PHOTOS: ED MILES, ALAMY for being a ‘peice [sic] of shit’, fond reminiscing about a time when people like me were burned… All your greatest troll hits. What had I done? Spoken at an abortion rights event, tweeted about it, attracted attention from individuals whose world views don’t tally with mine; one of whom – @CalvnstPhysics, whose avatar is a graphic of some monster robot blasting the earth with death rays – ratcheted up aggression in a way I hadn’t previously experienced. Oh, I’ve had Twitter grief before, damning and hard; but only from other women determined to prove they’re better at feminism than me. @CalvnstPhysics brought a whole new level of rage, twisted logic and awful spelling to proceedings. It started with the ‘burning’ tweet; I replied, pointing out…

PHOTOS: XPOSURE AS SOMEONE WHO once said of her ex, ‘I am so exhausted, I am honestly so done, I can’t do it any more’, you’d think Selena Gomez might steer clear of Justin Bieber. Cue a collective eye roll, then, when the pair were pictured apparently ‘reconnecting’ over organic coffee at Pure Joi in LA last week. They were then seen four more times, just as news broke that Selena, 25, had split from boyfriend of 10 months The Weeknd. According to insiders, the pair, who’ve had more stop-starts in their time than Brexit negotiations, are said to have ‘got back in touch’ to ‘make peace’ after Selena’s kidney transplant earlier this year to treat lupus. They started dating in 2010, split in 2012, were thought to have reunited…

PHOTOS: GETTY IMAGES, REX IT’S BEEN ANOTHER disturbing week for human relations, with both First Secretary of State Damian Green (above) and Defence Secretary Michael Fallon (below) caught up in a whirlwind of parliamentary knee-touching scandals and cries of sleaze and ‘inappropriate behaviour’. To some these acts might sound innocuous – Tory activist Kate Maltby describing a ‘fleeting hand against my knee – so brief it was almost deniable’ – but, to others, the intention is the real crime, the connotation and abuse of power. And this debate has raged all week. But these cases have serveedd a far more pertinent cause – – the theyy have raised a mirror to malee sexual behaviour, they’ve made ade us us re-evaluate how we interact t with with women. Handled correctly,, this…

'It has been discombobulating. Scary. Unfamiliar. But I also feel invigorated. I think a lot of people who were complacent are waking up and paying attention.’ The Oscar-winning actress Lupita Nyong’o is describing the conflicting, complicated feelings she has about living in the United States, her home since 2012, under Donald Trump’s presidency. ‘I still feel like a visitor, and my family is far away,’ continues the 34-year-old, who was born in Mexico and raised in Kenya, where her father, Peter, serves in the Kenyan Senate, and her mother, Dorothy, is the managing director of the Africa Cancer Foundation. ‘But my mother always encourages me to plant roots and get involved. She says, “Make wherever you go home for now”. So I’m trying to be more of a Brooklynite.’ To…

“GROWING UP PREGNANT FELT LIKE LIVING ON FAST-FORWARD I EXPERIENCED LOVE AND DEEP JOY LIKE NEVER BEFORE” Deirdre, with husband Gary and Oscar, now eight THERE’S AN OFF-the-shelf life story that society seems to prefer: finish school, get a job, find a boyfriend, get married, have kids. At 19, that was the society I’d been brought up in – and the life that I’d, however naively, presumed was my future. Fate had other plans for my boyfriend Gary and me – and the course of our lives was completely altered by a little pink line on a pregnancy test in the midst of me trying to become an actress, and him focusing on his music career in Glasgow. We’d been together for eight months. We used protection. But here we…

Reasons To Be Cheerful With Ed Miliband And Geoff Lloyd We were won over by the title, then stayed for the hosts. Not just for Mili-fans, this podcast is marketed as ‘about ideas’. Ed and Geoff interview smart thinkers from around the world, like Sadiq Khan and MP Jess Phillips. The Butterfly Effect With Jon Ronson After a summer exclusively on Audible, the author’s much-lauded podcast is now available everywhere. Telling the story about the world of porn across seven episodes, Ronson explores the far-reaching consequences of it becoming free online. Fortunately… With Fi And Jane Real-life friends – and excellent broadcasters – Fi Glover and Jane Garvey come together for this BBC podcast, based on the idea that they recommend the best bits of radio and audio they’ve heard…

TRUMP INSPIRES... dread and despair IT’S OFFICIAL: Donald Trump is bad for your health. A recent poll has shown that 63% of Americans are more stressed about the state of the US than more common worries like work and money. A shock 59% believe the current presidency is the ‘lowest point in US history’, which (in case you’d forgotten) includes World War II, the Vietnam war and 9/11.

