JOHANNES RADEBE DANCE STAR STEPS UP TO BEAT THE HATERS More known for his footwork than his campaigning, Strictly Come Dancing’s Johannes Radebe pledged his support for a different kind of movement when he took to Instagram to send a powerful message about discrimination. Posting an image from a photoshoot he did last year for Gay Times , there was nothing routine about the caption that accompanied the shot. “The irony of being a black queer gay [man] standing in solidarity with your brothers and sisters against discrimination of any kind around the world, while at the same time having to watch your back because the same brothers and sisters can kill you because of your sexual preference,” he wrote. Johannes, 33, whose same-sex dance with fellow pro Graziano Di…

She may be living thousands of miles away in Los Angeles, but the Duchess of Sussex still shares a close bond with the women of the Hubb Community Kitchen. Meghan sent a touching message of support to the group to mark the third anniversary of the Grenfell Tower fire. The tragedy, in which 72 people lost their lives, stunned the nation and inspired Meghan to try to help. She joined forces with Hubb, which means “love” in Arabic, to help prepare freshly cooked meals for those displaced by the blaze. And after several private visits to the kitchen at the Al-Manaar mosque, close to the West London tower block, she helped them to publish the best-selling Together: Our Community Cookbook . By June last year the collection of 50 recipes…

‘I want to do this for as long as I can. I feel like Madonna peaked at 40 or 45 and she continues to kill it’ Singer Dua Lipa (left) hopes to Be The One to follow in Madonna’s musical footsteps ‘I think Channing Tatum’s on there, but he hasn’t come on my feed yet. I keep swiping’ Actress Rebel Wilson reveals who she has her eye on on celebrity dating app Raya ‘I have to say something. And that’s where I am at this point in my life.

The Queen was forced to stay away from Royal Ascot for the first time in her 68-year reign last week, but that didn’t stop her and granddaughter Zara Tindall enjoying the racing. The event was held behind closed doors because of the Covid-19 pandemic, so while Her Majesty cheered on the horses – including a winner of her own – in front of the TV at Windsor Castle, Zara and her husband Mike dressed in their finery to follow the action from their home at Gatcombe Park, Gloucestershire. The couple, who usually accompany the Queen and other members of the royal family at the five-day festival, posted photos from their back garden, as they joined a host of celebrities to raise money for charity. Zara, 39, wore a deep-blue dress…

From Queen Rania to Crown Princess Mary, it was back to business for royals around Europe, stepping out in style with a refreshing lack of formality after weeks of Zoom calls and Instagram posts. Looking relaxed, Queen Rania of Jordan resumed her busy diary of events as she gave thanks to medical staff and volunteers from the Royal Health Awareness Society and Arabic digital health platform Altibbi for their role in supporting the country’s efforts to tackle the pandemic. Just days later, she paid a touching tribute to her husband on their 27th wedding anniversary. Posting a photo of the couple hand in hand, she wrote in Arabic and English: “How could you not fall in love with that smile, over and over again for 27 years! So lucky and…

She should have been preparing to take Wimbledon’s Centre Court by storm by now, not to mention practising her aces for the 2020 Tokyo Olympic Games. But like so many top athletes, Britain’s No. 1 female tennis star Johanna Konta has had her hopes of taking home a trophy dashed after both sporting events were cancelled due to the pandemic. “I love playing at Wimbledon and it has been my goal to win ever since I was a little girl,” she tells HELLO! in this exclusive interview, as she shares with us these pictures taken by her boyfriend, 27-year-old photographer Jackson Wade. “I feel sad that I won’t be competing this year, but it hasn’t altered my determination to be a Grand Slam champion. I’ll never stop striving for that.…

With summer here and the lockdown finally easing, the beach has beckoned, with British supermodel Rosie Huntington-Whiteley showing off her amazing figure in a simple black bikini as she made the most of the ocean waves in Malibu. The 33-year-old – who shares son Jack, who turns three this week, with long-term fiancé Jason Statham – looked in her element as she cooled off with a dip in the sea. Also in Malibu, actress Helen Hunt put her age-defying body through its paces as she headed into the waves with a boogie board. The 57-year-old Mad About You star looked fresh-faced and had her wet hair slicked back for her energetic day at the beach. The upmarket Los Angeles resort was a popular destination last week – former Victoria’s Secret…

KRISTEN STEWART Twilight star to play Diana in new film The actress Kristen Stewart, 30, is to star as the Princess of Wales in a new Hollywood film about Diana’s life entitled Spencer. The film, written by Peaky Blinders creator Steven Knight, will depict Diana’s deteriorating relationship with the Prince of Wales, and is set over three days in the early 1990s during her final Christmas holiday with the royal family at Sandringham. Discussing the casting, director Pablo Larrain said: “Kristen can be many things, and she can be very mysterious and very fragile and ultimately very strong as well, which is what we need.” Lady Diana Spencer married Prince Charles in 1981, with the two separating in 1992 and divorcing in 1996. She died in a car…

