‘I took a year to restore the house, to bring it back to its former elegance’ Interior designer Victoria-Maria Geyer moved into her 19th-century Brussels townhouse a mere seven years ago, but in her imagination, she’s inhabited it forever. In fact, she tells us: “I’d spent so much time thinking about how my home would look, I decorated it in five minutes.” The result is a bold mix of contemporary and classic – the ideal setting for her and husband Louis Martin’s family life with their three lively children. German-born but brought up in Belgium, Victoria-Maria has been transforming her surroundings ever since she was little. “I remember how, when I was five or six, I used to push the desk, the bed and even the wardrobe around my room.…

It was a night of glitz, glamour and gongs at the Variety Club Showbusiness Awards, with stars including Kate Garraway, Rochelle Humes and Dame Joan Collins among the famous faces being honoured. HELLO! was with them at The Londoner hotel in the heart of the capital’s West End, greeting guests on the red carpet before heading into the grand ballroom to see hostess Amanda Holden, dazzling in a white dress by Celia Kritharioti, announce the winners. Among them was Good Morning Britain and Global radio presenter Kate, who was making her first red-carpet appearance since the death of her husband Derek Draper in January and took to the stage in the night’s most poignant moment. The 56-year-old was honoured with the Outstanding Contribution to Broadcasting – TV and Radio award,…

From Sharon Stone and Cynthia Erivo to Chris Pine, organisers of this year’s Chaplin Award Gala got together an impressive ensemble cast to celebrate the achievements of Academy Award winner Jeff Bridges. Accepting his award in a glitzy ceremony at New York’s Lincoln Center, Jeff, 74, joined an exclusive list of past recipients, including Audrey Hepburn, Sidney Poitier, Meryl Streep and Viola Davis. The Big Lebowski star, who attended with his wife of 47 years, actor and producer Susan Geston, told Extra it was “hard to put into words” how he felt about being honoured for his outstanding contribution to cinema over the past 50 years. The actor said: “I don’t think of myself as making as many movies as I have, so to be recognised for my work is… spectacular.”…

If Lupita Nyong’o has a claws in her contract about not working with animals, she was happy to scratch it for her movie A Quiet Place: Day One. Promoting the horror film in London, the Oscar winner shared the red carpet with a purrfect partner – no, not co-star Joseph Quinn (left), but black-and-white cat Schnitzel (right). This was not any old feline friend, however. Schnitzel appears in the film and seemed perfectly at home in 41-year-old Lupita’s arms. He had even dressed for the occasion, wearing a bow tie and bandanna. A cat fan both on and off screen, Lupita last year adopted a ginger tom named Yoyo, after first fostering him from an animal shelter. “Three days into it, I knew I couldn’t give him up,” she told…

Officially, they are the House of Orange, but King Willem-Alexander, Queen Máxima and their three daughters swerved the bold shade as they celebrated King’s Day in the Dutch town of Emmen. Billed as the ultimate street party, the annual festivities mark the birthday of the monarch (who turned 57 this year), and the family’s visit kicked off with a performance of a Dutch birthday song – with Máxima (right) joining in. Wearing a green dress by Belgium’s Natan Couture, the Queen, 52, added a statement flourish in the form of an elaborate headpiece decorated with silk and feather butterflies. As well as indulging her love of insect-themed accessories, the piece was a nod to Emmen’s celebrated butterfly house. Making a rare joint appearance with their parents (together left), Princesses Catharina-Amalia,…

Born in Kosovo to Albanian parents and brought up in the UK, Rita Ora is proud of her heritage. But she hasn’t always loved her roots, which is why she created a haircare range to sort them out. Last week, the singer launched Typebea, a collection of four products designed to promote hair growth and health, in London. Rita, 33, was joined by her co-founder, Australian beauty entrepreneur Anna Lahey, and friends including former BBC Radio 1 DJ Nick Grimshaw and his fiancé Meshach Henry (together below right). Looking sleek and shiny from root to tip, The Masked Singer judge (below left with fellow musician Lou Hayter) wore a chic bustier with sheer opera gloves and a huge smile (right). “My hair has been through it all – heat styling,…

Broadcaster Dame Esther Rantzen’s campaign to make assisted dying legal in the UK has gone to Parliament, with MPs debating the issue for nearly three hours. Esther, 83, who is terminally ill with lung cancer, was one of the key figures backing a petition signed by more than 200,000 people calling for a dying person to be able to ask for medical assistance to end their lives. Last December, the presenter said she had joined the Dignitas assisted-dying clinic in Switzerland because she did not want her family to have “painful” memories of watching her suffer. Speaking to BBC Radio 4’s Today programme ahead of the debate, she said: “The evidence is clear, [assisted dying] does not damage palliative care and, in some cases, it has a really positive impact.…

