You might think Oscar-nominated actor Antonio Banderas, a star of stage and screen for over four decades, would be supremely confident when it comes to his craft. But as he reveals exclusively to HELLO!, he still takes the time to practise his lines – and who better to help him do so than his A-list stepdaughter, Dakota Johnson? She has even offered her “Papi” some acting tips. “I was preparing a character and I said: ‘Dakota, can you just read this for me?’” he recalls. “She said: ‘Okay, Papi, but be careful of that – I think you’re going a little too far.’” When we speak to the star, 64, he has just arrived in Madrid from his base in Malaga ahead of this week’s premiere of his production of…

As a fashion designer, Victoria Beckham says she has always been inspired by art. And she and former footballer husband David have amassed quite the collection of contemporary works. So it feels a natural fit for the former Spice Girl to team up with Sotheby’s to stage a temporary exhibition of modern pieces lent by the auction house in her Dover Street store. The designer selected 11 works, by Yoshitomo Nara, George Condo, Keith Haring, Jean-Michel Basquiat, Joan Mitchell, Gerhard Richter, Yves Klein and Francis Bacon, which were displayed for four days before going under the hammer in London and New York. “I’m so excited to partner with @Sothebys again on an incredible curation of contemporary art at my flagship London store,” Victoria, 50, wrote on social media. This isn’t…

KAY BURLEY Presenter leaves Sky News after 36 years Sky News’s Kay Burley is retiring, she has revealed. Part of the channel’s founding team in 1989, Kay, now 64, has reported on 12 general elections and major events around the world, winning a Bafta Award for her live coverage of 9/11. “From a standing start to one of the most valued brands in global news, it’s been an honour and privilege to work with some of the best and hardest-working teams in the business,” she said. “But after over a million minutes of live TV news – more than anyone else in the world – it’s time for me to indulge in some of my other passions, including my love for travel.” THOMAS KINGSTON Parents speak about tragedy for first…

From her oversized glasses and feather boas to her vibrant ensembles, Iris Apfel, who died last year at the age of 102, was a style inspiration for decades. Now we all have the opportunity to channel one of fashion’s most legendary figures. Featuring more than 200 pieces including her Dior Haute Couture feather coat, a circular travel case and decorative fashion and art accessories from her New York City apartment and Palm Beach residence, Christie’s new auction, Unapologetically Iris: The Personal Collection of Iris Apfel, is a celebration of the “geriatric starlet”, as she playfully called herself. Tash Perrin, Christie’s deputy chairman, tells HELLO!: “Her approach to fashion was joyful and inclusive, making even the most high-fashion looks feel whimsical and accessible. With bidding starting at just $100, this auction…

Needing a change from the fast-paced world of journalism, Nicola Elliott (left) began to create therapeutic essential oil blends in her kitchen – and from that grew her hugely successful wellness brand Neom Organics. Little surprise, then, that taking time for herself, getting outdoors in nature and holidaying in far-flung destinations all contribute to her idea of a luxurious life. Here, Nicola chats to HELLO! about why even the simplest things in life can be luxurious, with the right mindset… ‘A luxury night for me is a night in! My favourite luxurious meal is fish and chips from Yorkshire – and a bottle of Chablis. The one luxury I never compromise on is a bath with a good book. Nothing says luxury more than a hot bubble bath with a…

‘After what felt like the coldest, darkest January ever, it was a joy to accept my invitation to the glamorous Vanity Fair EE Bafta Rising Star party. Forget leggings and hoodies: it was time for major sparkles in my embellished Clio Peppiatt dress as I prepared to meet the bright young things gathering at the Four Seasons Hotel on Park Lane’s Pavyllon London restaurant. This year marks the party’s 20th anniversary, and I was excited to meet some of 2025’s nominees, who were Back to Black’s Marisa Abela, Nabhaan Rizwaan from Kaos, Industry’s David Jonsson, Jharrel Jerome from Unstoppable and Mikey Madison, nominated for an Academy Award for her performance in Anora. Following pre-party espresso martinis at 5 Hertford Street – and an exciting call about a potential TV project…

