‘I gave up everything and threw myself into this new adventure. There was no time to be afraid’ Pierre Sauvage’s Paris home is as inviting as it is impressive. The stately 18th-century mansion has the high ceilings, ornate plasterwork and panelling typical of a historic building in the city. But it is also overflowing with Mediterranean colour and warmth thanks to the vibrant rugs, upholstery and homeware that Pierre designs for his Spanish-influenced interiors company, Casa Lopez. “I really like houses, not as a decorator, but to live in, to enjoy,” he tells us. It’s something his friends are happy to confirm. Mathilde Favier, Dior’s VIP PR director, says: “I admire him for his refinement and his concept of comfortable living,” while fellow designer Carolina Irving, who also poses with him here,…

It has been 11 years since Abbey Clancy and Peter Crouch tied the knot, and now, in a world exclusive, HELLO! can reveal that they have celebrated their love by renewing their vows in a spectacular sunset ceremony in the Maldives. “We started as a young couple together, and now here we are with our four kids walking us down the aisle. I feel like the luckiest person on earth,” Abbey tells HELLO! as she and Peter exclusively share the full photo album from their unforgettable day, which took place on 17 December on a secluded private island at the Anantara Dhigu Maldives Resort, in front of the couple’s family and closest friends. Abbey, who turns 37 next week, and 41-year-old Peter were the proudest of parents, joined by Sophia, 11, Liberty,…

No stranger to top tens, Nicola Roberts was delighted to get three more, courtesy of the judges on the Strictly Come Dancing Christmas Special. The singer, who teamed up with professional dancer Giovanni Pernice (together above), called the experience “magical”. Writing on social media, Nicola thanked Giovanni “for being able to get the best out of me” and told followers: “I loved… getting a small taste of the fantastical world of Strictly Come Dancing.” Admitting that she had found learning the waltz a challenge, she added: “I hope I manage to make it look like the beautiful dance it is.” She need not have worried, as her performance scored highly with viewers as well as the judges – plus three special fans. Cheering her on were Nicola’s former Girls Aloud bandmates Nadine…

As a real-life princess, she had little need for costume jewellery, but Diana, Princess of Wales had a taste for the theatrical, and now one of the most dramatic pieces worn by the style icon is to be sold at auction. Owned by Diana’s friend, the publisher Naim Attallah, the 1920s crucifix pendant was lent to the Princess most famously in 1987, when she wore it to a fundraiser for the charity Birthright (left). The piece, known as the Attallah cross, added a flourish to her equally bold black-and-purple Catherine Walker dress, which featured an Elizabethan-inspired ruff. “Few people could carry this piece off, but Diana really could,” Naim’s son Ramsay says. “It was never worn by anyone other than her and hasn’t been seen in public since she died.” Due to be…

It was a back-of-the-net moment for women’s football when Lioness Beth Mead was named BBC Sports Personality of the Year 2022. Despite arriving at the glitzy ceremony in London on crutches, the England and Arsenal star was on top form as she collected her prize. Downplaying her contribution to England’s European Women’s Championship win (“I scored a few goals”), Beth (left) dedicated her victory to women’s sport, saying: “Let’s keep pushing, girls.” Her triumph was part of a hat-trick, with the Lionesses announced as Team of the Year and their manager Sarina Wiegman named coach of the year. The night proved an emotional one for former rugby league star Rob Burrow, who received the Helen Rollason Award in recognition of his work to raise awareness of motor neurone disease (MND). Rob, who was…

The period between Christmas and New Year can be a bit flat and leave you in need of a lift: unless, of course, you are Heidi Klum. After spending Christmas in Los Angeles with her four children, dogs Anton and Capper, husband Tom Kaulitz and his twin brother Bill (plus Bill’s dog Stitch), the model and TV presenter hit the road and headed to the outdoor paradise of Aspen, Colorado, for some winter sports action. No stranger to snow business, Heidi (above right) was joined by first-time skiers Tom and Bill. Sharing the fun with her Instagram followers, the America’s Got Talent judge posted a series of photos and clips, including a ski-lift selfie of the trio (left). There was also a video of the brothers in action, which Heidi captioned:…
