Brock Collection EMILY RATAJKOWSKI vs ROCHELLE HUMES British singer Rochelle edges out Emily for the win in this Brock Collection number, thanks to her shorter hemline — which gives the Victorian-inspired lacy dress a more modern finish. Giambattista Valli x H&M BECKY G vs SOFIA CARSON When it comes to this Giambattista Valli x H&M showstopper, less is more — à la Becky G’s styling. Sofia’s lace boots and blingy baubles compete with all the tulle and built-in opulence of the frock. Alexander Wang LAURA MARANO vs DELILAH BELLE HAMLIN While former Disney Channel cutie Laura looks all grown-up in this Alexander Wang zip mini, model Delilah Belle’s strappy sandals complement the sexy design better than prim pumps. Chanel KRISTINE FROSETH vs MARGOT ROBBIE Both beauties ooze sophistication in this tweed Chanel skirt, but…

Les misérables? Far from it! Anne Hathaway has secretly welcomed her second child with producer husband Adam Shulman, 38. The couple, who are already parents to 3-year-old son Jonathan, “haven’t revealed the name, or if it’s a boy or a girl,” a source tells Life & Style, “but now that the baby’s finally here, they both can’t stop smiling.” The Oscar winner, 37, announced that she was expecting in late July; however, her journey to motherhood wasn’t without its challenges. “For everyone going through infertility, please know it was not a straight line to either of my pregnancies,” she wrote on Instagram. Adds the source, “Anne is so grateful for her little bundle of joy and can’t wait to spend their first holidays as a family of four!”…

One thing that shouldn’t be too hard to figure out in the divorce? Dividing property. In September, Kim confirmed reports that Kanye had just purchased a ranch in Wyoming — he spent $14 million on the 4,500-acre Monster Lake Ranch in Cody — and said “his dream and his vision is to move there.” Kim then made it clear that a permanent move would never be in the cards for her: “I love LA,” she said. Specifically, Kim loves the $20 million home they bought in Hidden Hills, Calif., in 2014 that took more than three years to renovate and is now, thanks to luxury upgrades and the purchase of adjoining properties, the jewel of a compound worth a whopping $60 million.…

They wanted a break. Back in November, after a lengthy period of intense scrutiny and criticism, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle retreated from royal duties for what was supposed to be six weeks of intense family time with 7-month-old son Archie. Buckingham Palace further confirmed they’re spending the holidays not with regal relatives but with Meghan’s American mother, Doria Ragland, and that the plan had “the support of Her Majesty.” Circumstances have changed, though. Since their leave started, Prince Andrew, 59, unexpectedly stepped back from public duties in the midst of a messy sex-trafficking scandal — and, says a source, Prince Philip, 98, has been in declining health, leaving Queen Elizabeth II, 93, “beside herself.” Prince William and Kate Middleton, both 37, “have been left to pick up the pieces…

Though Tarek didn’t see Brayden and Taylor for Thanksgiving, he says that he and his girlfriend, Heather Rae Young, 32, and the kids are “going to do Christmas” together: “We always do family vacations.” And this is bound to be a happy one. On Dec. 10, Heather celebrated her romance with Tarek by posting their first selfie, taken the day they met earlier this year. “Little did I know,” the Selling Sunset star mused in the caption, “that day would be a defining moment in my life…. Our love story started.”…

Moving on! Jamie Foxx’s new girlfriend, waitress and fitness model Dana Caprio, showed up to his 52nd birthday party at Warwick night-club in West Hollywood on Dec. 10 wearing a ring on that finger, sparking speculation that the pair have gotten engaged after two months of dating and sending shock waves through Katie Holmes’ world. “Jamie promised Katie he’d settle down one day, even talked about marrying her a couple of times, but he never did get down on one knee,” a source explains to Life & Style. “Now, he’s ready to give up his wild bachelor ways for a girl he barely knows? Of course, Katie’s heartbroken.” The 40-year-old actress dated Jamie on and off for six years before officially calling it quits in May 2019 — and while…

Mystery (woman) solved! Matthew Perry was spotted getting into a cab with a pretty brunette in West Hollywood on Nov. 3 — and now, Life & Style can reveal that his date was talent manager Molly Hurwitz. A source says the 28-year-old has been a “rock” for the Friends alum, 50, amid fears he’s relapsed after years of struggling with alcohol and drug abuse. “Molly’s met all of Matthew’s pals and has even been to his penthouse to hang out with them and make sure he’s OK,” shares the source. “She isn’t a huge partyer and has been a very good influence on Matthew.” As for whether the pair are more than friends? “Molly’s told pals she’s single,” the source admits, “but those who know her say she has a…

This year, Kim Kardashian kept her holiday decor simple and sleek with just a hint of cozy. In early December, she gave her Instagram followers a peek inside her family’s home, revealing she’d repurposed many of the design pieces from her 2018 Christmas Eve party to line the hallways of her modern Hidden Hills, Calif., home with monochromatic displays of white abstract trees that evoke images of snow-covered outdoor scenes from a Dr. Seuss book. “I love these. They’re so whimsical,” she explained, “like Whoville, but all white.” Pure decorations and their accompanying twinkling lights can’t mask the darkness that’s taken hold of Kim’s marriage, though. As Life & Style previously revealed, the mogul walked out on husband Kanye West in October — and now the pair are at war…