The Duchess of Cambridge has put kindness front and centre in a special assembly for primary school children as she encouraged pupils to share problems with a friend and be kind to someone in need. “Talking to someone, whether it’s a friend, family member, or teacher, is something you can do to make yourself feel that little bit better,” Kate said. “And you can also play your part in helping others to feel better too, whether offering a friendly ear, or helping someone in need.” The Duchess gave the weekly Thursday morning assembly at Oak National Academy, an online classroom set up to support teachers and parents during lockdown. She told youngsters: “We all have ups and downs. Sometimes these feelings may be good, but sometimes they may be uncomfortable…

Vogue Williams brightened up an already sunny day in a silk maxidress from British designer Amanda Wakeley as she left Heart Radio after her Sunday morning show.

Describing a flowing summer dress as “essential pregnancy attire”, Vogue accessorised with an Aspinal of London Trunk bag, Zara sandals and shades.…

Kate Bosworth’s flawless skin provides the perfect canvas for her ultra-matt red lip, and a sharp middle parting completes the look. The actress, 37, seen here at Paris Fashion Week earlier this year, says her attitude to ageing and seeing lines on a face has changed with time: “It’s like, they’ve earned that. That’s interesting,” she says. But she still pays attention to skincare, using a moisturiser daily: “I use The Cream [by Augustinus Bader], which is lighter and perfect for humidity.”…

Slumped on a bench in the little park near to her tiny studio flat, 22-year-old Annabelle was struggling not to cry. People were always saying to her: “You are young, healthy, you’ve got the world at your feet.” She was young and healthy, though a stone overweight, but she couldn’t see the world at her feet. What did that even mean? Working in a sandwich bar in Clapham Common was hardly ritzy. Even if some of the customers behaved as if they were celebrities. After work she went home to her cramped flat and watched TV until it was time to go to bed. She had no real friends in London. She chatted to customers, she passed the time of day with the other tenants, but she couldn’t claim they…

‘My family, my home, my pup, my health. That’s what I really appreciate. It’s about being grateful’ As she sits in her glorious garden enjoying a picnic with her daughter and puppy, Saira Khan is reflecting on the past few extraordinary months. “I feel lucky that we as a family have done so well to keep things together,” she says proudly as we join the Loose Women presenter and businesswoman at the Oxfordshire home she shares with her husband Steve Hyde and their two children Zac, 12, and nine-year-old Amara, as well as Vera, the new fluffy addition to the family. “Yes, we’ve had our rows but we’ve managed and coped really well, which has been a real lesson for us. If we lost everything, as long as we had…

The Prince of Wales has called for action to prevent the coronavirus pandemic from having a “potentially devastating” impact on young people’s futures. In a video message for the Prince’s Trust, Prince Charles offered his “heartfelt wishes” to youngsters in the UK, as Government figures revealed the number of young people claiming unemployment benefit has doubled in two months. “In times of economic hardship it is often young people who are hardest hit and we know that many under-25s work in sectors such as hospitality and tourism, which have borne the brunt of this crisis,” said the Prince. “Youth unemployment can cause a terrible downwards spiral, impacting mental health and leading to challenges such as low self-esteem, poverty, homelessness, or worse.” The Prince’s Trust’s Young People Relief Fund is providing…

In the large, light-filled living room of her Los Angeles home, Gwyneth Paltrow is contemplating her next birthday. “I would not want to go back to being in my 20s for anything. It’s interesting getting older,” she says as we chat by video link – due to the current restrictions – ahead of her turning 48 in September. “Because it’s almost like as soon as you get to the age where you start to really, really like yourself and really, really accept yourself, that’s when you start having wrinkles and your metabolism changes and all those things happen. “You just got to a place where you totally accepted yourself and then you started to get old. But you know, I think that’s beautiful, too. I’m so much happier now –…

‘I miss hugging! I am a very tactile, “huggy” person and I don’t know what to do with myself at a distance’ Zoom call under way, Davina tells me: “Did you know that 70% of your immune system is in your gut? You should be having 30 different types of fibre every week. So next time you’re making chilli, don’t just put in kidney beans, add a tin of mixed beans for multiple fibres.” The advice comes from an episode of Davina’s podcast, Making the Cut , featuring her friend Dr Megan Rossi, author of Eat Yourself Healthy . Davina has been making the podcast since the start of the year with her hairdresser boyfriend Michael Douglas. “We record it remotely and it’s been amazing because we couldn’t see each…
