Sommaire pour Issue 724 de Grazia

WE’VE SPENT the last few months talking to you about what you love in Grazia – and want from us going forward. We heard you when you said you’re worried about what’s going on in Westminster. So we’ve asked some of the smartest women in Parliament to give us their insider take each week on the issues that will affect your daily lives. You also wanted advice on taking ownership of your career, money – and yes, even the minefield that is WhatsApp – from women whose advice you trust. You’ll find them in abundance in our new Grazia Life Skills section. And, of course, you’re still searching for clothes, beauty products and stuff for your home that will give you a surge of joy – so we’ve introduced new…

A British judge sparked fury last week when he said he couldn’t think of a more ‘obviously fundamental human right than the right of a man to have sex with his wife’. It’s a statement that would make you roll your eyes if you overheard it in the pub, but coming from a judge it’s terrifying. Nobody has a ‘right’ to sex with anyone, be it their wife, husband or booty call. If people in positions of power perpetuate these dangerous attitudes, it risks taking us back to a time when marital rape was considered acceptable. Instead, how about remembering what’s really a fundamental human right – being able to consent to sex.…

1. Non-mover DRAKE AND MAXI SCARF A vibe originally pioneered by Lenny Kravitz (like you’d ever forget), reimagined last week by Drake in London. And, yeah! It still works! 2. Up ACCOUNTANTS Following some questionable choices in past husbands/boyfriends/fathers to her children, Khloé Kardashian last week resolved: ‘I should start to date accountants.’ 3. New in CAROLINE FLACK + DANNY CIPRIANI Planning a second date at the time of writing, though this particular rumoured affaire de coeur is happening at such a whack, they could well be engaged/over/denying everything by the time of publication. 4. Up WILLIAM ‘BILL’ S PRESTON ESQUIRE + THEODORE ‘TED’ LOGAN Bill and Ted, kind-hearted idiot savants, romantics, time travellers, lynchpins of a great ‛90s film franchise; ground zero on our enduring Keanu crush (krush). Because…

LAST YEAR (or for that matter, every year) Shrimps designer Hannah Weiland headed off to Italy for her summer holidays. ‘I love the beautiful colours everywhere: bougainvillea flowers, stripy parasols,’ she says. ‘And I’m obsessed with Campari spritzes – they’re so chic.’ Now Hannah is sprinkling some of that Amalfi coast glamour on the high street, with her new Warehouse collaboration ‘inspired by what I want to wear on a dream holiday’. She might have made her name with her candy-shop faux furs, but the Warehouse x Shrimps collab proves that Hannah is also adept at designing a knockout summer wardrobe. Gingham sundresses, straw hats, crochet cropped tops and ’50s-style swimming costumes headline a collection that reads like a love letter to endless summers. While she might love summer, Hannah…

PHOTOS: GOFF, BACKGRID SHE MAY BE enduring one of the world’s longest-running celebrity divorce battles, but Angelina Jolie doesn’t appear to be letting that affect her. Last week, a happy Angelina, 43, was pictured out in New York, shortly after it had been reported that she is set to join the hugely lucrative world of Marvel Studios, by starring in their next potential franchise, The Eternals . And insiders tell Grazia that ramping up her box-office appeal is all part of a new move. Sources say she is attempting to move the goalposts again in her divorce negotiations with Brad Pitt, 55, by sacrificing some of her future financial settlement in an effort to have more control over the children. ‘Angelina’s new plan is to make sure she is financially…

Lemur yoga, or ‘lemoga’ is totally a thing. At one Lake District hotel and spa, you can now take your morning session of downward dog with a side of leaping lemur, as the furry creatures have been deployed to liven up the stretching sessions. Animals can help people relax, according to the manager of the adjoining wildlife park, who said, ‘I don’t think you ever see an unhappy zoo keeper. We spend all our time with animals.’ Lemoga is just one of the many ‘meet the wildlife’ activities available at the spa, where £495 will get you an overnight stay at the hotel, two meals, a spa treatment and a lemoga session. Lemurs are very good at stretching, and if you copy the positions they tend to extend their furry…

