Eva Longoria Bastón first found fame almost 20 years ago in US comedy-drama Desperate Housewives, playing Gabrielle Solis, a wealthy Latina living on exclusive Wisteria Lane. It was a trailblazing role that pushed back on stereotypes, and Eva’s life since has lived up to it. Born in Texas to Mexican-American parents, she made her way to Hollywood with just two dollars in her pocket, so when stardom arrived, she didn’t let it turn her head. Instead, the award-winning actress has turned her celebrity into a platform to do good and help the Latino community. ‘The first time I came to Marbella, two decades ago, it was love at first sight. I said: “Some day I’ll live here”’ ‘This house needed refurbishing when it came on the market, but it had…

‘The dress was very 1980s, yet more minimal. The only bit of froufrou was the organza skirt’Jacques Azagury Her unique sense of style and the compelling way in which she expressed herself through fashion made Diana, Princess of Wales one of the world’s most famous trailblazers. And as the fascination with her life endures – in a new wave of interest dubbed “The Crown effect”, sparked by Netflix’s historical drama – her outfits are making history, too. At a recent auction in Hollywood, an evening gown worn twice by Diana as Princess of Wales – in Florence during her 1985 royal tour of Italy with Prince Charles, and again during a visit to Canada the following year – sold for a record-breaking $1.15m (£900,000) to an unknown bidder, fetching more…

Mary, 30, became the first goalie to take home the BBC title, and the second Lioness in as many years, after going head to head with fellow contenders including golfer Rory McIlroy, jockey Frankie Dettori, heptathlete Katarina Johnson-Thompson, tennis champion Alfie Hewitt and cricketer Stuart Broad – himself awarded a CBE in the New Year’s honours. “For me, this is the ultimate all-round sporting accolade,” Mary told the TV audience after joining the ceremony’s presenters Clare Balding,…
