This week, we’re sharing joyful news from Princess Kate, who officially confirmed on Jan. 14 that she’s in remission from cancer. Her honesty, strength and grace throughout her health journey have been nothing short of inspiring. Now, as she steps back into the spotlight with renewed gratitude and optimism, it’s heartwarming to see her embrace this next chapter with the unwavering support of her devoted husband, Prince William. Meanwhile, in California – home of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex – a very different story has been unfolding. Tragedy has struck in Los Angeles, where devastating wildfires have claimed lives and forced thousands to flee their homes. As the disaster’s reach continues to expand, Hello! contributor Gill Pringle – who has made Hollywood her home for the past 30 years…

When you’re Priyanka Chopra and Nick Jonas’s daughter, you get to celebrate your birthday on an exotic island! Ahead of her third trip around the sun, little Malti Marie Chopra Jonas had a whale of a time splashing in the crystal clear Atlantic Ocean and collecting shells on the white-sand beach. Mom and Dad had a pretty great time, too! “What an incredible way to kick off 2025 with some much-needed family time in the paradise that is Turks and Caicos,” wrote Nick, 32 – who’s ramping up for the Jonas Brothers’ 20th anniversary tour – on Instagram, along with a series of snaps. Spelling out her intentions for the coming year, his wife, Love Again star Priyanka, 42, posted on social media, “Abundance. That is my goal for 2025.…

Double the smiles, double the fun – Princess Josephine and Prince Vincent just turned 14! The youngest children of King Frederik and Queen Mary starred in new portraits (left) to celebrate their special day, with the Danish palace sharing that the photos were taken shortly after their father “had given his first New Year’s speech.” Born on Jan. 8 just 26 minutes apart, Vincent and Josephine made history as the first set of royal twins in Denmark. They were christened at Holmens Church in Copenhagen, with their full names revealed as Vincent Frederik Minik Alexander and Josephine Sophia Ivalo Mathilda – a nod to both family traditions and Greenlandic heritage. Since then, they’ve often appeared alongside their siblings, Crown Prince Christian and Princess Isabella, and parents – though it seems…

‘LIFE’S BETTER WITH GOOD PEOPLE BY YOUR SIDE’Michael MICHAEL BUBLE He may be approaching the big 5-0, but the Canadian crooner has still got it – especially in the eyes of his 37-year-old partner, Luisana Lopilato. “You know who thinks I’m so sexy?” Michael joked during a promo for the 2025 Juno Awards (which he will host in March in his hometown of Vancouver). “My wife. My wife thinks that every woman in the universe [wants me]. She’s like, ‘Wow, she’d like to have a piece of you.’ And it’s so stupid!” The fun-loving couple share not just a sense of humour but also several children: Noah, 11, Elias, 8, Vida, 6, and two-year-old Cielo, all of whom keep the “Home” singer on his toes. “Touring is how I stay…

THE PRINCESS OF WALES Expected to make a red-carpet return Anticipation is building for the Princess of Wales’s comeback at the star-studded BAFTA film awards. The Daily Mail quoted committee chairman Anna Higgs as being “very hopeful” that the royal mom of three, 43, will be by her husband’s side on Feb. 16. Prince William, 42 – who is president of the organization – appeared solo at last year’s gala, which took place a month before Kate revealed her cancer battle. ALEC BALDWIN Suing over Rust manslaughter case Six months after a judge dismissed the involuntary manslaughter case against him for the fatal shooting of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins on the set of Rust, Alec Baldwin is suing officials for malicious prosecution and defamation. The actor, 66, is requesting a jury…

LINER NOTES Leaning into the Audrey Hepburn esthetic, Ariana Grande wowed in a 1966 haute couture Givenchy gown that felt straight out of Breakfast at Tiffany’s. The Wicked star debuted freshly cut baby bangs and a richer chestnut hair colour with chunky caramel pieces. The highlights were a nod to Audrey’s iconic Holly Golightly character, fuelling rumours that Ariana is eyeing the coveted role. For her hair, stylist Gabor Kerekes created Ariana’s signature gravity-defying ponytail, wrapping strands around the base and sweeping her baby bangs to the side for a soft, face-framing finish. Her makeup, executed by Michael Anthony using her own r.e.m. beauty line, paid homage to vintage glamour. Her eyes were the focal point, with matte lids and a precise brown floating crease. A dusting of vibrant pink…

‘THEY RAID MY WARDROBE ALL THE TIME. I’M LIKE, “OK, WHAT’S MINE IS YOURS”’ Nicole on her daughters If her latest mother-daughter outing is any indication, Nicole Kidman could soon be facing some competition when it comes to making headlines! Honoured at W magazine’s Best Performances party, the Oscar winner was accompanied by budding model Sunday Rose, and the two couldn’t have looked more in sync as they hit the red carpet wearing complementary ensembles, both by Miu Miu. Nicole, 57, went business casual in a menswear-inspired look, while her 16-year-old – who resembles her dad, country singer Keith Urban – sparkled in a midriff-baring blue printed bralette and shorts set paired with black tights. Both let their long blond tresses flow – yet another sign of their kindred…