Geri devastated fans around the world in 1998 when she announced she was leaving the band in the middle of their world tour. The band soldiered on as a four-piece, but it was never quite the same. In 2012, Mel C revealed there was a physical bust-up between her and Mel B: ‘Geri stepped in the middle to break it up and ended up getting punched in the face.’ The incident was blamed on Mel B having ‘too much port’. Mel C reportedly also threatened to sue Emma, Mel B and Geri in 2017 over the band’s reunion, claiming that they can’t be the Spice Girls without her.…

That’s why Labour MP Jess Phillips is tackling domestic violence legislation this week - even amid the chaos of Brexit ‘Every woman I know has suffered violence, myself included’ “I’m pushing for something vital to be part of the domestic abuse legislation that’s up for debate in Parliament. Currently, the law doesn’t protect all women living in the UK; it misses out some of the most vulnerable. If you come here as a student and get together with someone who beats the crap out of you, you have no recourse to public funds so you can’t go to a refuge. The same applies to any migrant woman who isn’t here on a spousal visa. I’m campaigning for our domestic violence policies to apply to all women. photo: andrew fox/the times…

PHOTOS: SHUTTERSTOCK. *FREEDOM ON INFORMATION DATA RELEASED AS PART OF BROADLY AND PALADIN’S ‘UNFOLLOW ME’ CAMPAIGN THE DUKE AND DUCHESS of Sussex welcomed their new arrival last week: @sussexroyal – a shiny new Instagram account on which they’ll share details of their engagements. Yet, on the same day, it was reported that, since the couple’s wedding in Windsor last May, an unprecedented number of people have been stalking the royals – a rise of 25%, with five of the 160 suspects being of ‘high concern’. A former royal protection head pointed the finger at social media, telling a newspaper, ‘The royals attract people who are fixated.’ Not just the royals, it would seem. Labour MP Harriet Harman recently addressed the rising tide of threats being directed at politicians, saying many…

We know beauty isn’t meant to be about rules and we should feel empowered to dip in and out whenever we please. But the thing is, ditching the rule book and falling into regular bad beauty habits can undo all the benefits of the rituals we actually enjoy doing. Put it this way, there’s little point applying multiple serums in the morning if you then sleep in a full face of make-up that night, right? But old habits die hard and breaking them can feel like a chore in itself. That’s why we’ve enlisted a panel of experts to not only explain what’s at stake for each of your bad habits, but also to give realistic advice about how you can kick these once and for all… PICKING OFF GEL…

This year Italy is celebrating Slow Tourism with the spotlight on lesser-known areas and exploring them in innovative ways. One is the Trenino dei Castelli – the Castle Train tour – which starts at Trento station. Tuck into a delicious breakfast of local produce on board during a scenic train journey of just under two hours through the orchards and meadows of Val di Non and Val di Sole to Mezzana. From there, it’s a coach ride to the historic castles of San Michele, Caldes, Valèr and Castel Thun. Also included are wine tastings at some of the region’s vineyards and, as the sun sets, enjoy a herbal tisane in the grounds of one of the castles. (Every Saturday from 20 April – 14 September 2019 except 27 April and…

On the way home, my husband, Ben, and I will have a conversation about what we’ll have for dinner. Someone said marriage is asking each other what you want for dinner for the rest of your lives. The second I walk in the door, I take my bra off, put my Sloggi bra, ’jamas and slippers on, get my hair clipped back and then thoroughly wash my face. The kids eat before I get home at 8.15pm. I like having something light like a chicken salad or a lentil soup that’s been cooking in the pressure cooker. On Fridays we always get a delivery. When I get my food shop I always have too many blueberries, so I freeze them, then put them in the NutriBullet with some full cream…

WORKPLACE TABOOS Well done Natalie (‘I didn’t tell my boss I was going through IVF’, 25 Mar)! When I talk to my IVF clients, we are commonly looking at fitting self-care into the stress of the working day. It’s so sad to see the lack of time to rest after egg collections and embryo transfers. Definitely time for change, so great to see this article. Avni Trivedi WHEN TWO’S A CROWD I completely agreed with Why it’s time to check your ‘couple privilege’ (25 Mar). There is nothing more annoying than ‘couple crack’, when people seem unable to exist without their significant other. When I was single, I always felt awkward when friends took their boyfriends everywhere and wondered why they never thought of my feelings. Now, I am always…

