‘She is always my priority’ – KURT As Goldie Hawn gathered family and friends together for the 20th anniversary celebration of her charitable foundation, there was another anniversary on everyone’s minds, too: her 40th year with partner Kurt Russell! From the moment they set foot on the red carpet at Goldie’s Love-In gala, the loved-up couple did not disappoint, kissing, cuddling and reflecting – albeit differently – on how they make it look so easy after all these years. “She is always my priority,” a humble Kurt, 73, said of why they’ve gone the distance. Goldie, 78, has her own theories about the secret to their famous chemistry, and didn’t hesitate to spill the beans between posing for photos with family and famous friends like Melanie Griffith and Demi Moore.…

It’s been 40 years since I was last on ‘the boards,’” Robert Downey Jr. wrote on Instagram ahead of his Broadway debut, “but hopefully I’ll knock the dust off quick.” He needn’t have worried – the audience was on its feet after his mesmerizing performance in McNeal at New York City’s Lincoln Center, prompting the Marvel star to beam and blow kisses into the audience (top, with the cast). Befitting his Iron Man alter ego, the 59-year-old actor showed no sign of nerves ahead of his première as he held hands with his wife of 19 years, Susan (far right), 50, who looked stunning in a leather spaghetti-strap maxidress with peekaboo cut-outs. (The couple’s entertainment company, Team Downey, co-produced the play, which is based on the fictional life of Nobel…

She may be divorced from her royal husband, but Autumn Phillips showed that she’s still very much a part of the family as she cheered on her former sister-in-law, Zara Tindall, at the Blenheim International Horse Trials. The Canadian-born mom of two, 46, took along daughters Savannah, 13, and Isla, 12, whom Zara, 43 (above left, taking in the action alongside her elder niece), was thrilled to see. Their support seemed to help the Olympic equestrian, who made it into the show-jumping final on her horse Classicals Euro Star. “He is so quick and has a lot of jump and gallop, which is so exciting,” Zara told Horse & Hound. Savannah, too, had a win that day: she entered her German shepherd in an agility contest and saw him earn…

There’s a new royal baby on the horizon! “Her Royal Highness Princess Beatrice and Mr. Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi are very pleased to announce that they are expecting their second child together in early spring – a sibling for Wolfie, aged eight, and Sienna, aged three,” Buckingham Palace happily announced of the pending arrival. “His Majesty the King has been informed and both families are delighted with the news.” The exciting message was accompanied by two never-before-seen snaps from the parents’ photo album. In one, Sienna is seen from behind as she walks along a country lane, holding hands with her father and her stepbrother, Wolfie (from Edo’s previous relationship). The other image shows an overjoyed Beatrice, 36, being embraced by her husband of four years, property developer Edoardo, 40. Beatrice’s…

The children of Christopher Reeve are recalling the painful details of their late father’s life-changing accident. Supporting the release of a new documentary – Super/Man: The Christopher Reeve Story – Matthew, 44, Alexandra, 40, and Will, 32, opened up about life with their superhero father, who was left paralyzed and ventilator-dependent after a 1995 horse-back-riding incident. Will, a correspondent for Good Morning America, said his dad learned to ride for a movie role and developed a passion for it, despite a severe allergy to horses. The accident took place on a cross-country course when his horse stopped before a jump. “His hands got caught in the bridle,” said Matthew, “which meant he couldn’t break his fall and so he landed right on his head.” Christopher – who died of heart…

Known as the City of Love, the French capital lived up to its name, as models from the worlds of Hollywood, fashion and music opened Paris Fashion Week, dressed in romantic rouge and holding scarlet roses. The stylish nine-day event kicked off with L’Oréal’s womenswear Spring/Summer 2025 show, as A-listers brought elegance and glamour to the Palais Garnier opera house. Famous faces hit the runway for the annual Le Défilé show, which featured, among others, the brand’s latest global ambassador, Cara Delevingne. Models wore clothes by top designers and supported the makeup giant’s theme, Walk Your Worth, celebrating “women’s empowerment, inclusion and sisterhood.” “Beauty is a form of self-expression and self-empowerment,” Cara, 32, gushed in the days leading up to the extravaganza. “And I am so thrilled to partner with…

Jennifer Lopez GET THE LOOK Strolling through New York City, the 55-year-old triple threat is giving us all the fall feels in this inspired monochromatic ensemble. Known for her jaw-dropping red-carpet choices, the newly single Unstoppable star and mom of two proves that her street style deserves just as much applause. Earth tones are having a moment, and Jennifer nails the seasonal trend with a head-to-toe neutral outfit, pairing a brown structured Michael Kors blazer and a beige maxi skirt with a luxe latte cashmere Intimissimi top. But it’s the accessories – Le Specs sunglasses, drop earrings from Eéra, a covetable Hermès Havane Crocodile Birkin bag (a cool $50,000), embossed leather belts and knee-high Saint Laurent boots – that really take J.Lo’s look to the next level. The perfect combo…

