Sommaire pour January 17, 2022 de Hello! Canada

Happy New Year! We’re kicking off 2022 with a milestone birthday issue as the Duchess of Cambridge turns 40. It’s hard to believe it’s been 15 years since a 25-year-old Kate Middleton appeared on Hello! Canada’s cover as Prince William’s university sweetheart (1). “Their lives are so entwined that it is difficult to think of one without the other,” noted a source, and that bond would only strengthen over a few years, culminating in Kate’s fairytale moment as a princess bride at Westminster Abbey (2). Next came her first overseas tour, which saw the glamorous royal couple grace Parliament Hill on Canada Day and walk the BAFTA red carpet in Hollywood (3), with the new duchess leaving the most A-list of celebrities completely starstruck. “She was just lovely and warm,…

Most spouses call their other half “honey” or “babe” as a nickname. Not Jessica Chastain, whose husband, Gian Luca Passi de Preposulo, comes from nobility and, in Italy, is recognized as a count – making Jessica a countess! But she discards any formalities. “His name is beautifully long so I just call him, ‘Hey, you!’” jokes the Molly’s Game actress. The couple --who met in Paris in 2012 on the same day that Jessica found out she was nominated for an Oscar for her breakout role in The Help --will celebrate five years of marriage this year. (Guests at their 2017 nuptials included celebrity pals Anne Hathaway and Emily Blunt.) “I love being married and I never thought I would, but he is a spectacular human being,” says Jessica of…

‘She would say herself that she wasn’t born to be a public figure’ As she celebrates her 40th birthday, the Duchess of Cambridge is in her prime. Fulfilled as a wife and mother, she has also carved out a progressive role as a senior working member of the Royal Family. A decade into her marriage to the future King, Kate has shown the world that she can still surprise us, as she did last month when she took to the stage with Scottish singer Tom Walker at her Westminster Abbey Christmas carol concert, accompanying him, quite beautifully, on the piano (Kate was a keen music student at school). “I think she would say herself that she wasn’t born to be a public figure,” says a source close to the duchess.…

CAPRICORN Dec. 22 - Jan. 20 We enjoy watching time-lapse footage. It’s fascinating. But it gives us the impression that miraculous things (like flowers opening their petals) happen in the blink of an eye. In reality, situations evolve at their natural pace. If you’re feeling frustrated by the speed of your progress, I’d like to invite you to take a trip on my time machine that will whiz you into the near future. From there, you’ll be able to see the effects of the changes you’re currently making. They might be taking their time, but there’s no stopping them. TAURUS April 21 - May 21 What stops the good times from rolling? If only there were a simple answer! Maybe they just can’t keep moving in the same direction forever.…

When Nicole Power arrived at Toronto’s Gardiner Museum for her wedding, her fiancé, Adam Minster, was waiting outside. But she had told him in advance to keep his back turned until she was ready for the big reveal. “He was facing the museum as I was getting out of the car and our photographer was getting ready to capture the moment. Then there’s this group of people that are walking down the street and they recognize me from the show,” says the star of CBC’s Kim’s Convenience and its spinoff, Strays. “They were like, ‘Oh my God, Shannon’ – which is my character’s name – and they started taking pictures and asking for photos in the middle of our first sighting. We both started laughing and Adam was like, ‘OK,…

GET THE LOOK She may be just 23 but Elle has racked up years of red-carpet experience from her countless film and TV roles. At the season 2 première of her period comedy The Great, she shone in pink, with makeup artist Erin Ayanian Monroe perfectly complementing her dress by dusting sparkling shadow on her lids, adding flicks of eyeliner for emphasis. Her lips were enhanced in a rosy tone and her cheeks flushed with her signature blush. Elle’s magnificent updo, complete with two black bows, was the work of hairstylist Jenda Alcorn, who is also credited with creating the actress’s signature blond locks. Jenda leaned into nostalgia and gave a nod to the ’50s with this sweeping beauty statement. Fresh, fun and romantic. Huzzah!…

Last time we chatted with Eric McCormack, he was crossing his fingers for his son who had just auditioned for his high-school musical. “He got the part!” Eric says, two years later. “And now he’s in college for music. I think he’s found his passion.” It makes the Toronto native, who shares son Finnigan, 19, with wife Janet, think of how he followed his own dreams two decades ago when he moved to Hollywood – and landed the role of a lifetime on Will & Grace. Just last month, Eric, 58, was celebrated for that groundbreaking portrayal, among other career feats, when he received a Trailblazer Award at the Whistler Film Festival (where his new movie, Drinkwater, also premièred). I’D LIKE TO THANK … My parents were always supportive of…