THE DREAM START to spring is cracking out the barbecue and ditching the opaque tights. The reality is closer to shivering under a beer-garden brolly and avoiding the snow, yes snow, that fell across the country last week. What you need for this weather that’s sunny one minute and stormy the next is a spring jacket that can take you from rained-out picnic to pub fireplace. Something in denim or leather will tick the box, but there’s a rather tantalising third option – the cargo jacket. You’ve already tried combat trousers, now it’s time to march your top half into a utility frame of mind. The cargo jacket’s wear-with-anything shades and practical pockets mean it’s fast becoming the most fashionable, not to mention easiest, way of sheltering from April showers…

And yet – for reasons that are now unfathomable – I cried the only time I wore one. It was 1999, I was 14 and everyone else at the school disco was dressed like a member of All Saints. My mother worked with Mary and she had lent me a tiny white skirt embroidered with yellow felt daisies. I hid in the loo for most of the evening, embarrassed by the…

THE INTERNET IN BRIEF Taylor Swift’s prison fan @LegitTayUpdates is a Twitter account detailing all the things Taylor doesn’t get up to. Its author, a 19-year-old Israeli woman, has been in prison for refusing to join the military. Celebs boycott Brunei A photo listing the hotels owned by the Sultan of Brunei is doing the rounds, with celebs such as George Clooney calling for a boycott of them as the Sultan has enshrined Sharia rule, which includes stoning gay men to death. Here it is: the first look of our new superhero When Ruby Rose was cast as the first ever (confirmed) lesbian Batwoman, some critics said she somehow wasn’t gay enough for the role. ‘Be the person you needed when you were young,’ she responded at the time. You’re…

Mirror, mirror on the wall… Who’s the fairest of them all? Silly question. Elle Fanning in Rodarte. Ingénue status: confirmed. One doesn’t make a fuss Any minor royal or blingy billionaire can bob on a tiara, but truly regal style is understated. Case in point, QEII’s gloves. Elegant? Yes ma’am. They also semaphore a readiness to do one’s duty. We bow down. Check us out! Leopard-print coats? Pah! For amateurs. Now you need to flex your check cred. Tartan, to be specific – the perfect mix of punky attitude and to-the-manor-born polish, as seen on Adele (left) and Chloë Sevigny.

MILLENNIALS ARE BAD, lazy cooks. That’s not my opinion; it’s what various surveys tell us. Last year, a self-reported US study found that Millennials were the ‘worst cooks of any generation’, while UK research revealed that there has been a 54% decrease in home cooking over the past 30 years. Relying on cheap, casual restaurants and Deliveroo, those born between 1981 and 1997 are eating out and ordering in far more than those who came before them. But when Millennials can be bothered to prepare a home-made evening meal, they are more likely to share it with others. Even as home cooking has declined, there has been a 9.5% increase since 2012 in consumers cooking to entertain friends. So, while Millennials are much less inclined than their parents were to…

STYLISH A decade old and now an icon, the Sicily is Dolce & Gabbana in a bag. Inspired by the duo’s favourite place in Italy, it’s sweet with serious spice. PRIZED In two sizes, each comes in a spectrum of carry-with-anything neutrals and punchy jewel tones, to gain cult status.