BROWN BUTTER SCALLOPS Serves 2 INGREDIENTS • 8 sea scallops (U10 size) • kosher salt • freshly cracked black pepper • 1½ tbsp vegetable oil • 3 tbsp brown butter • 1 tbsp drained capers • 1 tsp finely chopped anchovies • 2 garlic cloves, smashed and finely chopped • 1 tbsp chopped flat-leaf parsley 1. Place the scallops on a kitchen towel and pat dry. Season all over with salt and pepper. (When cooking at home, I don’t remove the muscles off the sides of the scallops. They’re a bit chewy, but scallops are expensive, so I don’t like to waste any.) 2. Heat the vegetable oil in a large, heavy frying pan over high heat. Once the oil is very hot, gently place the scallops, bigger side down,…

STAR ESCAPES EXPLORE No trip to the sun-soaked isle (one of three that make up the Cayman Islands) would be complete without a day spent lounging on famed Seven Mile Beach (1) and frolicking in its azure waters.

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…

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…

Taking a page from his dad’s playbook, Cruz Beckham has fallen for a girl-band star! The 19-year-old son of David and Victoria Beckham turned heads at Paris Fashion Week by stepping out with his girlfriend of three months, Jackie Apostel. The 28-year-old singer-songwriter not only bears a strong resemblance to her boyfriend’s mom but also donned a Victoria Beckham slip gown – as did Cruz’s little sister, Harper (above right, with brother Romeo, far L) – to sit front row at the former Spice Girl’s Spring/Summer runway show. Sharing her excitement on social media afterward, Jackie gushed, “The most beautiful show and the most beautiful dress. Congratulations @victoriabeckham.” The fashion designer reciprocated, mentioning her son’s girlfriend in an Instagram Stories post and signing off with “kisses.” Born to Brazilian and…

She’s equally at home in royal circles, alongside world leaders – and down on the farm! The Duchess of Edinburgh made a new friend at the Mane Chance Sanctuary, a horse-rescue organization in the village of Compton, where she met Stumpy the chicken (left). Sophie, 59, did a quick change for the occasion, replacing her Gabriela Hearst blazer with a hoodie from the shelter, switching out her Jimmy Choo heels for a pair of no-nonsense boots and placing her Sophie Habsburg zebra-print handbag (right) safely to one side. The day trip saw the royal mom of two spend time at a disability charity and community centre before heading to Compton. A keen carriage driver and horse rider, who shared her love of all things equine with her late mother-in-law, Queen…

‘Meghan was lovely, and there was no pretense about her’ She knows how to make an entrance! The Duchess of Sussex had all eyes on her during a surprise solo appearance at the Children’s Hospital Los Angeles gala. Opting to recycle one of her most talked about looks for the special occasion, Meghan, 43, looked radiant in a red Carolina Herrera gown – the same one she’d worn to a New York City event with Prince Harry back in 2021. At the time, the dress made headlines of its own, with royal style fans calling attention to the “daring” neckline, which Meghan likely would not have chosen if she and Harry had not stepped away from their royal roles. The red-hot gown looked a little different this time around, with…

PUT A BOW ON IT The coquette esthetic made its debut last year, leaving a wave of ultra-romantic styles in its wake, and a few key elements continue to hold their ground. Case in point: bows. Whether as a sartorial detail or a standout accessory, this feminine shape is here to stay. Channel your playful, flirty side like Paris Hilton and opt for a handbag that celebrates the trend. WELL SUITED When in doubt, you can count on a blazer to make any ensemble look current for fall. According to online retailer Klarna, searches for the item have jumped by 44 per cent from last year, and it’s easy to see why.

If you’ve watched Dominic Skinner on Glow Up (Netflix), you know he’s a true creative. Despite working on the hit competition series with the biggest names in fashion and conceiving some of M.A.C’s most popular products as its U.K. director of makeup artistry, his mantra is still just to have fun. It’s a message that comes through in his new book, Dominic Skinner’s Glowography: A Practical Guide to New Makeup (out Oct. 15). As well as lessons in balance, symmetry and colour theory, he has come up with some imaginative challenges that will open your eyes to possibilities and inspire those who might be stuck in a rut with their beauty routines. “Sure, makeup can be something subtle that enhances your natural beauty,” Dom tells Hello! “But it can also…