Affordable designer clothing = fashion’s nirvana. So why weren’t we all whooping with joy when the Erdem x H&M collection finally went live in stores and online last week? Because within three hours everything had sold out – half of it seemingly into the hands of eBay traders who, before the day was done, were touting their wares for more than three times the price. It’s canny. It’s clever. It’s lucrative. But it’s also a bit mean. And frankly, we’re tired of it. After all, a designer/high street collab is the ultimate fashion democracy. And isn’t a democracy built on the idea that we all get a fair crack of the whip? Come on spoilsports, stop cramping our style.…

“FASHION IS WHAT YOU FEEL ABOUT LIFE. FASHION IS LOVE. FASHION IS PASSION” STEFANO GABBANA ‘THEY ALL WANT TO WEAR CROWNS!’ declares Stefano Gabbana of the 110-strong tribe of models –British Millennials, comprising aristocrats, socialites, sons and daughters of rock legends – that were rolling up for fittings. Last week, two days before their epic show that took place in Harrods’ Food Hall – a first for any fashion brand – I find Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana in a studio in Kensington preparing for the show, along with 100 staff who have been transplanted from Milan for the occasion. ‘It’s a dream for us,’ says Stefano. ‘Harrods, it’s an institution, it’s tradition, we LOVE tradition!’ Their catwalk show is merely the icing on the cake for this, their ambitious…

AFTER 17 YEARS, Christopher Bailey will be parting ways with Burberry in 2018 to ‘pursue new creative projects’, the brand announced last week. This is no normal designer shuffle but seismic news for the British fashion industry. Since joining Burberry as a virtual unknown in 2001 – when he was hired from Tom Ford’s Gucci – Bailey’s creative leadership (and the guidance of CEO Rose Marie Bravo, who hired him, and latterly Angela Ahrendts) has transformed the tired heritage house into a global luxury powerhouse with billions in revenue. 2001 Burberry was a dusty producer of outerwear and check scarves; 2017 Burberry is an empire and bellwether of Brit cool. Here’s how he did it. SEE NOW, BUY NOW For A/W ’16, Bailey merged the men’s and women’s collection and…

All parties and the PM need to stamp out sexual harassment, says MP Jess Phillips It has been a tiring and distressing week. I’ve heard hours and hours of stories, both directly and third-hand, about people (some who I know and love) being groped, feeling that they had to go along with things that made their skin crawl and, in the worst case, being raped and then silenced. I have walked past MPs who are carrying on their business as if nothing has happened and who thought sending sexual messages to a teenager who had come for a job interview was acceptable. It isn’t and I don’t know why this is being tolerated. Theresa May should act and say that if the kind of behaviour that would see a teacher,…

IT TOOK JUST ONE accusation and Kevin Spacey’s reputation as one of the world’s best-loved actors crumbled overnight. Last week, Star Trek actor Anthony Rapp claimed the 58-year-old had attempted to sexually assault him in 1986 – when he was 14. Spacey promptly apologised, insisted he did not recall the ‘drunken’ incident and revealed he was ‘now [living] as a gay man’ – the crassness of which was swiftly condemned. But there wasn’t just one victim. In scenes that are now depressingly familiar, Rapp was followed by others, including US film-maker Tony Montana, who claimed he was ‘forcefully’ groped by Spacey in a bar in 2003 (and left with PTSD for six months). Another man claimed the actor had whispered, ‘It’s big isn’t it?’ as he flashed him. A third…

