For many it’s the city of love – and the film stars descending on Venice for this year’s International Film Festival certainly made it live up to that name, cosying up to their partners on the red carpet. At the gala screening of his forthcoming movie Queer, romance was definitely in the air for Daniel Craig and Rachel Weisz. The James Bond actor, 56, and his wife of 13 years, arrived at the premiere hand in hand, with Black Widow star Rachel, 54, winning praise for her glittering purple Atelier Versace dress, which boasted an impressive train. Daniel – who looked smart in a bespoke suit by Loewe – plays one of the lead roles in Queer, which is based on a semi-autobiographical novel by William Burroughs and contains some…

She and her husband Keith Urban might be considered The Perfect Couple, but Australian superstar Nicole was only too happy to go it alone when she donned a stunning black Balenciaga gown for the London premiere of the new Netflix show, in which she stars as matriarch novelist Greer Winbury. Nicole was gracing the green carpet at the BFI Imax on the South Bank alongside Liev Schreiber, who plays Greer’s husband, Tag, while her real-life beau, country music star Keith, was in Australia promoting his tour with their daughters Sunday, 16, and Faith, 13. But all eyes were on the Hollywood star, 57, who looked effortlessly chic (right) in a satin floor-length dress from the designer’s pre-autumn/winter 2024 collection, first seen at Balenciaga’s Los Angeles fashion show earlier in the…

Dribbling, (sleep) training, at-home games, even changing ends – for Premier League footballer Bernardo Silva, they have all taken on new meaning over the past 12 months. Along with his wife, model Ines Degener, the Manchester City and Portugal midfielder welcomed daughter Carlota last August. And they recently marked her first birthday with a Disney Princess-themed party at the Penha Longa Resort in Sintra, Portugal. Celebrating with them were guests including around 100 children, who were treated to a “magical day” filled with entertainment such as live music, crafts and balloons. For the birthday girl, there were gifts galore, with toys, clothes, a bike and even jewellery. “It was everything we imagined and even better,” Ines reveals to HELLO!. “We wanted to spend [Carlota’s birthday] with family and close friends.…

He has long held a reputation for having the biggest heart in Hollywood, and as Keanu Reeves celebrates his 60th birthday, life seems to be treating him well in return. The Matrix star’s milestone finds him not only happy in his private life, but also enjoying a career comeback that will see him returning to the big screen and TV, reuniting with his rock band and making his debut on Broadway. Although the movie heart-throb has kept his love life under the radar for years, he has recently been stepping out in public with long-term girlfriend Alexandra Grant.

Model Ellie Goldstein has been exceeding expectations since she was born. When she was a baby, doctors told her parents that she would never walk or talk, but she went on to become the first person with Down Syndrome to model for brands such as Gucci Beauty and Adidas, and has most recently collaborated with Barbie makers Mattel to create the company’s first doll with the genetic condition. Ellie has never let her differences hold her back – in fact, it’s her unique qualities that make her shine. Since publishing her groundbreaking memoir Against All Odds: My Life with Down Syndrome last year, the model has written a new book for children. Called simply Ellie, it is intended to challenge the stereotypes that people with differences face, as well as…

Kate Winslet is no stranger playing strong and inspirational women, and her latest film, Lee, a biopic based on the life of model turned Second World War photographer Lee Miller, is no different. Speaking to HELLO! at the London premiere last week, the star described the film, which she also co-produced, as “the biggest achievement in my working life so far”. She plays the title character, “an unbelievably courageous, flawed middle-aged woman, who got her US war accreditation and went to the front line”. The 48-year-old actress was joined by her on-screen husband Alexander Skarsgard, with the actor, who plays British surrealist artist Roland Penrose, matching Kate’s chic black gown with a dapper suit. The pair had an undeniable off-screen rapport: at one point, he leant over to kiss her…

When it comes to celebrating in style, Lady Amelia Windsor knows how to deliver. The style icon, philanthropist and relative of the British royal family, who turned 29 in August, hosted an intimate, belated birthday lunch last week at London hotspot Langan’s with some of her closest friends. But Mel, as she casually introduces herself, tells HELLO! that she spent her actual birthday marking someone else’s milestone. “I was actually at my friend’s wedding,” she reveals. “Didn’t properly celebrate but it was quite nice to have a party organised and it was a really fun wedding.” The wine-paired lunch was co-hosted by TV wine expert Joe Fattorini in partnership with Amelia’s Wine, founded by Amelia Singer. But it wasn’t just the “fun name match” that made the Duke of Kent’s…

When Alicia Vikander signed on to play one of the most famous women in British history in the new movie Firebrand, she knew it was important to get her portrayal right. But despite spending many hours researching the significance of Katherine Parr, the sixth and final wife of Henry VIII, she also acknowledges that becoming a mother – she shares two children with her actor husband Michael Fassbender – was invaluable when it came to getting into such a historical character. “As an actor, I think you always draw on your own life experiences and fantasies as well as your imagination,” Alicia says. “I had played a mother before I became a parent myself. I gave birth on screen three times before I gave birth for real. I definitely feel…

SIR ELTON JOHN Recovering after losing sight in one eye Sir Elton John has revealed that recent health problems have affected his vision. The 77-year-old musician told fans on Instagram: “Over the summer, I’ve been dealing with a severe eye infection that has left me with only limited vision in one eye. “I am healing, but it’s an extremely slow process and it will take some time before sight returns to the impacted eye.” He added: “I am so grateful for the excellent team of doctors and nurses and my family, who have taken such good care of me over the last several weeks.” Sir Elton has two sons – Zachary, 13, and Elijah, 11 – with husband David Furnish. Having retired from touring last year, he is now working…

Posing up a storm in our exclusive HELLO! photoshoot, Laura Whitmore is reminiscing about when she first discovered an interest in fashion growing up in Bray, Co. Wicklow. “In my home town, there wasn’t a lot of choice. So I worked in a secondhand store, mainly to get all the best stuff,” laughs the presenter, who is just as smiley and engaging as she is on screen, whether as host of Love Island or her debut chat show, Laura Whitmore’s Breakfast Show. “I found some amazing pieces that never made it to the shop floor because I bought them before anyone else did,” she adds. “Secondhand shops showed me more brands and styles. It was exciting.” Fast-forward a few years and Laura is celebrating the launch of her third Love…

Muted Satin British actress Daisy Edgar-Jones has been nailing her fashion choices this year, including this stunning ivory satin co-ord set (above).

