Beauty has no age – and it was certainly never more evident than on the L’Oréal catwalk at Paris Fashion Week. Titled Liberty. Equality. Sisterhood. Because You’re Worth It, the show was a celebration of all women. And while the likes of Molly-Mae Hague, 26, Kendall Jenner, 29, and Cara Delevingne, 33 looked incredible, it wasn’t only showbiz’s younger stars that shone – with Gillian Anderson, 57, Helen Mirren, 80, Viola Davis, 60, and Jane Fonda, 87, also among the models. Gillian wowed the crowd in her stunning silver and black dress, while Jane dazzled in a figure-skimming metallic gown. Helen also looked incredible as she walked the catwalk in a chic silver jumper, with Viola pairing her classic Bardot dress with a bold red lip. The women were a…

While Victoria Beckham is usually the one digging her heels in and the least keen for a Spice Girls reunion, it seems like Oasis’s successful tour has inspired her to think otherwise. Sharing a video of the Gallagher brothers’ concert on her Instagram stories, Posh Spice, 51, wrote that it was ‘Tempting…’, while tagging all four of the other Spice Girls – Mel B, Emma Bunton, Melanie C and Geri Halliwell-Horner. Next year marks 30 years since their debut single Wannabe was released. That sounds like perfect timing for a trip back to Spice World……

Hot stuff Martine McCutcheon, 49, looked steamy as she posted a topless photo on Instagram, where she had nothing but a pair of black pants on, and her phone strategically held to cover up her modesty. Iconic body Olympic gold medallist Denise Lewis, 53, flaunted her incredible body in the new Icons campaign in collaboration with lingerie brand Coco de Mer. Posing in a selection of black lacy ensembles, she said she feels ‘sexier than ever’. Champagne Supernova Celeb besties Amanda Holden, 54, and Alan Carr, 49, looked like they were having a ball as they attended the final UK show of Oasis’s huge reunion tour. They certainly looked the part with Amanda in an Adidas tracksuit and Alan in a bucket hat, alongside Amanda’s hubby Chris.…

As a tiny figure, strapped into a harness, flew up into the air and did a somersault, the man running the trampoline at the fun fair smiled. ‘You can bounce for free,’ he told my six-year-old daughter Ellie. ‘You’re great for business!’ Ellie’s tricks had really attracted a crowd. Ellie was an energetic child and excelled at school but as she got older, I worried she was putting too much pressure on herself. She set goals and was an ambitious overachiever. I had to remind her that I was proud of her no matter what. Things hadn’t worked out with me and her dad Tony but we remained good friends and co-parents. He’d been taking Ellie skiing since she was aged three, and she loved it. Then, when she was…

Brush gently Noticed more hair in your brush lately? Hair shedding tends to peak during the autumn months and there’s a good reason for it. We spoke to award-winning stylist and CENTRED co-founder Kieran Tudor to get the expert lowdown. ‘Shedding is part of the natural cycle. We lose around 50-100 hairs a day. Seasonal shedding, especially in autumn, is common as more hairs than usual move into the resting phase before falling,’ explains Kieran. While it is completely normal, there are ways to help minimise autumnal hair loss – starting with the right brush. ‘Look for brushes with flexible bristles that glide without tugging. A cushioned paddle brush or a wide-toothed comb are kinder options for detangling,’ he says. Try the Denman D90L Tangle Tamer, £16, or FUL Wide…

As my daughter Charlotte arrived home from college, I could tell she was buzzing. ‘How’s your first week been?’ I asked her. ‘Really good,’ she replied. ‘I’ve made some friends.’ I’d recently divorced Charlotte’s dad, and looking for a fresh start, in July 2021 I’d moved us from Stoke-on-Trent to Abergele, Conwy, 100 miles away. But while Charlotte, 16, was settling in and finding her feet really quickly, I felt so lonely. I had a long commute to my job as a retail manager, which left me no time to socialise, and I’d find myself trudging round the supermarket, hoping someone would stop and chat to me. It made me wonder if I’d made the right decision. Then, four months on, I got call to say my dad was very…

Anya Taylor-Joy The Peaky Blinders actor, 29, stepped out in a custom, baby-blue dress by Dior, which featured a voluminous skirt with statement folded ribbons. Catherine O’Hara Who said you can’t have fun with fashion in your seventies? Certainly not Catherine, 71, who looked beautiful in a long-sleeved gown with an intricate black floral pattern. Katie Holmes Rocking all red everything, even down to her lip colour, Katie, 46, stunned in this matching dress and trench coat ensemble. Miquita Oliver Looking chic in champagne, the presenter, 41, recently wore a vintage Maison Margiela strapless dress. Her dainty necklace completes the look perfectly! Gwendoline Christie The Wednesday star, 46, wowed in a beautiful powder-blue Prada dress with lace detailing. The icy colour has got us feeling ready for winter. Ambika Mod…

The House of Windsor has weathered many storms. But behind Palace doors, a new crisis summit has thrown the most embattled branch of the monarchy – the Yorks – into fresh peril. Prince William, long known for his caution, is pushing for decisive action against his disgraced uncle Prince Andrew and his ex-wife, Sarah, Duchess of York. An insider tells Bella the heir to the throne is preparing a hardline six-point plan that could banish Andrew and Sarah, both 65, from the royal fold forever. ‘William is deadly serious,’ a source tells Bella. ‘He has no intention of allowing Andrew or Sarah to undermine the monarchy any further. He’s determined to draw a line under decades of scandal – no matter how painful the personal cost.’ Now, with over 100…