Beaming from ear to ear hours after saying “I do” in the royal wedding of the decade, the then new Duke and Duchess of Cambridge are the picture of newlywed bliss in a previously unseen portrait. The couple released the black-and-white photograph on their social media accounts to mark their 13th wedding anniversary on 29 April – a welcome surprise to the public, who have been sharing their best wishes for the Princess of Wales as she undergoes preventative treatment for cancer. “13 years ago today!” read the caption. It shows the Prince, who had changed out of his red Irish Guards tunic worn for the ceremony at Westminster Abbey and into his dapper Blues and Royals frockcoat, wrapping a tender arm around his new wife’s waist. She radiates happiness,…

THE WONDER OF WORDS WHO: Damian Lewis, Elizabeth McGovern, Charles Dance, Jane Hartley WHAT: Star-studded readings for The Josephine Hart Poetry Foundation WHERE: US ambassador’s residence, Winfield House, London The worlds of politics and celebrity often collide, but it was an extra-special evening when Jane Hartley, the US ambassador to the UK, hosted The Poetry Hour in aid of The Josephine Hart Poetry Foundation. Actors including Charles Dance, Damian Lewis and Elizabeth McGovern gathered at the ambassador’s residence – Winfield House in Regent’s Park – to celebrate the work of the foundation, created in memory of the writer. Downton Abbey star Elizabeth and Homeland actor Damian, with fellow thespians Gloria Obianyo and Parth Thakerar, recited works by US and British poets including Emily Dickinson and TS Eliot. “We brought to…

MYTH #1 SPF doesn’t expire Opening a sealed SPF allows air into the packaging and the formula starts to break down. “Once opened, SPF products start losing potency and they expire roughly three years later. If used beyond their term, you can be vulnerable to sunburn,” says London-based consultant Dr Eirini Merika. The period after opening (PAO) symbol on the back indicates the shelf life of the product in months, so make sure you make a note next time you open a fresh tube. MYTH #2 Cavemen didn’t need SPF, why do we? Well, cavemen did need sun protection – and its use isn’t as new as you may think. Eirini tells us: “Sunscreen is actually quite an old invention that has always been needed. In fact, natural ingredients were…

Training Season may be over, but Dua Lipa’s relationship with Callum Turner is anything but. In fact, there was more than a hint of Radical Optimism (and definitely more than One Kiss) as the two explored New York together in the spring sunshine (left and right). Dua, 28, was first linked to Masters of the Air star Callum, 34, in January, when they were spotted dancing together at the afterparty following the series premiere. Days later, the couple appeared to confirm rumours that they were more than just friends on a night out in Santa Monica. They have since been each other’s plus-one – both on and off the red carpet – on numerous occasions in London and Los Angeles and, most recently, at the Time 100 Gala in New…

From a costume worn by Emma Corrin to play Diana in The Crown (above and top) to Nile Rodgers’s signed Stratocaster guitar, precious pieces have been donated by famous faces across the world of entertainment to raise money for War Child. And the charity hopes to clean up as the items go under the hammer in its annual Spring Clean auction. Film scripts, a Barbie poster signed by leading lady Margot Robbie (left) photographs and art are all up for grabs in a bid to support War Child’s work with children affected by conflict around the world. Many items have been donated by long-term supporters and ambassadors for the charity, including actresses Carey Mulligan and Vanessa Kirby and singers Katherine Jenkins and Melanie Chisholm. Gillian Anderson has donated one of…

‘The family are all doing well, thank you, yes, we’re doing well’ Surrounded by flag-waving well-wishers, the Prince of Wales posed for selfies, accepted flowers and gave a health update on his wife the Princess on a visit to Newcastle-upon-Tyne. Royal fans turned out in droves to catch a glimpse of the future King, who has returned to royal duties while Kate continues to undergo cancer treatment, and were rewarded with an impromptu walkabout following an official engagement in the city. Among them was 60-year-old Julie Cain, who asked: “Do you mind if I ask how your wife and children are?” “All doing well, thank you,” replied the Prince, who had celebrated his 13th wedding anniversary the day before. “Yes, we’re doing well.” William also met three-year-old Kevin, who had…

She’d never had herself down as the squeamish kind, but one scene in her latest film, Sometimes I Think About Dying, almost made Daisy Ridley physically sick. “The bugs,” says the actress with a shudder. “I actually thought I was okay with them and then we shot that scene.” Daisy, 32, plays introverted office worker Fran, who daydreams about how she might die, imagining snakes or insects crawling over her. “The [scene] with ants crawling on my hand was fine,” she says. “But then we did one where I am literally covered in bugs – real bugs – and I couldn’t move. I was gagging, it was that horrible.” It’s perhaps surprising, then, that Daisy uses the words “uplifting” and “positive” to describe the movie. “It’s a film about overcoming…