Admitting that she’s cried “too many tears to count,” the Duchess of Sussex wore her emotions on her sleeve as she took to Instagram to honour the memory of her rescue dog Guy – her companion of nearly a decade. “He was the best guy any girl could have asked for,” she wrote about the beagle, which she adopted in 2015 while living in Toronto. “I swooped him up and fell in love,” Meghan, 43, reminisced before looking back on major life events he was there for, including the filming of her show Suits, getting engaged – and later married – to Prince Harry, 40, and becoming a mom to Prince Archie, 5, and Princess Lilibet, 3. “He was with me for everything.” Meghan’s beautiful words were accompanied by a…

Zara and Mike Tindall had love on their minds while ushering in 2025 on Australia’s Gold Coast. The King’s niece, 43, and her husband of 13 years, 46, left behind England’s winter weather – as well as children Mia, 11, Lena, 6, and Lucas, 3 – for their annual trek to the Magic Millions equestrian and auction event. Zara not only won a friendly horse beach race (above) but also dazzled as an event ambassador in sky-blue Rebecca Vallance (right). “It’s so nice to peel off the winter coats and step out in the great summer fashion in Australia – even just for a short time,” Princess Anne’s daughter told Hello! She and Mike first met at a Sydney bar when he was competing in the 2003 Rugby World Cup…

Kieran Culkin had made a promise to himself that he wouldn’t be away from his wife and their two young children for more than eight days – and he really wanted to stick to that pledge. But when shooting of the final season of the hit drama Succession ran over by two months, it left him precious little family time before he was due to fly to Poland to film the comedy drama A Real Pain. Even the title of the movie seemed vexingly apt. “When I saw the schedule, I was like, ‘You know what? I’m out,’” recalls Kieran, echoing the glib tone of Roman Roy – the most outrageous of Succession’s battling media-empire siblings, whom he played in four seasons of the award-winning show. “I really tried to…

He’s been in showbiz for nearly three decades, but humble Canadian Allan Hawco has never really cared about being famous. “For me, it’s about getting the chance to become a better actor every time I get to do it,” he tells Hello! Canada. Still, over the years, the Newfoundland native, 47, has managed to build a loyal fan base, thanks in part to his role in the hit detective dramedy Republic of Doyle. “It’s a perfect level of fame,” he says. “I’ve got a group of passionate people who follow my career, but they’re not weird or intrusive. They’re supporters more than fans.” Allan often has multiple projects on the go at once, his latest being the brand new police drama Saint-Pierre, which sees him star as an inspector who…

Hugh Jackman and Sutton Foster have taken their onstage chemistry offstage! The dynamic duo – who dazzled audiences together in The Music Man on Broadway – were spotted holding hands during a cozy dinner date in Santa Monica, Calif., suggesting that this could be the start of a show-stopping next act. The sighting marks the first public display of affection between Hugh, 56, and Sutton, 49, who both recently ended their long-term marriages. Australian-born Hugh – beloved for his roles in The Greatest Showman and X-Men – separated from his wife of 27 years, Deborra-Lee Furness, in September 2023. The couple – who share two adopted children – announced their decision to part ways amicably, citing a desire for personal growth. Meanwhile, Sutton – a two-time Tony Award winner and…

‘THE IDEA OF BEING UNFILTERED, RAW, VULNERABLE HAS REALLY STAYED WITH ME’Amy Every chapter of parenthood comes with its blessings. And right now, Amy Adams is cherishing a new one – as the mother of a teenager. “One of the best parts is seeing the woman she’s going to become,” the actress recently told Today, reflecting on 14-year-old Aviana, the daughter she shares with husband Darren Le Gallo. “We planted the seed and now she’s growing into her own person. [We’re] getting to enjoy her in a different way.” Motherhood has been top of mind lately for Amy, 50, particularly because she’s taken on a role unlike any she’s had before. In the darkly comic horror flick Nightbitch, Amy – best known for wholesome characters like Giselle in Enchanted –…

James Middleton was in “peak” form during a magical ski getaway with wife Alizée Thevenet and their one-year-old son, Inigo. The younger brother of the Princess of Wales shared heartwarming photos from his alpine adventures, including an adorable picture of their toddler making his debut on mini-skis, bundled up in a blue snowsuit and matching sunglasses. “I can’t believe how quickly Inigo is growing up,” wrote James, 37. “I fear if I blink, I will miss it.” Also along for the ride (or slide!) were two of the family dogs, who added extra cuteness to the snow-filled scene. Reflecting on these special moments, James – who has struggled with depression – opened up about how winter once triggered the “January blues” in him. Thanks to his beloved pets, though, he’s…

It was akin to a public love letter. Sharing a stunning new portrait of the Princess of Wales as she celebrated her 43rd birthday on Jan. 9, the Prince of Wales posted a rare and touching tribute on social media. “To the most incredible wife and mother,” William began. “The strength you’ve shown over the last year has been remarkable. George, Charlotte, Louis and I are so proud of you. Happy Birthday, Catherine. We love you. W.” The prince’s heart-rending note accompanied an image of Kate looking relaxed and smiling, with her hands in her jean pockets, wearing a checkered scarf over a dark blazer and white shirt. The black-and-white portrait was shot by royal photographer Matt Porteous in the grounds of the Waleses’ Windsor home, Adelaide Cottage, last summer.…
