Hello! Canada October 21, 2024

One of the joys of working for a global brand is that we’re able to bring you coverage well beyond what’s happening on our own doorstep. And when our team has exclusive access to our favourite royals across the pond, well, it doesn’t get much better than that! Earlier this month, Hello!’s U.K. editors spent time with Prince Harry as he attended the WellChild Awards (page 32) – a cause very dear to his heart. “From the moment he arrived in the reception room, he had an infectious energy about him, and there were no airs and graces at all as he chatted animatedly about his own children ahead of the event,” says chief content officer Sophie Vokes-Dudgeon, who reveals a little-known tidbit about the Sussexes’ kids. “Archie and Lili…

Growing up in Toronto and Florida, it seemed unlikely that Blair Bitove – director of business development for Dave’s Hot Chicken – would discover her future husband in Vancouver. But after a mutual friend “introduced” the pair online, she knew she’d found her person. Blair, 31, daughter of Randi and John Bitove – the man responsible for bringing the Toronto Raptors to Canada and CEO of investment management group Obelysk – met Jackson Safrata, also 31, while attending law school at Loyola University Chicago. After graduation, she returned to Toronto and Jackson was quick to follow, relocating one year after they connected. A whirlwind romance ensued, with Jackson – who is vice-president of capital markets at JLL – proposing in Italy last summer. The pair tied the knot in the…

‘I’m getting married! I’m very excited’ She was always going to make a grand entrance, and Lady Gaga didn’t disappoint her U.K. fans when she swept into the London première of her new film, Joker: Folie à Deux. The pop superstar and actress, 38 – who plays anti-heroine Harley Quinn – looked spectacular on the red carpet in a custom cherry-red Celine gown and matching bolero. Her hair and makeup were just as striking, with her blond locks replaced by a dark, chopped bob, set off with blue eyeshadow. Joining Gaga in Leicester Square were her co-star Joaquin Phoenix – who reprises his role as failed comedian Arthur Fleck in the Joker sequel – and her boyfriend, tech entrepreneur and philanthropist Michael Polansky, 46, to whom she recently became engaged.…

They’ve been married for a decade, but George and Amal Clooney still act like newlyweds! From the moment the glamorous duo stepped out of their limousine to the roar of cheering fans, making their way into the historic New York Public Library for the Clooney Foundation for Justice’s third annual Albies, there was no denying their passion for each other. Tuxedo-clad George, 63, couldn’t stop smiling beside his beautiful wife, 46, who dazzled in a plunging black Versace gown and Cartier jewels. Ever the gentleman, the affable Wolfs actor only had eyes for Amal as he held her close and clasped her hands before tenderly guiding her up the steps of the iconic building ahead of celebrity friends like Cate Blanchett, Meryl Streep, Jimmy Fallon and George’s The Descendants co-star…

While headlines will tell you that Demi Moore is making her return to the Hollywood spotlight, she isn’t sure that’s the way to put it. “It’s not like I ever officially left!” she says. “[But] I understand the sentiment and appreciate it.” There’s no denying that, at 61, the Ghost actress is having a stellar year. From her feisty role in the miniseries Feud: Capote vs. The Swans to her jaw-dropping performance in The Substance – which was the shining star of film-festival season – it’s shaping up to be quite the career resurgence for the ’80s leading lady. Despite being cast in a string of smaller roles over the years, the Charlie’s Angels: Full Throttle star hasn’t been the face of a major movie since 1997’s G.I. Jane. In…

When your parents are Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban, you get opportunities that other teens might not. But that didn’t stop Sunday Rose Kidman Urban from feeling a little stage fright ahead of her very first live modelling gig. The poised 16-year-old was both excited and nervous to walk the runway for Italian brand Miu Miu – in front of a star-studded audience – during Paris Fashion Week. “I’ve been wanting to do this for so long,” said Sunday, opening up about the experience in a video for Vogue and revealing a country twang (the family live in Nashville). “I was really stressed, [but] everyone here is so nice!” ‘PUSH-PULL’ Considering her famous mom wouldn’t even let her go to a fashion show until she turned 16, Sunday is definitely…