Singer and actress Jennifer Lopez recently showed off her sense of style in New York, stepping out in jeans by Acne Studios, an oversized Gaia coat from The Frankie Shop and The Attico’s Sienna denim boots. The Hustlers star completed her chic ensemble with a turquoise Chanel bag and Gucci sunglasses. “For me, fashion is an expression of who I am right in that moment, so what you’re seeing is what I’m influenced by now,” she has said.…

Taking centre stage, Princess Beatrice championed young entrepreneurs at a conference in Saudi Arabia, saying that “doing things that are for the greater good of people, communities and each other is actually at the heart of everything that entrepreneurs are really looking for”. Beatrice, 35, was on a panel at the World Economic Forum’s Special Meeting on Global Collaboration, Growth and Energy for Development in Riyadh, as well as supporting one of her projects in the United Arab Emirates (UAE), but her family were not far from her thoughts. Her husband Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi had stayed in the UK with their two-year-old daughter Sienna, and in the UAE the Princess wore the Zimmermann wrap dress she’d chosen for the photos to mark their engagement. The images, taken by photographer Misan…

Some films are hard to sit through and that was certainly the case for Anya Taylor-Joy, whose outfit for the Australian premiere of Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga made it almost impossible. In keeping with her vengeful character, Anya (right, with co-star Chris Hemsworth) wore a vintage creation from Paco Rabanne’s 1996 couture collection featuring individual “spears” splaying out from the sides of a gold chain-mail minidress. She finished it off with a matching headdress. No stranger to taking risks with fashion or film roles, the star of The Queen’s Gambit will be hoping for another box-office bullseye – with a little help from Chris, who was joined (left) at the Sydney screening by his wife, Spanish actress and model Elsa Pataky Filming for the gruelling part of Furiosa was, Anya…

She may not be in the recording studio as much, but Rihanna still knows a good base line – which is why she’s launched one. The singer and entrepreneur celebrated the unveiling of the latest addition to her Fenty Beauty range, Soft’ lit Naturally Luminous Longwear Foundation, at a party in downtown Los Angeles. Matching her hair and outfit – an Alexander McQueen corset dress in pale yellow – to the new formulation, which she has dubbed “golden hour in a bottle”, Rihanna lit up the event. The mother of two welcomed her second son, Riot, with partner A$AP Rocky nine months ago (the pair also share 23-month-old RZA). “Most days, I need it to be quick and easy and not complicated,” she said of her surprisingly low-key approach to…

BEYONCE AND BLUE IVY CARTER Mother and daughter star in The Lion King prequel Beyoncé’s 12-year-old daughter Blue Ivy Carter is to make her acting debut, starring alongside her mother in Disney’s Mufasa: The Lion King, a prequel to the 2019 live-action musical drama. Blue Ivy joins the voice cast as lion cub Kiara, the daughter of Queen Nala, who is played once more by Beyoncé. Donald Glover also returns as Kiara’s father King Simba. Speaking about the mother-and-daughter pairing, director Barry Jenkins said Beyoncé was always “mom first”. Watching her “both on the screen and behind the screen, get to be a mother – and how that affected and impacted for the better the work that we were all doing – was just really awesome”, he added. The film…

His Majesty was in fine form as he followed his mother’s footsteps His mother Elizabeth II was a devoted fan of the Royal Windsor Horse Show and never missed a year, so she would have been delighted to see the King sharing that passion – alongside her eldest granddaughter Zara Tindall – at this year’s event. His Majesty’s face lit up in a broad smile as he greeted his niece upon his arrival at Windsor Castle on the show’s third day. And his joy was matched by Zara, 42, who was equally delighted to see her uncle, the pair wrapping their arms around each other in a tight embrace. The happy outing came days after the 75-year-old monarch returned to public-facing duties amid his ongoing treatment for cancer and he…

Birthday girl Princess Charlotte beams for her mother’s camera in a beautiful new image taken to celebrate her turning nine. The Prince and Princess of Wales’s only daughter bears a striking resemblance to both her parents as she leans against a fence entwined with pink blooms at the family’s home in Windsor. In a touching nod to the late Queen, with whom she shares a name, the plant is a clematis Elizabeth. With her waist-length fair hair worn loose over a dark red cardigan, and sporting a sweet friendship bracelet on her right wrist, she is clearly growing up fast. The charming photograph, taken by Kate, was shared on social media with the message: “Happy 9th Birthday, Princess Charlotte! Thank you for all of the kind messages today.” IN THE…