Q ‘I have lots of loving friends who I’ve known for years, but after every night out I replay each conversation over and over in my mind, because I’m convinced I might have said something clumsy or unkind. It really spoils what should be a life-affirming, fun evening. Please help.’ ELEANOR SAYS: Oh, this is a doozy, isn’t it? You spend rich, fulfilling, laughter-heavy time with your best mates, only to tie your brain in knots later over things you might have said or done to show yourself up. I know this psychic dance well. Conversations repeat in your head long after you’re done being interested in them. In they burrow, like woodworm. I’ve convinced myself I’ve bored friends to tears, mortally offended them when I don’t hear back from…

On a clear day, the beauty of the water, towering limestone mountains and pine forests of deepest green is breathtaking. In summer, you can hire one of the wooden boats and gently row around the lake. Then head back to shore and the historic Hotel Pragser Wildsee (lagodibraies.com).…

THE BOY WITH THE TOPKNOT is a sure-footed one-off drama told from, but not uniquely about, one corner of the British Asian experience. Sathnam Sanghera is an overachieving Midlands broadsheet journalist who is failing at love. He’s somewhere on the amenably suburban spectrum between Caitlin Moran and Bridget Jones. Dropping into his family’s modest post-War Wolverhampton semi, he’s the professional golden child – the one who got away to a fancy education, job, flat and salary. He’s also hiding a fancy white girlfriend, Laura. Will he or won’t he come clean, breaking the heart of his besotted, stoic mother whose only ambition for her beloved son is to find him a nice Punjabi Sikh wife? Sathnam is a deceptively complex and satisfying protagonist, telling a small story with broad appeal.…

THIS IS NO TIME FOR politeness, after all, Gigi Hadid’s Maybelline Collection sold out in a single day in the States and the pre-sale at Boots was gone in just 90 minutes. So, if you’re reading this later than, say, 10.47am on Tuesday, you’ve probably missed the online drop of the supermodel’s 20-strong make-up collaboration. If not, stop everything and log on to grab your cult buys from the collection. Divided into two looks, East Coast Glam and West Coast Glow, taking cues from her time spent between New York and sun-drenched California, there are muted tones aplenty and a focus on a dramatic eye.

PHOTOS: AVALON, GETTY, REX, C AMERA PRESS, C ATWALKING.COM When Christopher Bailey leaves Burberry, who will take his place? The following designers are out in the fashion wilderness presumably waiting to get back in the game: Riccardo Tisci, who gave Givenchy its hard-edged sexiness; Alber Elbaz, who made you want to party in a Lanvin cocktail frock; and Hedi Slimane, who served up gritty glamour at Saint Laurent. But none of them would seem the most comfortable fit at Burberry, Britain’s most resoundingly British and only luxury goods brand. But there is one designer – also British, something of a fashion mystic, a taste-defining, brand-reviving, money-making creative who makes inspirational and real (as opposed to fantasy) clothes. Phoebe Philo, the woman who, over the last 10 years, has redefined Céline,…

SSH HOPPING: FENELLA WEBB. PHOTOS: JASON LLOYD-EVANS, GETTY YES WE KNOW it’s only November, but Christmas season is almost upon us, which means one thing: Christmas songs. Bloody everywhere. So it’s time to embrace the festive joy – and sounds. But while money-making Christmas hits (Mariah Carey is said to earn royalties of £376,000 every year from All I Want For Christmas Is You ) are usually the domain of uber-cheesy artists, this year the times they are a-changing. Instead of picking from Bublé, Mariah and Céline, this year you can choose from pop powerhouse Sia, who’s releasing her new album, Everyday Is Christmas, on 17 November, and Gwen Stefani, who’s holla-ing to the festive season with You Make It Feel Like Christmas (as well as a guest spot on…

PHOTOS: FELICITY INGRAM/TRUNK ARCHIVE ‘Say I don’t to a man who asks your dad first’ LAST YEAR, my life changed forever. The man I love got down on one knee, the night before my 30th birthday, and asked me to marry him. I say ‘asked me’, because I think it’s incredibly important that the decision about our future lives is one that we as a couple reach together. He did not, as tradition dictates, ask for my father’s permission first. We didn’t ask for my dad’s permission to fall in love or buy a house. And I haven’t asked his permission for anything in almost 20 years (even then, it was mostly about which pets he’d tolerate), so the idea of my boyfriend asking for his approval for us to…

