When Lydia Bright first walked into her beautiful Georgian house, she knew she had found her dream home. She had been searching for a place to put down roots with daughter Loretta, who turns four in February, and this felt like another milestone for the tightknit pair. A single parent since Loretta was born, influencer, entrepreneur and former reality TV star Lydia, 33, has had to balance motherhood with running her property business and social media career, as well as find time over the past year to become an author and lovingly renovate their 18th-century house in west Essex. Inviting HELLO! inside the property for this exclusive interview and photoshoot, Lydia tells us: “Loretta and I have always had this very intense bond because it’s just the two of us.…

Despite having passed on her Crown some years ago, Claire Foy is still queen of the red carpet – as she demonstrated at the UK premiere of her new film All of Us Strangers. Showcasing a white slip dress from Khaite, the award-winning star (right) looked regally chic as she posed for photos with her two prince charmings – co-stars Paul Mescal and Andrew Scott (all above) – at the BFI Southbank in London. They were joined by guests including actress Aisling Bea and TV presenters Laura Whitmore (left) and Dermot O’Leary. Claire’s appearance came after learning both she and Paul had been nominated for Baftas for their performances and they posed happily with Andrew, the actress at one point holding hands and sharing jokes with the Fleabag star, who…

The response to her starring role in Sunset Boulevard has been far from lukewarm. But after five months of gruelling back-to-back shows in London’s West End, nobody could blame Nicole Scherzinger for craving a different kind of sunset – one at the end of a rather less chilly day. Nicole, 45, headed to the Algarve for a weekend break, explaining to fans on social media how her getaway had enabled her to “feel the sun again on my skin. Eat everything in sight. Breathe. Let go. And finally take it all in.” Photos showed the singer and musical-theatre star relaxing at a beachside property (left and top right), drinking in the beautiful views. Portugal is a favourite destination for Nicole. She and fiancé Thom Evans, 38 (together bottom right) –…

Singer Dua Lipa is “on cloud nine” after being nominated for three Brits, the UK music industry’s premier awards. Dua, 28, (above) who also has roles in Barbie and the new spy film Argylle, has been shortlisted for Artist of the Year, Pop Act and Song of the Year, and will perform at the March ceremony, too. She’ll be competing against Raye, who made Brits history with a record-breaking seven nominations, including Artist of the Year and Mastercard Album of the Year. The 26-year-old Prada star told fans: “This time a year ago, as far as the industry was concerned, I was down and out.” She added that it was “incredible” to be up for seven Brits and said: “Thank you from the bottom of my heart.” There were nods,…

As the spiritual home of haute couture, Paris always serves up the most dramatic catwalk shows. And last week’s collections for spring and summer were a veritable feast for fashionistas, from the style adventures of Jean Paul Gaultier to the classic tweeds of Chanel. Kicking off the week, actress Zendaya caused a sensation when she arrived with an eye-catching new microfringe to view the Schiaparelli catwalk at the Petit Palais museum. BLACK AND WHITE DRAMA The Spider-Man star matched her dramatic new hairstyle with an all-black outfit featuring 3D knotted spikes, which she wore on the front row beside her Euphoria costar Hunter Schafer. Joining them, singer and actress Jennifer Lopez went monochrome in a scene-stealing outfit from the label, featuring a white ruffled jacket covered with fresh rose petals,…

Some like it hot – and it doesn’t get much hotter than Kate Moss starring in a new Marilyn Monroe-inspired beauty campaign for Charlotte Tilbury. The supermodel is one of the muses chosen by make-up guru Charlotte to launch her latest lipstick range, aptly entitled Hollywood Beauty Icons. Photos released shortly after her 50th birthday celebrations show Kate in a Marilyn-esque pose (left), while a video has her dripping in diamonds and surrounded by male admirers, in a tribute to the actress’s hit film Gentlemen Prefer Blondes. Kate also pays homage to another silver-screen siren, uttering the start of Mae West’s classic line: “When I’m good, I’m very good…” While diamonds may be a girl’s best friend, Charlotte is one of Kate’s – and who Kate turns to for glam…

Where better for a hot new couple to celebrate their romance than at a Burns Night celebration? Alex Scott and Jess Glynne (together right) were among guests at a dinner in honour of Scottish poet Robbie Burns, hosted by fashion designer Daniel W Fletcher. The BBC Sport presenter, 39, and her singer partner, 34, sampled haggis and deep-fried Mars bars, with Jess declaring the latter “not for me” on Instagram. But while the battered delicacy may not have been to her liking, it was clear there was no place Jess would Rather Be, with the couple looking gloriously happy on the night. An image of them admiring a haggis wellington was labelled by Alex as: “1st Burns night and all that.” The pair recently enjoyed a break in Mexico, spending…

Celebrities including Mary J Blige and Chloe Bailey glittered in glamorous gowns at the sixth annual Urban One Honors: Best in Black awards ceremony in Atlanta in the US last week.