Cate Blanchett is the embodiment of a Hollywood star. She exudes old-school glamour and beauty, yet her skill as an actress is as respected and admired as her celebrity status. This was demonstrated by her appearances at the 81st Venice International Film Festival, where the two-time Oscar-winning Australian actress made the red carpets her own in a series of show-stopping outfits in support of her star turn in the Apple TV+ series Disclaimer, a thriller in which she plays an acclaimed journalist with a dark secret. It was proof, if any were needed, that at 55 she is in her prime and at the top of her game. She had anticipated the inevitable interest in her festival wardrobe when asked by a journalist ahead of the event if there’d be…

The star-studded amfAR Gala in Venice was a peachy occasion for actress Kate Beckinsale, who walked the red carpet dressed in the cheerful hue last week. Los Angeles-based Kate, 51, who is the daughter of actress Judy Loe and the late actor Richard Beckinsale, was giving playful glamour in the floor-length gown, which was adorned with delicate feathers, a waist-cinching silver belt and a glittering, embellished playsuit (left). The chic-yet-fun outfit was a fresh take on the typical gala look – and the ensemble was pure Kate, who is known for her elaborate and often humorous looks. The actress – due to appear soon in action thriller Canary Black as a CIA agent on the run – complemented her shimmering outfit with glittery silver platform heels and wore her hair…

Becoming a grandmother certainly hasn’t robbed Queen Rania of her sparkle. Judging by a new official photo released in celebration of her 54th birthday (left), it has merely enhanced it. The undisputed jewel in the crown of the Jordanian royal family was the subject of a timeless portrait, wearing a dark dress and a plum-coloured, crown-embossed sash – the simple outfit perfectly offsetting her spectacular tiara. A favourite of Rania’s, the specially commissioned piece – known as the Arabic Scroll tiara – features 1,300 diamonds totalling 20 carats and was a present from her husband, King Abdullah II, in 2005. “I’ve never really been big on birthdays,” the family-focused Queen once told HELLO!. “With every year, the things I wish for get smaller and simpler. Time makes us want to…

As he celebrates his milestone 40th birthday, the Duke of Sussex has much to reflect on. In birthday plans exclusively revealed to HELLO!, Prince Harry will mark his big day on 15 September with a party for family and friends in Montecito, California, at the home he shares with his wife the Duchess and their children Prince Archie, five, and Princess Lilibet, three.

It is 37 years since Glenn Close starred opposite Michael Douglas in the 1987 hit movie Fatal Attraction, and now the award-winning Hollywood star, who has also received eight Oscar nominations, is playing another sexy character in new Netflix horror film The Deliverance.

Here, the legendary actress opens up about playing complex character Alberta in The Deliverance and reveals what she thinks about the term “bunny boiler”, coined in Fatal Attraction… Glenn, what made you want to star in The Deliverance? “From the moment [director] Lee Daniels called me, I was immediately fascinated by the story, his vision as a film-maker and how complex this character that…

Australian model Elle Macpherson has revealed that she recovered from breast cancer after refusing chemotherapy and instead taking a “holistic approach”. The supermodel, 60, was diagnosed with HER2-positive oestrogen-receptive intraductal carcinoma after undergoing a lumpectomy – a removal of cancer tissues from the breast – in 2017. After receiving advice from 32 doctors, who recommended she undergo a mastectomy, radiation, chemotherapy, hormone therapy and reconstruction of her breast, Elle turned to alternative medicine. “It was a shock, it was confusing, it was daunting in many ways and it gave me an opportunity to dig deep to find a solution that worked for me,” she said. “Saying no to standard medical solutions was the hardest thing I’ve ever done. But saying no to my own inner sense would have been even…

RUMPLED PONIES There’s more to these low-slung ponytails (left) than meets the eye, says Adam Garland, backstage at Eudon Choi. “The overall look is designed to have no hard lines,” he tells us. “After creating an irregular side parting and applying Authentic Beauty Concept’s Airy Texture Spray to create a dry, dusty finish, we gathered the ponytail at the nape of the neck. Then, to give it more dimension, we rubbed a balloon up and down the hair shaft to create static, followed by a light mist of hairspray and Authentic Beauty Concept’s Nymph Salt Spray. To finish, random pieces of hair were untucked and pulled forward to create a veil over the face.” WINK OF AN EYE Is this the new way to wear eye shadow? This season, instead…

For most celebrity couples, honeymoons are luxury, no-expenses-spared romantic getaways to the most exotic hotspots the world has to offer.

With no access to their bank cards or smartphones, the couple – who married in July 2022 in Jeremy’s home town of Arpino in southern Italy – had to rely on each other to complete the epic journey to the finish line. Sitting down with HELLO! as the series draws to a close, Kelly and Jeremy open up about their relationship and their exciting new plans. ‘We feel…