HAIR AND MAKE-UP: NEUSA NEVES AT TERRI MANDUCA AGENCY USING MAC COSMETICS AND BUMBLE BUMBLE OUT OF THE CONFINES of a long-term, committed relationship, I’ve always found it difficult, if not impossible, to satisfy my desires. It wasn’t that I couldn’t find anybody to sleep with, rather that I was crippled by anxiety, shyness and shame that I, a woman, wanted sex. That was a man’s prerogative; or so society and popular culture had me believe. Over the last year, I’ve begun to understand that there are all sorts of versions and definitions of intimacy that don’t necessarily fit the narrow idea. Then came this month’s ForTheDickChallenge hashtag, being used by women from Erykah Badu to Insecure creator Issa Rae, and on through your average girl next door – to…

PHOTOGRAPHS HAARALA HAMILTON JERUSALEM ARTICHOKES Jerusalem artichokes are the seasonal and on-trend alternative to potatoes – they are brilliant roasted or blitzed up solo to make a delicate purée. Also called sunchoke, earth apple and sunroot (they are not related to the green globe artichokes), the knobbly root has a distinctive flavour – earthy, sweet, nutty and mild – that adds a delicious dimension to other dishes too. Plus Jerusalem artichokes are one of the best foods for prebiotics which, along with probiotics, help keep our gut healthy. Just don’t eat too much of it, as things can get a little windy!

Heather, The Totality Matthew Weiner (£14.99, CANONGATE BOOKS) FANS OF Mad Men know that, while much of the action took place in the office, the dysfunction of Weiner’s New York characters usually began at home. Here, he focuses on just one such family, the Breakstones, who arrange themselves completely around their daughter Heather, and how her much-feted perfection brings dark elements into their lives. Told in a filmic tone you’d expect from an esteemed script-writer and more the length of a novella (you could read its 144 pages easily in half a day), it’s an insightful little dip into a foreign world, filled with forensic details. OTHER BOOKS ABOUT FAMILY DYNAMICS Sharp Objects Gillian Flynn (£8.99, W&N) Gone Girl has come to define Flynn’s career, but before that came the…

© 2017 FOX AND ITS RELATED ENTITIES. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED. PROPERTY OF FOX THE PARALLELS BETWEEN now and the 1973 backdrop of Battle Of The Sexes have never been more obvious. As the women’s world number one tennis player, Billie Jean King (Emma Stone) stepped on court to battle it out against ex-men’s champ and serial hustler Bobby Riggs (Steve Carell), it was in the wake of sexual revolution and the rise of the women’s movement. Going toe-to-toe with her professional foe (but off-court friend) led her to be a feminist icon and the film follows the rivalry and resulting match which became one of the most watched televised sports events of all time. And for a very special one-off, the Grazia Collective Film Club is offering you the chance…

Because of the postcode lottery I’ve received no help for IVF (I’ve paid for two cycles so far). I’m not bitter, as I feel NHS resources are better spent on cancer treatments and hospitals. I live in a densely populated area and, as we are an ageing population, it means parts of healthcare have to be sacrificed. Ironically, I grew up in Scotland where up to three cycles are granted to infertile couples. One argument Emily omitted is the whole industry needs closer regulation. IVF clinics are businesses and charge large amounts for ‘add-ons’. Surely the NHS can’t be expected to meet these costs while cutting back on other areas of healthcare?

THE FERTILITY GAMBLE I’ve just read Emily Phillips’ Womb With A View (30 Oct) and it brought me to tears, as I am also cursed by the IVF postcode lottery. I was referred for fertility treatment when I was 34, after three years of trying for a baby. However, by the time I’d made it to the fertility clinic and undergone all the tests, I’d turned 35 – which is too old for funded IVF cycles in North Hampshire. I wish all clinical commissioning groups could have an equal policy for patients needing IVF. Can’t the budget be spread equally? I have written to my MP and am living in hope. Name withheld…