FITTING TRIBUTE AS LIZ WEARS LATE FRIEND’S FLOWERS Stretching back two decades, Elizabeth Hurley’s connection with India is well known. “I adore visiting India. I have some very dear friends in [Mumbai],” she has said. And her latest trip afforded her the opportunity to pay tribute to one of them: the fashion designer Rohit Bal, who died in November. Posting photos on Instagram in which she showcased a Bal flower-print sari (left), Elizabeth captioned them: “Salaam Bombay! #bombaynights.” She is no stranger to Rohit’s designs. He created the bridal dance outfit – a silver top and skirt – for her wedding to Indian businessman Arun Nayar in Jodhpur in 2007, as well as the traditional kurtas, or tunics, worn by Arun and by Elizabeth’s son Damian, then aged four. She…

‘I CAN BEGIN TO SEE A NEW POSITIVITY FOR THE THREE OF US – I AM HOPING’ The past five years haven’t been kind to Kate Garraway. And yet the Good Morning Britain presenter says this year she is determined to “grab life with both hands and squeeze out as much joy as possible”, for herself and for her two children. “I can begin to see a new positivity for the three of us – I am hoping,” she says cautiously. “Where we don’t look back and remember: ‘This time last year, we were doing this or that with Dad…’ but focus on the future. “Derek would want me to be grabbing life, because you learn how fast, and how easily, it can be snatched away,” she adds. “I know…

Holding hands with a little girl who knew her only as Catherine, helping children with their coats and joining in with a game of I Spy on the bus, the Princess of Wales was just like any other mum volunteering on the school trip. But having already seen Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis off to school, this time she was in London to join a group of four- and five-year-olds for a visit to the National Portrait Gallery. On an outing that brought together two of her biggest passions – art and early childhood – this was a hugely important moment for Kate, who has made early years development the cornerstone of her work. The Princess, who is patron of the gallery, was there to launch The Bobeam…

As a regular fixture on Bafta Award-winning reality show Made in Chelsea, Millie Mackintosh was once party-girl-in-chief. A descendant of the Mackintosh family who invented Quality Street, she was known for gallivanting around West London while a camera crew followed closely, capturing every moment of high drama for the TV screen. After Millie left the show in 2013, she seamlessly made the transition from privileged 20-something to glamorous social influencer, showcasing a picture-perfect lifestyle to her million Instagram followers. In 2020, she and her husband, Made in Chelsea alumnus Hugo Taylor, welcomed their first daughter, Sienna, followed by Aurelia in 2021. Life looked good. Yet this shiny exterior camouflaged a complex, tumultuous relationship with alcohol that Millie, now 35, has bravely shared in her new book Bad Drunk, co-written with…

PALE YELLOW The buttery shade that falls between yellow and cream is a soft, sophisticated neutral that seamlessly integrates into existing wardrobes, whether used as an accent colour or embraced in a head-to-toe tonal look. Jumpers, dresses, accessories and even denim: this season, mellow yellow is found across pretty much everything… and the options are endless. POLKA DOT This kitsch print has had countless fashion moments throughout history – Marilyn Monroe in the 1940s and ’50s, Twiggy and Goldie Hawn in the ’60s and Princess Diana and Julia Roberts in the ’90s. After slipping out of style, it has made a triumphant return, as seen on the SS25 catwalks of Valentino, Nina Ricci, Moschino and Carolina Herrera. A timeless classic, reimagined for a new generation. ON-DUTY TAILORING Sharp, versatile and…

As the star of some of Britain’s best-loved TV series, Keeley Hawes – of Line of Duty, Bodyguard and The Durrells fame – is no doubt overwhelmed by tempting offers when it comes to picking a new project. But, she says, she “totally lucked out” when the script for brand-new BBC period drama Miss Austen arrived in her inbox. “I had been hoping for something like this,” says the actress, 49, ahead of a screening of the four-part series. “I was interested in doing something about love, and this is a story about love in all its forms.” Based on author Gill Hornby’s best-selling novel – and perfectly timed to mark this year’s 250th anniversary of the birth of Jane Austen, one of the most celebrated writers in British history…
