When it came to choosing the location of their dream family home, California power couple Tina Odjaghian and Armen Terteryan had clear priorities. What they had in mind was a peaceful spot within easy reach of Los Angeles where they could bring up sons Charlie, 12, and Luca, ten, surrounded by nature. And they found exactly that in the exclusive enclave of Hidden Hills, Calabasas, where big names like the Kardashians and Jennifer Lopez are among their neighbours. Now, as she opens the doors to her huge modern villa, Tina enthuses: “Living here, we can go hiking every day along the trails, enjoying the beauty and serenity of this place and disconnecting from the hustle and bustle of the city.” That’s just the antidote she needs to an often stressful…

KYLIE IS A BOLT FROM THE BLUE IN NEW YORK Sporting a sensational cobalt latex ensemble, Kylie Minogue commanded the stage as she headlined Madison Square Garden for the first time. The pop star, 56, treated cheering fans in New York to a set packed with hits from her almost four-decade-long career, from 2023’s Padam Padam to her dance-pop favourite Spinning Around. Although the Grammy Award-winning singer performed at the famous venue as part of the Z100 Jingle Ball line-up in 2002, the solo show during her Tension Tour – which includes dates across the US, UK and Europe – marked a major career milestone. “It feels slightly like an out-of-body experience,” she said. Following a pair of stellar performances, Kylie took to Instagram to acknowledge the momentous occasion, writing:…

She has joined Sir Elton John and Audrey Hepburn as one of the world’s 21 Egot winners, but chasing stardom has never interested Emmy, Grammy, Oscar and Tony award-winning actress Viola Davis. “I’m happy that I’m absolutely at the age where I appreciate the slow burn, because I find success, accolades and living for that to be very limiting,” she says. The 59-year-old actress – who made her breakthrough in 2008’s Doubt, aged 43 – has never been in a rush. “I’m surprised that I don’t spend a lot of time saying: ‘I could have… I should have…’” Viola says. “For me, all of those years doing theatre in musty church basements in New York and all over the country was all worth it.” The star has proved that waiting…

SIR ELTON JOHN AND MADONNA Stars decide to bury the hatchet at last Madonna and Sir Elton John have ended a decades-long feud. The tension was caused by the Sorry Seems to Be the Hardest Word singer repeatedly accusing Madonna of lip-syncing. The pair reconciled when Madonna went backstage after Elton performed on US TV show Saturday Night Live. “Over the decades it hurt me to know that someone I admired so much shared his dislike of me publicly as an artist,” Madonna, 66, said on Instagram, revealing that Elton, 78, had asked for forgiveness. Elton said to the Vogue singer on Instagram: “Thank you for forgiving me and my big mouth.” PRADA AND VERSACE Rival Italian fashion houses to unite Prada has announced that it is buying high-fashion label…

‘THIS ERA IS A GOLDEN AGE OF STYLE AND GLAMOUR – AND SO MUCH MORE’ It was a golden era of decadence that has been replicated on screen in dramas such as Downton Abbey and The Gilded Age. Now, a new exhibition delves into the family lives, personal collections and glittering social circles of the pre-eminent royal couples of the early 20th century – Edward VII and Queen Alexandra, and George V and Queen Mary. The marriage in 1863 of Edward, Queen Victoria’s eldest son, then Prince of Wales, to Princess Alexandra of Denmark ushered in a glamorous new chapter for the royal family. As the widowed monarch continued to mourn her husband Prince Albert, the younger couple surrounded themselves with fashionable society figures, enjoying a whirlwind of garden parties,…

Celine Buckens’s transformation from child actress to prime-time crime-thriller star has been thrilling to watch. Since landing her big-screen debut in Steven Spielberg’s blockbuster War Horse at the age of 15 and becoming a debutante at the glittering Bal des Débutantes in Paris, she has gone on to win major roles in popular shows including the BBC’s Showtrial – which earned her a Bafta TV Award nomination – and The Castaways, opposite Sheridan Smith. And she’s still only 28. Now, the Belgian-British actress returns as lead character Tasha, a mother desperate to protect her daughter from the child’s dangerous father, in the “unexpected” follow-up to Paramount+ hit The Ex-Wife. In the first series, Tasha – a young woman with seemingly perfect husband Jack – becomes increasingly disturbed by the frequent…

As the great and the good of the acting world gathered in the spring sunshine for the Olivier Awards – the Oscars of London theatre – at the Royal Albert Hall in the capital, all eyes were on Romola Garai. The actress – dressed for her moment in the spotlight in a vibrant Erdem gown – is enjoying something of a career renaissance, after quietly quitting Hollywood more than a decade ago. Back with a bang, the 42-year-old took home the Best Actress in a Supporting Role award, beating off fierce competition from herself after becoming the only star to be nominated twice in one category. Romola secured the victory for her role in The Years, which is based on the book Les Années by Annie Ernaux and enjoyed a…

Smiling in chic swimwear, Vogue Williams and Spencer Matthews couldn’t have looked happier as they put their beach fun on show in a lively, candid snap during a family holiday on St Barts last week. The former Made in Chelsea star turned alcohol-free drinks business owner, 36, and his model and podcast host wife, 39, were photographed against a glorious blue sky, with Vogue holding their two-year-old son Otto on her shoulders while four-year-old daughter Gigi balanced on Spencer’s. Also joining them on the trip was their six-year-old son Theodore, who wore an outfit matching his little brother’s as the pair played with a ball under the Caribbean sun and made sandcastles on the beach. A sun-kissed Vogue was also spotted sporting a cobalt bikini paired with cut-off denim shorts…