‘I salute all the survivors of domestic violence who talk about it, because they are going to save lives‘The Queen As the King and Princess of Wales recuperate after undergoing surgery, the royal family’s other senior women have been holding the fort. It was business as usual last week for the Queen, the Princess Royal and the Duchess of Edinburgh, who all stepped out on official engagements around the country. And after His Majesty chose to share the news in January that he needed treatment for an enlarged prostate, with the aim of raising awareness of the issue, this time it was his wife and sister-in-law who were breaking taboos. While Camilla, 76, was meeting survivors of domestic violence, Sophie, 59, was having a frank discussion about periods at a…

A far cry from the sandy beaches of Guadeloupe, the Caribbean location of the BBC’s hit series Death in Paradise, Elizabeth Bourgine is snuggled up in Paris after braving the elements on a snowy day for her exclusive photoshoot with HELLO!. The actress, who plays beach-bar owner Catherine Bordey in the murder mysteries, says of our shoot: “It was really slippery, but beautiful. It was very cold outside, but we did it. I was smiling in the sun as if it was June!” Paris is her home and where she lives with her husband, writer Jean-Luc Miesch, but 66-year-old Elizabeth gets plenty of sunshine at her alternative base in the South of France, as well as while filming in Guadeloupe. “I love Paris because I have all my memories here:…

‘Honoured to make my red carpet debut. Hope I didn’t steal the show… jk, I know I did’Chip the cat Supermodel Claudia Schiffer was feline fine at the London premiere of her husband’s latest film, bringing along her cat Chip as her date for the gala screening of Argylle. Chip has a role in the spy movie, which is directed by his co-owner Matthew Vaughn, and Claudia ensured he could take everything in during his first red (actually yellow) carpet experience. She carried her beloved pet in an appropriately argyle-patterned backpack, which featured a Perspex window and airholes to allow him to breathe comfortably. After posing for photographers, Claudia and Chip joined other stars of the film, including Dua Lipa, Bryce Dallas Howard and Ariana DeBose, inside the cinema in…

From Billie Piper and Jenna Coleman to Bonnie Langford and Jean Marsh, TV’s favourite Time Lord has been accompanied by a who’s who of acting talent over the years. And now a fresh face has been added to the line-up: Varada Sethu (left, at a Baftas party last year). The star of Sky’s action series Strike Back was spotted filming scenes with Ncuti Gatwa, the 15th Doctor, in Wales, where production is based. Photos from the location shoot in Penarth, Vale of Glamorgan, showed Varada holding hands with Ncuti, 31, with the pair dressed in 1950s costumes and running from a building amid rubble and smoke (right). The Indian-born actress, 32, joins the Whoniverse fresh from her success in Star Wars spin-off Andor. She is reportedly stepping into the shoes…

There was sugar, Spice and all things nice when Emma Bunton celebrated her 48th birthday. The singer and radio presenter was whisked away for a weekend in the country, where she was treated to cake for breakfast and showered with affection by husband Jade Jones, 44. Sharing photos from the pair’s chilly getaway (left), including a shot of her birthday cake (below right) and another in which she planted a kiss on the Damage singer’s lips (above right), Emma wrote on Instagram: “Perfect birthday morning.

Bradley Cooper and Gigi Hadid confirmed their long - rumoured romance last week by strolling hand in hand through the streets of London. The Hollywood star and his supermodel girlfriend were barely recognisable to passers-by in Marylebone, where they walked through the busy streets wearing casual clothes and sunglasses. The couple had flown into the capital from New York two days earlier so that Bradley could attend an In Conversation event at the British Film Institute on London’s South Bank. But they also managed to enjoy some downtime, with Gigi wrapping her arm around Bradley’s waist as they chatted on their stroll through the city streets. While Bradley, 49, wrapped up in a warm coat, camouflage cargo pants and a large woolly hat, Gigi, 28, teamed a pair of camel-coloured…

‘I’m always looking for characters because there’s not much that I can play with this stupid accent. I can’t play a scientist’Griselda star Sofía Vergara (left) speaks out about her Colombian accent KYLIE MINOGUE ‘Absolute honour’ to receive Billboard award Kylie Minogue has won Billboard’s 2024 Women in Music Icon Award, shortly after being nominated for her first Brit Award in 13 years. “Today just gets better and better!

Meanwhile, this weekend…

‘Age is not a big deal to me. I’m as active and driven as I have ever been. Age just doesn’t come into it’ It seems fitting that a star of the big screen who waited 45 years for the sweet taste of Oscars glory should have written a book about delayed gratification. A year on from scooping the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress for her role in Everything Everywhere All at Once – and dedicating her gong to her late parents, Hollywood legends Tony Curtis and Janet Leigh – that moment still feels like “a dream” to Jamie Lee Curtis. “It’s still incredible to me,” says the actress, whose first movie role was in the 1978 horror classic Halloween. “But I wasn’t waiting for it or expecting it.…

The TV presenter has also covered some of the nation’s highest-profile events, including the wedding of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, the Eurovision Song Contest and Comic Relief, and made the Strictly Come Dancing semi-final in 2011 – all while helping bring up children Teddy, six, Kit, four and two-year-old Annie with husband Charlie Thomson. Despite her busy lifestyle, Carmarthenshire-born Alex always looks good and last year became the latest ambassador for British casualwear brand Cotton Traders, showcasing her favourite pieces for each season.

Bryony, what benefits do people get from Pilates? “Pilates is low-impact movement…
