People are coming up with some super-creative party ideas ATM. Themes like ‘extra’ and ‘rose and ice’ have had me shopping for sparkly everything (check out p48 for our fashion team’s glitzy picks!). And I’m still kind of unsure what to wear to a croquet Christmas do I’ve got coming up (and, um, how to play croquet). It’s all got me in the mood to hold my own party before the year ends, and our tips on hosting the best-ever wine and cheese night (p68) sealed the deal. But in amongst all the festive fun, I’m also trying to do the right thing by my body – I know, actually the worst time of year for it! – and loving soaking up all the advice I can, from surviving the…

Chloë Grace Moretz has well and truly moved on from her April split with 19-year-old Brooklyn Beckham. The 21-year-old was seen engaging in some serious PDA with Playboy model Kate Harrison, 27, outside celebrity hotspot Soho House on December 3, following a romantic dinner date at Nobu, Malibu. ‘Once tucked away  behind a picket fence, the pair engaged in a make-out session that lasted for 30 minutes,’ an eyewitness revealed. The loved-up ladies then strolled arm in arm down a quiet street and into the night. It’s not known how long Chloë and Kate have been dating, but the model has a famous ex of her own, rocker Gene Simmons’ son Nick.…

Meghan, Duchess of Sussex, is throwing her royal weight around at the $13,800 per night Lindo Wing at St Mary’s Hospital in London, where she will give birth to her and Prince Harry’s first child in April. ‘Meghan will be ordering royal lackeys to get reports on the hygiene standards, and she’ll want to ensure everything is bleached to the highest standard,’ reveals a royal insider, after the hospital was rated just two out of five for cleanliness following a government inspection. The insider adds, ‘[Meghan, 37] is also considering bringing her own chef into the hospital to oversee preparation of her food.’ QUEEN OF CLEAN According to a palace insider, pregnant Meghan ‘went ballistic’ when she learnt of the poor health rating.…

David Beckham has found himself at the centre of a fresh new drama, after he was dragged into the feud between his younger sister Joanne and her reality star ex, Kris Donnelly. Kris hit out at Joanne last week, claiming it’s been months since he’s seen their 12-month-old daughter Peggy. The Big Brother alum put Becks, 43, centre stage when he shared a pic of the former soccer star holding their baby girl. ‘Who do you think you are?’ Kris angrily wrote. ‘I wait 5 months to finally be reunited with my daughter on her birthday weekend only to be told to wait another week due to “family arrangements” #shameonyou.’ Kris and Joanne split when Peggy was just six months old. ‘It’s heartbreaking and it’s a…

Princess Beatrice could have landed any of the world’s most eligible bachelors, but instead she chose a not-so-eligible gentleman – and the family of his jilted ex is speaking out! The 30-year-old princess recently went public with her boyfriend of several months, 35-year-old real estate millionaire and son of a count, Edoardo ‘Edo’ Mapelli Mozzi. But while the new coupling likely thrilled Beatrice’s parents, Prince Andrew and Duchess Sarah Ferguson – who were long-time friends of Edo’s late stepfather, political operative Christopher Shale – not everyone is thrilled about the romance. A source can reveal Edo broke up with his fiancée, Harvard-educated architect Dara Huang (with whom he shares two-year-old son Wolfie), to date the princess, and effectively devastated Dara’s family in the process. ‘It’s not fair, but the royal…

From the outside, Jessica Alba raises three kids, runs her billion-dollar Honest Company and continues to shine on-screen. Her secret weapon for juggling it all? The actress-entrepreneur has a loyal team of miniature assistants! While daughter Honor, 10, helps care for her 11-month-old baby brother Hayes, daughter Haven, seven, likes to lend a hand in the kitchen, whipping up pancakes for the family. ‘It’s just nice for the kids to feel involved and feel like they’re participating,’ Jessica says. ‘As they grow and mature, they get to do more and more things.’ Jessica sure has a lot on her plate.

