’t the only captivating sight as Vita made the aisle her catwalk, turning heads in a two-for-one Zuhair Murad gown; the full overskirt detached to reveal a slim-fitting, lacy dress for the reception (right). “Yesterday was a true fairy tale...” Vita wrote on Instagram next to a photo of her first dance with Valerio. “I married the man…

He’s used to taking a spin on the dancefloor, but now reigning Strictly Come Dancing champion Ore Oduba is dancing on air following the news last week that his wife Portia is expecting their first child. “Not sure what I did to deserve this one. My best friend, the most amazing wife and soon to be the most amazing mum,” the sports presenter wrote on Instagram, posting a snap of Portia cradling her bump with Ore pulling a look of mock surprise (top right). “Been a pretty life-changing 12 months, now [we] are preparing for our biggest adventure yet! Can’t hide our excitement. Starting a family has always been our dream. And no prizes for guessing. THERE. WILL. BE. TEARS!!!!” Ore, who famously cried after waltzing to victory on Strictly…

‘She’s very playful and has definitely inherited the robust side of her mum and her dad’ Mike Tindall Bearing a determined expression as she gripped the reins of her chestnut horse, her blonde locks peeking beneath her helmet, one young rider cut a familiar figure at the Festival of British Eventing. But it was little Mia Tindall, not mum Zara, who was riding high on the opening day at Gatcombe Park, the country home of her grandmother the Princess Royal. Watched by her dad, Mike Tindall, the three-year-old tot was trying out her equestrian skills on a horse simulator, complete with flowing mane and a red, white and blue rosette. It seems the budding rider is well on her way to following in the footsteps of mum Zara,…

‘Perhaps Diana’s most enduring legacy is that she taught the British nation to be more open about our emotions’ In the attic of her Yorkshire farmhouse, broadcaster Selina Scott opens a battered leather suitcase containing treasured keepsakes. There are faded family photographs, including one of her as a little girl learning to walk on the beach at Scarborough, and mementos of her career in the public eye. But most intriguing of all are photos of Selina with the Princess of Wales and personally signed letters from Diana bearing the royal crest and addressed to the former ITV news anchor. As the 20th anniversary of the Princess’s death approaches, Selina speaks exclusively to HELLO! about her special friendship with Diana and gives her own insight into her character. Gazing at a…

As the curtain fell, David took to the stage to thunderous applause to share his dream. “I’ve never written a movie that has been made; that’s a dream of mine,” he said. “I would…

Robert Hardy, the actor best known and loved for his work in the Harry Potter films and in BBC series All Creatures Great and Small , has died aged 91. Describing him in a statement as “gruff, elegant, twinkly and always dignified”, his family also said: “He is celebrated by all who knew him and loved him, and everyone who enjoyed his work.” The actor won recognition from a new generation after playing Cornelius Fudge, Minister of Magic, in four Harry Potter films, but is also celebrated for his various portrayals of Winston Churchill, including in Winston Churchill: The Wilderness Years in 1982, for which he received a Bafta, and in 2015 drama Churchill: 100 Days That Saved Britain .…

Do you follow Davina McCall on Instagram? If not, you should.