‘MOTHERHOOD IS THE HARDEST AND THE BEST THING I’VE EVER DONE’Cressida Since they became mothers, Isabella Branson and her sister Cressida Bonas’s lives have changed immeasurably as they navigate all the ups and downs that come with parenthood. And as actress Cressida looks forward to the birth of her second child, the topic of motherhood is on her mind more than ever. “I have a toddler and another one on the way in less than two months, and I’m definitely feeling it,” she tells HELLO!, cradling her bump as she and Isabella sit down for this exclusive interview. “Motherhood is full of contradictions; it can be very challenging but can then be magical. It’s the hardest thing I’ve ever done, and the best thing I’ve ever done.” Mother of two…

There aren’t many royals you’d find cycling across London – but then again, Lady Margarita Armstrong-Jones isn’t your average member of the royal family. As she arrives on her bicycle for our exclusive photoshoot at a beautiful mews house in London’s Notting Hill, her fashionable vintage dirndl immediately evokes the spirit of her grandmother, Princess Margaret, after whom she was named. Margarita – who was a bridesmaid at the age of eight for Prince William and Kate Middleton – tells us that she is influenced by her elegant grandmother and yet remains very much her own person. “I think she was an international influence of style and fun,” says the 28th in line to the throne, the daughter of Margaret’s son David Armstrong-Jones, now 2nd Earl of Snowdon, and the…

After spending childhood holidays in Girona and working as a painter and designer in Barcelona, Penelope Chilvers set out to bring the Spanish riding boot to England, collaborating with traditional artisans in Spain to create the Long Tassel boot, a favourite of the Princess of Wales. Her first full shoe collection was presented at Paris Fashion Week in 2002, and today her brand boasts four stores in London – in Notting Hill, Mayfair, Belgravia and Chelsea – and one in Stow-on-the-Wold in the Cotswolds. ‘My ultimate luxury evening would be spent under an African sky in the bush with my husband, far from human intervention. For me, the most luxurious meal is a barbecue cooked by my sons-in-law. My biggest indulgence is a regular massage. It’s a great reset for…

Just as she was about to play a woman whose libido is awoken following her diagnosis with terminal breast cancer, Michelle Williams made a surprising discovery: she was expecting her third child. “It would be a hard show to make while pregnant,” says the actress, who took an 18-month break, welcoming the baby – her second with husband Thomas Kail – in November 2022. Dressed all in white, her blonde hair slicked into a bob, the former child star tells how she couldn’t shake her desire to bring to life the true story of Molly Kochan in new Disney+ series Dying for Sex. In fact, so committed was Michelle, 44, that she signed on as an executive producer. The story, inspired by Molly’s podcast, explores how she left her husband…

As the wife of a Hollywood actor and a mother of seven children, Hilaria Baldwin could be forgiven if she sometimes feels a little overwhelmed. After all, she also has a thriving career as a yoga instructor and author. But, as she and her husband Alec star in their own reality show, The Baldwins, Hilaria tells HELLO! in this exclusive interview that she loves the chaotic family life they have created. Although life with their children – eldest daughter Carmen, 11, Rafael, nine, eight-year-old Leonardo, Romeo, six, Eduardo and Marilu, who are both four, and two-year-old Ilaria – can be hectic, Hilaria says she loves living with such a big family and all the responsibilities it brings. “I think I naturally do well with chaos,” she tells us. “I have…

They were briefly in the same city at the same time, but there was no reunion between the King and his younger son after the Duke of Sussex jetted into London for his latest legal battle, ahead of a surprise visit to Ukraine to meet war victims. Prince Harry’s arrival in the capital coincided with His Majesty’s trip to hospital for scheduled cancer treatment ahead of his state visit to Italy last week. Although they were within a few miles of one another, a reunion between father and son was said not to be possible. While the King and Queen celebrated their 20th wedding anniversary at a glittering state banquet in Rome, Harry, 40, was in the Court of Appeal, where his barrister argued that the downgrading of his royal…

As she celebrates her 51st birthday next week with her beloved family by her side, Victoria Beckham will be looking forward to her most successful year yet – her children are thriving, her businesses continue to boom and the ultimate accolade could be on the horizon. After years of hard work, her fashion and beauty empire has earned its reputation as a respected global luxury business. So, along with brand Beckham becoming a global phenomenon – seen also in the 2018 launch of husband David’s Inter Miami football team, his 2023 Netflix documentary Beckham and Victoria’s own show, scheduled for the streaming service this year – the sky is the limit for the former Spice Girl. In fact, Victoria, who was awarded an OBE in 2017 for services to the…

PROS IN THE KNOW You may not have asked, but the make-up maestros over-delivered. Read on for the beauty hacks you never knew you needed… PAT McGRATH’S LASH SECRET “This is a top-secret technique that we use a lot backstage when a designer asks us to do a ‘no mascara’ look. I’ll use a black mascara just at the roots, to add definition and frame the eye, before using a brown through the tips for the illusion of softness.” LISA ELDRIDGE’S CONCEALER TRICK “Using a touch of concealer to cut off the outer, downturned corners of the lower lip before applying lipstick can help give the illusion of a ‘happy mouth’. Apply your chosen lip colour as normal, using a lip brush to make skipping the outer, concealed corners of…