Why? It adds definition, it gives impact (without being OTT) to an otherwise natural look and, unlike its smudgy charcoal counterpart, it works for practically everyone. ‘I’m yet to meet a person who doesn’t suit a bronze smoky eye,’ says make-up artist Hannah Martin. ‘There’s something about gold, bronze and copper that flatters all eye and skin tones, and makes for the most mesmerising look when paired with dark brown or smudgy black liner.’ As for the rest of your look: ‘Brows should match the intensity of your eye, so if…

OVER THE LAST five years, we have been deluged by healthy cookbooks from fitness experts, nutritionists and bloggers. Of course any inroad to eating better and making good food from scratch has to be seen as a positive. But, when I think about which books I cook from regularly, the healthy cookbooks aren’t among them. Yes, occasionally, I’ll make a chia seed pudding or smoothie, but these aren’t my go-to recipes. In fact, I have a bit of disdain for the new age of ‘superfoods’ and the tasteless ‘healthier alternatives’ that have sprung up. I can’t stand kale and I’ve never eaten a cauliflower-base pizza. I’d rather eat a proper chocolate brownie than a beetroot one, and coconut yogurt tastes of soap to me. I don’t think you need ‘healthy…

The easy way to entertain at home DESIGNER MATILDA GOAD’S capsule tabletop collection for Matchesfashion. com, launching this week, sums up her way of entertaining at home. In a spectrum of rainbow colours, the wood-inlay and lacquered trays with a brass trim in her signature scallop detail are so beautiful they are sure-fire conversation starters. ‘I love having things on the table that are talking points, that start a discussion,’ she says. The trays, however, do more than get people talking. ‘It’s also about thinking of before, during and after a meal – making sure that there’s a special something from the moment someone walks in the door to when they leave,’ she says. The large tray doubles up as a tray for aperitif drinks as well as for cups…

Photos: Marco Vittur Each week we celebrate the love of a good snack, with genius ideas for eating for pure pleasure - either solo or with friends WE’RESNACK MAD. We used to schedule three square meals a day and anything we ate in-between was considered a slip-up, a foible, a sign we were screwing up our lives. Now, our cosmopolitan lifestyles dictate that we have a whole suite of snacks on hand; supermarkets are dense with wasabi peas, salted caramel rice cakes and houmous. Occasionally, we might fixate on the Instagrams of the organised and discover that meal planning is one of many things we should be doing. Our dinners would surely be slicker and our lives more correct if only we would work harder on Sundays, stacking our fridges…

ASK THE EXPERT How to curate your houseplants (and not kill them) Alice Vincent, author of How To Grow Stuff At this time of year, we want green around us. The amazing thing that happens now is places like B&Q, Lidl and Aldi start selling more houseplants – you can pick up such bargains. But a lot of people will just grab lots of little pots, put them wherever looks good in their house – then watch them slowly die. Putting a collection together, you’re better off choosing one big statement plant. You can’t go wrong with what’s known as a rubber plant. They grow quickly, which means they are cheap to buy big, and you can ignore them for a few weeks without watering. You can also look at…

SITUATED IN A WIDE VALLEY the surrounding Dolomites create a magnificent backdrop to Trento’s moss-covered city walls. The region’s capital exudes the laid-back charm that Italy is known for. Everyone gravitates to the atmospheric Piazza Duomo, the main square framed by the city’s Romanesque cathedral and Renaissance palazzos. Enjoy a drink in one of the cafes, then head to Buonconsiglio Castle, parts of which date back to the 13th century and which, as well as a historic monument, is a gallery. Beneath the pavement of the Piazza Cesare Battisti, see excavations of the Roman city that once existed; then explore the winding streets lined with lovely little boutiques. From the old to the new, a short stroll takes you to the city’s modern Le Albere district, designed by Renzo Piano,…

Good for Aidy Bryant! (The style star the red carpet needs – now!, 8 Apr). While most female celebrities are busy juicing, starving and slaving away in the gym to get into red-carpet shape, we have Aidy, who has no desire to be a seriously skinny starlet and is comfortable in her own skin. Her choice of fashion is fresh and upbeat – she may not have fashion designers rushing to dress her, but she can turn out a cool outfit on her own. Aidy is doing wearers of plus sizes a huge favour. She is living proof they can look as good as the stick-thin brigade. It should be illegal to call someone fat on the red carpet. And no casting director should be allowed to tell an actress,…