Her smile spoke volumes. On Dec. 5, Jessica Simpson posted a photo of herself proudly holding a copy of her upcoming memoir, Open Book. “I have been approached many times over the years about writing a book,” she says. “It never felt right to me until this very moment.” But it may not feel right to everyone. Life & Style’s learned that Jessica, 39, details her tumultuous marriage to Nick Lachey, the scandals that have plagued her family as well as her own struggles with weight and alcohol in the tell-all — and she spares no one’s feelings in the process. “Jessica likes to shock, and she’s hoping her book will do just that when it comes out in February,” an insider says. “She’s not the least bit nervous about…

Kate was wildly busy during the first month Meghan took off. There were solo appearances at Shout’s Crisis Volunteer Celebration and The Nook Children’s Hospice in mid-November, followed by a Royal Variety Performance and BBC Christmas special taping with William later in the month. In early December, she helped the queen entertain NATO world leaders, took over Her Majesty’s Family Action charity patronage and put on a tiara to welcome diplomats to Buckingham Palace. “Kate’s totally stressed out,” admits a source. “She’s struggling to balance caring for her kids during the holiday season with her crazy schedule. She’s exhausted.”…

SHAYNA & RYAN AGE GAP: 17 YEARS Mornings are easier for Ryan Seacrest when on-again, off-again gal pal Shayna Taylor is around. Admitting the chef’s gluten-free pancakes are what first stole his heart in 2013, the host, 44, has since credited the 27-year-old with keeping him active, saying they “wake up an hour earlier than we used to so we have time together to work out.” Following a brief split in 2019 — during which he was spotted smooching a 24-year-old — the pair are seemingly stronger than ever, with Shayna calling Ryan “an inspiration.” LEO & CAMILA AGE GAP: 23 YEARS When Camila Morrone posted a series of pictures of Lauren Bacall and Humphrey Bogart on Instagram with the caption, “A love like this,” it was easy enough to…

Kevin Hart: Don’t F**k This Up BEGINS STREAMING DEC. 27 ON NETFLIX What happens when the laughter stops? It’s a question that this six-part documentary tries to answer as Kevin Hart reflects on the events that have shaped his life — from the controversy that cost him his Oscars hosting gig to getting caught cheating on his pregnant wife, Eniko, and the scary car accident that almost took his life. “It’s as real, as raw, as transparent as you can be,” the comic says of the special, which features interviews with family and friends as well as archival footage from early years. Dare Me DEC. 29, 10 P.M., USA NETWORK There’s no fear in fierce. Based on the best-selling novel by Megan Abbott, this twisted teen drama explores the cutthroat…

Plump and circumstance! Halle Berry appears to have gone under the syringe to disastrous results. “The trend of aggressively filling the cheeks is becoming ubiquitous in celebs, seemingly including Halle. It does not, in general, create a natural look,” notes Dr. Rian Maercks, a Miami-based plastic surgeon who hasn’t treated the award-winning actress, 53. Worse, “filler injections administered in the wrong places can actually speed up the aging process.” Luckily, there’s a solution. “Blending her volume in the high cheek next to the eyes and around the nose and mouth,” says Dr. Maercks, “would really enhance Halle’s features.”…

A baby at 50? Jennifer Lopez is hustlin’ to start a family with fiancé Alex Rodriguez after they tie the knot next year — and the actress is considering using a surrogate in order to make their dream come true. “While a wedding is still in the works, Jen and Alex thought why not get the baby plan in action,” dishes an insider. “A surrogate, like her pal Kim Kardashian has used, is the way to go.” Luckily, A-Rod, 44, and J. Lo’s blended brood — her 11-year-old twins, Max and Emme, and his daughters, Natasha, 15, and Ella, 11 — are also on board. Says the insider, “They’re just as excited about a new addition to their family!”…

Learning the Law In April, Kim announced that she’s studying to become a lawyer through a four-year apprenticeship program with established attorneys and is on track to take California’s bar exam in 2022. Running Multiple Businesses Kim successfully launched her own shapewear line, SKIMS, in September and in November revealed that business for her KKW Beauty and KKW Fragrance brands had “doubled in a year.” Raising Four Kids Motherhood has become a chaotic experience for Kim. “A house of four [kids] is wild,” she confessed in September after previously noting how “each one of my babies needs so much attention…. I can’t even begin to tell you what getting ready in the morning is like.” Filming a Show Even before the Season 17 finale of Keeping Up With the Kardashians…

She’s been exclusive with her husband of five years, Eric, since 2010. But in the mid- to late-aughts, Jessica’s love life made major headlines. Whether she was dating football great Tony Romo on the heels of his breakup with Carrie Underwood or getting a shout-out from fling John Mayer in Playboy for being, as he put it, “sexual napalm,” she seemed to be involved with nearly every bachelor on the A-list. And there’s no doubt many of her men will make appearances in Open Book. “Jessica does kiss and tell,” an insider claims. “Famous exes like Adam Levine, Johnny Knoxville and Jeremy Renner are all in there.” She doesn’t pull any punches, either. “She’s hinted to friends about infidelity,” shares the insider, adding that readers aren’t the only ones having…

One year ago, Christina Anstead rang in Christmas as a brand-new bride. Posting a picture of herself, Ant Anstead and their collective four kids two days after their Dec. 22, 2018, wedding, the Flip or Flop star shared her joy in the caption: “#BLENDED Christmas Eve love.” Christina, 36, has even more to celebrate this year. In September, she and Ant, 40, welcomed son Hudson together. And the baby’s first holidays couldn’t be merrier. “There’s a lot of excitement,” an insider reveals. “They decorated the tree as a family, and Hudson is obsessed with the lights and ornaments. The children all adore him. They’re one big, happy family.” SIBLING REVELRY Indeed, Christina’s kids Taylor, 9, and Brayden, 4, have already bonded with Ant’s children from his previous marriage, Amelie, 16,…