She got her big break in TV when she co-presented The Big Breakfast on Channel 4 in the ’90s, and since then, Gaby Roslin, 61, has been a queen of our television screens. She has regularly hosted Children in Need and The National Lottery Live over the years, and these days she gets us ready for our day as part of the Morning Live team, as well as with her Saturday-morning DJ slot on Magic Radio. On top of all that, Gaby is mum to daughters Libbi-Jack, 23, and Amelie, 18. With family life, a busy work schedule, and now a new book, Gaby tells Bella just how she juggles everything. Do you have to get up very early for Morning Live? Yes, I’m up at 3.30am, because I get into…

Lying in my pyjamas on the sofa, I reached for the cheese and crackers. It was March 2020, and I was four months pregnant with my first baby. Trapped in the house due to the COVID lockdown, I was combating my boredom by bingeing on snacks and greasy takeaway food. My husband and I were thrilled to be expecting, but on furlough from my retail job and struggling with my mental health, I’d been put on pregnancy-safe antidepressants. Along with my frequent snacking, the medication meant I was rapidly gaining weight. In July 2020, I gave birth to our gorgeous girl, Autumn, and it was love at first sight. I wanted to be the best mum possible but as the pandemic continued and we were forced to stay home isolating,…

Why go? It can be tricky to please everyone on a family holiday (especially awkward teenagers), but we have discovered a destination which should tick a box on everybody’s list. Moliets-et-Maa – on the coast of Nouvelle-Aquitaine in south west France – is a relatively undiscovered gem for UK holiday makers, despite boasting long, sandy beaches, great golf courses, hiking and cycling trails and lots of towns and villages to explore. Just an hour from Biarritz airport, this is a laid-back slice of traditional France that will cater for everyone. And with day trips to Bordeaux and San Sebastian within easy reach, there are plenty of adventures to be had. Secluded stay Nestled in a pine forest, Villas La Clairière aux Chevreuils has a selection of properties to suit groups…

If you thought the era of punk rebellion was behind us, think again. This new drama from the inimitable Sally Wainwright (of Happy Valley and Last Tango in Halifax fame), is a vibrant, funny and raw love letter to women reclaiming their voices, and instruments, later in life. Set in the idyllic countryside location of Hebden Bridge, the drama follows five women who, against all odds, form a punk band that becomes the catalyst for radical change in their lives. Here, the spectacular cast made up of Joanna Scanlan, Rosalie Craig, Lorraine Ashbourne, Tamsin Greig and Amelia Bullmore, tell Bella what it was like forming a real-life sisterhood on set as well as learning to play music from scratch… What drew you to Riot Women and made you want to…

After years of being plagued by diet woes, Coleen Nolan has signed up to be an ambassador for weight-loss medication company Voy following a health scare. ‘I’m 60 and was recently diagnosed with pre-diabetes. I knew I needed a longer-term solution,’ she says. ‘I want to live longer, happier, with my grandkids. I knew my weight would hold me back. I’ve been struggling with my weight for as long as I can remember. I did every diet and they all worked until they didn’t. I’d be on one diet or another only to lose weight but put it back on, plus another stone.’ Coleen adds, ‘This time it will be different. With Voy I found a programme made for me. I turned to Voy for their support, not just about…

No Hannah Doyle, 41, writer ‘It seems like the ultimate buzz kill’ The weekly shop. The after-school clubs. The pick-ups, the work meetings, the cleaning rota and the social calendar… Sometimes, my life feels like one long schedule. Don’t get me wrong, I love it! As a working mum of two, luckily, I am a natural born planner. In fact, I even ordered my 2026 diary in August this year. But there’s one thing this ridiculously organised woman absolutely will not be scheduling, and that is sex. There, we have found my line in the sand because surely needing to set a time and date for sex is the complete opposite of sexy? ‘Husband, it’s 9pm on a Thursday night. We’ve got a 30 minute window… pants off!’ I mean,…

You lost weight for summer and felt amazing, but now, slowly but surely, the pounds are creeping back on. Sound familiar? The rebound effect after dieting, where up to 95% of us put the weight back on, is a common frustration, especially for women over 40 whose bodies and hormones are changing. And now, with the rise of weight-loss injections, it’s happening even more. But there are ways to stop yo-yo dieting after coming off a diet or medication to help you stay trim. What causes the rebound effect? Firstly, let’s look at what happens when you come off a nonmedicated diet. ‘Weight regain after dieting is common for both physiological and psychological reasons,’ says nutritionist and weight-loss expert Kim Pearson (@kimmypearson). Physiologically, dieting – especially with too little protein…

Next time you visit your GP and they turn to look at you, it’s not just out of politeness – they’re using your face as a diagnostic tool. ‘The face can offer subtle but powerful clues about our overall health,’ says Dr Gareth Patterson (@theirishgp on Instagram). ‘As GPs, we’re trained to spot these signs, from dry, thinning eyebrows that may point to thyroid issues, to changes in skin colour that could reflect liver or kidney problems. The face is often one of the first places illness reveals itself.’ For example, when actress Amy Schumer’s newly full face was a cause for concern for online commentators, it caused her to seek medical advice. It turned out she had Cushing’s syndrome, a condition where the body produces too much cortisol. Puffiness…

A Place In The Sun Monday 13 October, Channel 4 For 25 years the sunny property series has been helping people find their dream homes abroad. It’s changed countless lives and inspired viewers too. ‘2016 was the statistically most successful year for me, as 100% of my house hunters made an offer on something I’d shown them,’ says Jasmine Harman, who has presented the show since 2004. ‘To date, I’ve filmed over 440 original episodes, which equate to approximately 1770 house tours!’ And co-presenter Laura Hamilton loves how invested they are. ‘I’ve stayed in one of my house hunters’ properties and had some over for dinner at my home in the UK.’ CHARLIE’S ANGELS SEASON 2 Thursday 25 September, 6pm, on LEGEND (watch on: Sky, Virgin Media, Freeview, Freesat, Freely…