ANOTHER WEEK, another Hailey and Justin Bieber story to send the internet into meltdown. Of all the April Fools last week, it was undoubtedly the newlyweds’ fake baby announcement that grabbed most headlines and dominated social media. It sparked criticism that it was insensitive to those struggling to conceive; and then a barrage of support for the couple, with fans leaping to their defence. Whatever your personal reaction to the newlyweds’ ‘sonogram’ and pictures of Hailey in hospital, the furore proved these two are Hollywood’s most talked about couple. To say it’s been an eventful seven months of matrimony would be an understatement. While we’re used to seeing the fledgling super-couple make public displays of affection, argue and even cry – last week, Justin, 25, and Hailey, 22, appeared jovial…

GIGI HADID GOT everyone talking last week when she was pictured with a hitherto unknown male friend in New York. And while the supermodel was quick to play down rumours on Twitter that the two were dating, what eagle-eyed observers at Grazia got most excited about is the identity of the man in question. Because he is none other than Samuel Krost, the 25-year-old founder of a philanthropic streetwear label, but most famous for his appearance in Netflix’s smash hit documentary Fyre: The Greatest Party That Never Was , about Billy McFarland’s doomed 2017 music festival. Samuel, who worked as a booker on the disastrous project, became an unexpected sensation when viewers took to social media to point out his wisdom – and hotness. Indeed, he was even dubbed the…

LAST WEEK, we got to see how Kate Moss cooks, thanks to a British Vogue YouTube video. Didn’t make it to your Twitter feed? We watched it for you and here’s what we learnt… Up its bum… is exactly where half a lemon and half an onion are bunged to infuse a chicken with all the necessary flavours. A boiling water tap isn’t exactly in the same league as being able to rock a skinny black jean like no one else ever but, let’s face it, we’ve all grown up these days. Potatoes are best served chunky. We disagree with streetwear star Blondey McCoy’s request for chips rather than roasties, and have a hunch that a man named after a thick-cut ridged crisp has already dealt his cards with regard…

IT’S THE MOST divisive TV coupling in recent memory, with viewers firmly split into two camps. As Phoebe Waller-Bridge’s astonishing comedy came to its conclusion, were you rooting for Fleabag and the Hot Priest? This series has catapulted Andrew Scott’s sweary, J-Lo-loving priest to heart-throb status, but he’s not the only man ringing our altar bells. He is just the latest in a line of improbably handsome clergymen setting pulses racing. Derry Girls has swoony Father Peter; Grantchester recently swapped James Norton’s hunky vicar for Tom Brittney’s equally dishy one. It’s not Father Ted. So why are we suddenly hot for preachers? One theory suggests Catholic priests, in particular, represent forbidden fruit. The idea of violating celibacy holds a power. ‘There is a sense of intrigue, and for some, there…

HOW I WORE IT THEN… MAYBE BECAUSE IT is truly one of the most poetically beautiful pieces I own. Maybe because it’s spring and it’s fittingly one of the first pieces that comes to mind when I unpack my spring/summer closet, but after rereading Tim Blanks’ review of Christopher Kane’s spring 2014 collection, I’m convinced that my pleated botanical chart skirt is the perfect way to kick off this column. In his review, Blanks quotes Kane and says, ‘We live because of flowers and trees. They produce oxygen. But we take them for granted.’ His effort to redress that involved an emphasis on flowers’ reproductive capabilities – and their ‘inevitable correlation with women’. Let’s continue to bloom, ladies. Refreshing items in my closet is a great way to make a…

REMEMBER WHEN Ed Sheeran made a surprise cameo in Game Of Thrones? One shudders at the memory, if only because the doleful, misty campfire interlude by the nation’s favourite innocuous ginger busker was the first and arguably last time the franchise wobbled from its otherwise immaculate casting. A streamlined tier of executive talent has dripped from GOT’s end credits, making bona fide red carpet/cover star names of Maisie Williams, Sophie Turner, Lena Headey, Natalie Dormer, Emilia Clarke and fashion’s particular favourite, our very own towering inferno, Gwendoline Christie. As we enter the final half of the final season, six episodes of feature-length capacity, packed to the gills with the unique flavour of dynastic glamour and ultra violence, GOT ends the decade as it began. A peerless screen icon of the…
