Fun is always a dead cert on Tindall family outings – and last week was no different as Zara and Mike got 2023 off to a winning start with their two eldest children, Mia and Lena. They may have been watching from the sidelines, but the adorable daughters of the King’s niece Zara and I’m a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here! star Mike stole the show at the races at Cheltenham on New Year’s Day. Clutching a betting slip, Mia had the most animated of expressions as she cheered on the horses at the Gloucestershire racecourse, while her little sister Lena was also swept up in the excitement, her mouth opened wide as she took in all the action. The dynamic four-year-old, whose white-blonde hair is strikingly similar to her mother’s, also…

She has been nominated as Best Actress at the 80th Golden Globe Awards for her compelling performance in her new film Babylon, and this week Margot Robbie, who has received two previous nominations but never won, will discover whether it’s a case of third time lucky at the dazzling event. “I’m just so happy, mainly because it means the film and everyone who worked on it is being recognised,” the 32-year-old Australian star, who wowed at the red carpet premiere in Los Angeles last month in a hooded minidress, said ahead of the 10 January ceremony. “This movie was such an ambitious undertaking. Everyone worked so hard and gave it everything, so to get this kind of recognition is wonderful. “For me, the best part of awards season is meeting and getting…

Making the most of beautiful golden sunshine, these stylish celebrities haven’t been suffering from January blues. Living the high life in Miami, presenter AJ Odudu looked happy and relaxed in a blue bikini and matching towel as she spent the day at the exclusive Soho Beach House. The 34-year-old former Strictly Come Dancing star posted an image of herself on Instagram and wrote next to it: “HELLO 2023! Healthy, happy & slightly hungover. Happy New Year!’ Down in the Caribbean, singer Lily Allen, 37, wowed in a cobalt bikini top and green bottoms as she enjoyed a holiday with her actor husband David Harbour in St Barts.

January is in full swing, which means it’s time for a brand-new troupe of celebrities to nervously lace up their skates as Dancing on Ice returns this Sunday. Last year we learned that actress Patsy Palmer, singer Michelle Heaton and The Wanted star Siva Kaneswaran are among the 11 budding skaters hoping to impress this year’s judging panel, made up of pro dancer Oti Mabuse, Diversity’s Ashley Banjo and Olympic skating legends Jayne Torvill and Christopher Dean. And now we know which professional skater each will be paired with. There’s not long left until show time and the celebrities will soon be slipping into their sequin-spangled Lycra and putting on their skates; with a dangerous discipline to master – not to mention the ever-present risk of slipping over live on national TV…

A cold may have kept her from taking part in the traditional Sandringham walkabout on Christmas Day, but for one of the royal family’s hardest-working members, the need to get back to business after the festive holiday was not to be sneezed at. Shrugging off any lingering symptoms, the 72-year-old Princess Royal appeared in excellent health when she made a colourful appearance at the Oxford Farming Conference. Princess Anne was attending the event as president of the Royal Norfolk Agricultural Association.