ROB VS KIM KARDASHIAN Kim, 38, may have been feuding with Kourtney on the most recent KUWTK season, but she still considers her brother the family punchline. After slamming Kourt’s behaviour, Kim asks, ‘Do you think it’s… a cry for attention? Is she the new Rob?’ The low blow didn’t take Rob, 31, by surprise. After all, he once compared Kim to the psychotic ‘bitch’ in Gone Girl . NOEL VS LIAM GALLAGHER Oh, brother! The Oasis musicians have been feuding since the band’s inception. In 1994, they spent an entire interview talking about how much they hated each other. Then, in 1995, Noel hit Liam over the head with a cricket bat. And most recently, at the 2018 NME Awards, Liam, 46,…

KEEP IT SIMPLE Don’t attempt to taste more than six different wines in one tasting session (though we know it may be tempting), and wait at least five minutes between pours to avoid overwhelming your palate. DOUBLE UP Make sure you buy two bottles of each wine featured in the tasting. A bottle will give around 10 average tastings, and you’ll want another bottle of each to enjoy later (trust us). THE PERFECT TEMPERATURE Put reds in the fridge for 15-30 minutes before you drink them, and take whites and rosés out a few minutes before pouring. KEEP THE COST DOWN Ask each guest to bring a bottle so things don’t get too pricey (set a reasonable price point), and assign each person a type of wine, so that you…

Check it out! Give the wine a quick up and down. Is it dark or bright? Clear or cloudy? Give it a swirl! Everyone knows this is the mark of a pro wine-taster. It aerates the wine and unlocks its aromas. Smell! Stick your nose way into the glass and inhale deeply – this triggers your taste buds. Is it fruity? Floral? Herbal? Take a big sip! You need to make sure the wine touches all parts of your mouth – that way you’ll experience all the different flavours. If you want to be a professional, hold the wine in your mouth while slowly inhaling air (you’ll make that slurping sound). This aerates the wine and opens up your sense of smell, which helps to enhance flavours.…

Forget the gushy engagements, female camaraderie and feel-good success stories on season seven of Vanderpump Rules. Kristen Doute dishes the dirt on the storyline for the series! According to Kristen, 35, her 26-year-old ex, James Kennedy, is cheating on his current girlfriend, beauty queen Raquel Leviss, 24. ‘He’s human trash. He’s garbage. He just gets worse and worse and worse,’ she tells OK!. ‘He doesn’t learn from his mistakes, his ego is out of control, he’s a cockroach. He never goes away. He can’t die. He’s the worst!’ Does Raquel believe he’s faithful? There are two explanations for her sticking by James’ side, says Kristen. ‘She’s not the sharpest tool in the shed. Honestly, either she knows and deep down she doesn’t care because she thinks he’s that cool, or…

ALLI WEBB VS BRUNA LIRIO VS BELLA THORNE This lilac Pamella Roland gown is fit for a princess – but Bella’s Cinderella updo veers towards overkill. Bruna’s soft waves and geometric pumps strike the right tone between simple and sleek. JANUARY JONES VS ALESSANDRA AMBROSIO January’s take on this polka-dot Maje crop top is pure country sweetheart. But it’s Alessandra’s structured navy blazer and gold accents that add an edge of glamour and sophistication. NASTIA LIUKIN VS KYLE RICHARDS While it’s a close call, Kyle’s hairstyle and pumps are just a little too formal for this edgy velvet Alexandre Vauthier frock – which calls for a more rockstar take. MARY J BLIGE VS OLIVIA CULPO Mary’s busy topknot and sandals have us seeing lines in all different directions. Meanwhile, Olivia…

Jessica Simpson isn’t happy following Natalie Portman’s recent comment that she was ‘confused’ as a young star in 2005 when she saw Jess wearing a bikini while talking about her virginity. ‘I don’t know what this is trying to tell me as a woman, as a girl,’ Nat said. ‘The words stung badly,’ a source tells of Jess, whose fans accused Natalie, 37, of ‘slutshaming’. ‘Even though she’s built a fashion empire that’s hugely successful, it bothers her that people still view her as a stereotypical ditz.’ And the 38-year-old’s clapback was classic. ‘I believed then – and I believe now – that being sexy in a bikini and being proud of my body are not synonymous with having sex,’ Jess shared. ‘I have made it my practice not to…