‘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.…

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…

Where Angelina Jolie goes, her children follow! The actress had her three eldest kids by her side for the New York Film Festival première of her upcoming biopic, Maria Pax, 20, paired his sharp grey suit and tie with dark glasses to conceal facial injuries sustained in an e-bike accident this summer. Big brother Maddox, 23, looked equally dapper in all black, while their fashion-forward sister Zahara, 19, shone in an off-white satin halter dress, thought to have been borrowed from her mom’s wardrobe. Angelina, 49, has said she encourages her daughters (including Shiloh, 18, and Vivienne, 16) to raid her closet. “I’m like, ‘Oh my God, wear it and wear it better than me! Take it, it’s your turn!’” The belle of the ball on this occasion, though, was…

After a recent move back to her native land, Princess Madeleine of Sweden, 42, has given fans a treat, posting a rare photo of her six-year-old daughter, Princess Adrienne, experiencing the joys of a Scandinavian fall (right, with a four-legged friend). “Adrienne and Teddy are experiencing a crisp and cold autumn for the first time!” wrote Madeleine. The royal youngster (below, with her mother and father, Christopher O’Neill, 50, sister Princess Leonore, 10, and brother Prince Nicolas, 9) was raised in Florida, where the family moved in 2018. Their return to Stockholm comes at an exciting time as Madeleine’s brother, Prince Carl Philip, 45, and wife Princess Sofia, 39, are expecting baby number four – a new cousin for Adrienne and her siblings! Princess Madeleine’s sister is Swedish heir apparent…

Laughing in delight as a little boy grabbed his beard, the Duke of Sussex was in his element at the annual WellChild Awards. After a week in New York City, Prince Harry jetted to London to honour children and young people living with serious illnesses, as well as their caregivers. Hello! joined the duke ahead of the ceremony as he spent time with winners and their families, sharing stories of life with wife Meghan and their children, Prince Archie, 5, and Princess Lilibet, 3 (see page 38). But it was seven-year-old Noah Nicholson who nearly stole the show, as he and his mom, Tracy, were reunited with Harry five years after they first met at Sheffield Children’s Hospital. TOGETHER AGAIN In a family room at the glitzy Royal Lancaster hotel,…

As glamorous and celebratory as hats have been in my wardrobe, there is one black denim newsboy cap that heralds an empowering style evolution for me. In July 2022, I’d just started chemotherapy treatments for breast cancer when the esteemed Canadian milliner David Dunkley had a lovely little black cap delivered to my door. It was the most thoughtful gesture: David knew it was only a matter of time before my hair would start falling out, and this wee chapeau offered a chic, practical solution. I was charmed both by his thoughtful gesture and by the style of the hat itself, so reminiscent of the mod caps of my youth. ‘I immediately knew this hat would see me through the months of hair loss ahead’ But that style of cap…

As the air turns crisp and the leaves change, so, too, does our approach to beauty. Summer’s casual effortlessness has given way to bold, statement-making looks, with Google, Pinterest and Etsy reporting spikes in searches for “bold makeup” and “retro hair.” “Fall is a playground for self-expression,” says Lori Taylor Davis, global pro lead artist at Smashbox Cosmetics. At the same time, most of us could use a little direction, and Hello! is here to help. We’ve distilled the top red-carpet and runway trends into five categories. From playful hair accents to lipsticks and blushes, our experts break down the trends to watch for and how to recreate them. Whether you’re in the market for a fresh look or a tried-and-true classic, here’s how to face the new season beautifully…

PLANT-POWERED ACCENTS Greenery-filled interiors reached peak levels of trendiness in 2020, mostly due to the pandemic. Today, houseplants are still going strong, with a focus on “air-purifying plants” (a category that has surged in popularity by 850 per cent, according to Pinterest), so consider adding a philodendron, bamboo palm, golden pothos or Chinese evergreen to your collection. DREAMY ART One of the simplest ways to add personality to any space is with a bold art piece or a statement wall covered in wallpaper. Pinterest searches for “dreamy art” have skyrocketed, signalling a major shift toward oversized, eye-catching pieces that evoke an element of comfort and calm. Whether it’s an abstract canvas or a vibrant mural, larger-than-life art is the big mood this season. MOOD LIGHTING As autumn days grow shorter,…

If there’s one thing Paula Abdul is certain of in this life, it’s that she was born for the stage. “It’s the most natural place for me to be,” the recording artist and dancer tells Hello! Canada, adding that what she loves most is connecting with her fans. “Being able to express myself and let the audience in on things they maybe never knew about me, that’s the most joyful part.” Given her passion for showbiz, it’s no wonder Paula, 62, was devastated to announce that a recent injury had forced her to cancel her Canadian tour this fall. “It truly breaks my heart,” the California native said while sharing the news last month. The concerts would have put the “Straight Up” singer in the spotlight yet again – and…