Stepping out in New York on December 6, Amal Clooney made a rare appearance with her twins – Ella and Alexander, 18 months. With a child in each arm, the 40-year-old looked poised and ever the capable parent as she carried the kids into their awaiting car. ‘Amal had one twin on each hip and they each held onto a teddy bear,’ tells an onlooker. ‘She didn’t have a nanny with her and seemed to be at ease handling both twins. She had her hands full, but a big smile on her face. The twins were very curious and were looking around at everything.’ It’s been six months since Ella and Alexander have been seen out in public, but with their cherubic faces on full display it was clear to…

For years she’s been committed to maintaining her trim figure, but after welcoming her second son Hart back in May, Miranda Kerr revealed she’s finally learning to embrace her new ‘mum-bod’. ‘It’s really important as women that we’re gentle with ourselves and don’t feel like we have to snap back into shape after a baby,’ she shared recently. ‘It’s OK, I’ve got a mum-bod and it’s fine!’ The 35-year-old says that she was in no rush to shed the weight she gained during her pregnancy, admitting she was taking her time to get back in shape. ‘It’s all part of it,’ she tells. ‘I took nine months – well, 10 months – to grow a beautiful child and it might take 10 months to feel good in a swimsuit again.…

Having been married and divorced twice, Jennifer Aniston had many convinced she’d given up hopes of starting a family. But the 49-year-old has recently opened up about motherhood, admitting that while the prospect always felt ‘quite honestly, kind of frightening’ to her, there’s still a very good chance she will be called a mum one day. ‘Some people are just built to be wives and have babies,’ the actress began, conceding. ‘I don’t know how naturally that comes to me.’ But like many aspects of her life, she’s definitely open to the possibility. ‘Who knows what the future holds in terms of a child and a partnership – how that child comes in… or doesn’t?’ she added. With or without a partner, Jen explains that she’s incredibly happy with her…

A mid whispers that Kourtney Kardashian and Scott Disick have finally rekindled their 10-year romance and are expecting their fourth child, insiders say there is more to the reconciliation. While the pair definitely seem to be on much better terms of late, could the promise of a payday have sweetened the reunion deal? There are now rumours that the former couple are in talks to have their own spin-off show, and the series will look into their new relationship and how they make things work with their three kids. ‘Research has shown that Scott and Kourtney are by far the most intriguing plotline on [Keeping Up with the Kardashians] these days, especially with the clear attraction that still exists between them,’ tells an insider. But what their relationship looks like…

Diane and Norman, 49, have been incredibly private about their relationship and the  arrival of their first child together – with the actress never actually confirming her pregnancy even when her baby bump could no longer be disguised.

Newlyweds Nick Jonas and Priyanka Chopra have been forced to defend their quickie marriage after the actress was labelled a ‘global scam artist’. ‘All Nick wanted was a possible fling with Hollywood’s latest It woman,’ the since-deleted article on The Cut began. ‘But instead he wound up staring straight at a life sentence with a global scam artist.’ The article followed the couple’s five-day wedding extravaganza earlier this month in 36-year-old Priyanka’s native India. ‘What Nick & Pri have is beautiful love. Thank u, next,’ the 26-year-old singer’s brother Joe tweeted, while his fiancée, Sophie Turner, called the accusation ‘bullshit’, adding, ‘This is wildly inappropriate and totally disgusting.’…

DREW VS JAID BARRYMORE She was the little girl who made a connection with ET, but Drew, 43, has struggled to maintain one with her own mum. Drew’s child star status destroyed the duo’s relationship after Jaid, now 72, began living a lavish lifestyle with her daughter’s money. ‘I was disgusted,’ Drew wrote in her 2015 memoir Wildflower . ‘I will never forget one night when we were all waiting to go to dinner together at the duplex, and my mum pulled in with a brand-new BMW 320i.’ By 14, Drew had emancipated herself from her parents. ‘[My mum] had lost credibility by taking me to Studio 54 instead of school,’ Drew explained. ‘I wanted to do things on my own terms.’ Now an actress, producer and…

He’s clocked up an impressive 17 seasons on Dancing with the Stars, but it’s Derek Hough’s time as a judge on World of Dance that he’s most proud of. ‘I’m just trying to help and inspire or motivate or encourage the dancers to continue to get better, but also to praise them,’ the 33-year-old tells. ‘I love it, it’s so much fun.
