THE NEWS last week that people are getting so BAD at remembering to have sex they’ve started adding HAVE SEX to To-Do lists shocked me to my very core, because: People have To-Do lists? For real? As in: they write things they have to do down, in a list, in advance, and then they try to do them, one by one, ticking stuff off as they go along, until there’s nothing left to tick off, at which point, they start again? What crazy, uptight, self-deluding, self-regimenting insanity is that? ‘Can you believe To-Do lists are a Thing and people actually make them?’ I scoff to my noble colleagues in Grazia. ‘Well, yeah Polly,’ they say in half-quizzical, half-patronising harmony, looking at me like I’ve questioned the existence of sandwiches. ‘No…

IF EVERY YEAR throws us a curve ball style icon, then 2018 belongs to Hailey Baldwin. Or, as we should call her now, Mrs Hailey Bieber. Hitherto a bit part in the Kardashian-Hadid soap opera, as one half of Justinandhailey, Gen Z’s First Couple, this year Hailey has stolen the spotlight for herself – as much for her style as her high-profile husband. But if summer was all about sloppy, stoner-ish, slumbro garb (best enjoyed from a safe distance if you’re over 25), then winter throws us a different curve ball. As the temperature dropped last week, HB adopted a style that we don’t just appreciate, but actually want to imitate. Hailey is excelling at coat season. All the ease that has made her 2018’s queen of Cali casual is…

First, they were the most high-profile guests at the royal wedding, then it was reported that George and Amal Clooney had invited the Duke and Duchess of Sussex for a holiday in Lake Como in August. Next, Grazia revealed that the couples had spent time together at the Clooneys’ Berkshire home. Now, insiders report that George and Amal could be named godparents when Meghan gives birth next year. ‘Meghan met Amal through their shared UN connections some years ago, before she met Harry, and their friendship has evolved since then. Meghan really looks up to Amal.’ Harry and Meghan are expected to attend a dinner party at George and Amal’s home next month, with Barack and Michelle Obama on the star-studded guest list. And in an exclusive chat with Grazia…

SHE WAS ONE OF the star guests at the wedding of the year – her close friend Meghan Markle’s to Prince Harry back in May. But this week, actor and philanthropist Priyanka Chopra will marry singer Nick Jonas in a celebration so lavish, it could even rival the royal nuptials. Priyanka, 36, will wed the 26-year-old singer in a multi-day event in her native India, starting this Wednesday. Not to be outdone by the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, the couple have chosen the stunning Taj Umaid Bhawan Palace, the residence of Jodhpur’s former royal family, as their venue. Nestled in 26 acres of land, with 347 stunning art deco-designed rooms, it was recently named the world’s best hotel. The Chopra-Jonas celebrations are expected to include a Hindu ceremony on…

A seamless blend of cool elegance and unexpected warmth, its top notes of lily, white rose and white ambrette seed mingle with sensuous smoked incense, jasmine and sandalwood, and base notes of spiced amber, musk and vanilla orchid.

PHOTO: AUGUST IMAGES A FEW YEARS AGO, you’d boast about how late you’d gone to bed. ‘3am? Lame! We didn’t even get to the club until 4...’ Back then, sleep was something to take for granted – an unnecessary intrusion into the hedonism of our lives. By nodding off, we risked missing out on all the fun. Fast-forward to now and, oh, how times have changed. Sleep has become the ultimate status symbol, a precious commodity to be protected, at all costs, against invitations ‘out-out’ or late-night Netflix binges. The most envy-inducing evening plans these days are bath, bed and a good book. Of course, powerful women – from Sheryl Sandberg to Michelle Obama –have preached the benefits of an early bedtime for years. Whether it’s to fit in an…

NOTHING SAYS PARTY SEASON like a selection of glitzy new beauty products from Boots. The classics never fail us, so for our next evening adventure we’re coveting a red power pout paired with statement earrings, a brushed-up brow and bronze eyelids. But how to nail the look? A punchy red lip requires more than just the right shade to make the required impact. Start by exfoliating with e.l.f.’s Lip Exfoliator, then follow with Maybelline’s Colour Sensational Lip Liner in Brick Red, filling in after you’ve got the shape just right – this will help lipstick stay put no matter how many Cosmopolitans have been drunk. Follow with Yves Saint Laurent’s Rouge Pur Couture The Slim Lipstick in Shade 1 which is intensely pigmented and has a square bullet to make…

BOOKS: ALEXANDRA HEMINSLEY. PODCASTS: HARRIET KEAN. PHOTO: GETTY IMAGES A Different Drummer William Melvin Kelley (£8.99, RIVERRUN) First published in 1962, this lost classic has been reissued after journalist Kathryn Schulz wrote about finding a written dedication to Kelley in a secondhand book. Now, the late Kelley has become a publishing sensation with this dark but uplifting satire on what might have happened if the American Civil War had gone a different way. He even coined the term ‘woke’ and, despite the novel being over 50 years old, it feels as relevant as ever, sitting alongside the likes of The Good Immigrant, Slay In Your Lane and Becoming.…

I was speechless when I read this feature. How sad for her that she thinks this is good. I’m a successful businesswoman too, and have two fabulous teenage boys. My life, though busy and stressful, has been made richer by my supportive friends who have seen me through. I wouldn’t swap them for the world and my boys have seen first-hand the importance of building long-term relationships that aren’t superficial. I wonder Maria still has friends who are willing to slot into an annual diary!

John McDonnell, the Labour Shadow Chancellor, sparked a row last week when he said he’d never be friends with a Tory: ‘I can’t forgive them for what they’ve done.’ His is a sentiment now being shared across dating platforms, too. On the relationship app Hinge, it’s not uncommon to see, ‘Don’t bother getting in touch if you voted Brexit.’ But is this really the best way to bridge the political divide? If we defriend anyone who doesn’t agree with us, we’ll remain in our own echo chamber. Instead, surely it’s better we try to understand those we think are misguided? We’ll mutually increase our chances of living harmoniously. We might even learn something.…

1 IT’S BEEN TWO years since Angelina Jolie filed for divorce from Brad Pitt, citing ‘irreconcilable differences’. Since then, their extremely public split – dubbed the most acrimonious in Hollywood – has been marked by claims of assault, bitter negotiations and child custody battles. Last month, there appeared to be a new development when court papers revealed that Brad and Angelina would come face to face again in an LA court on 4 December. The trial, to determine who gets custody of their six children, Maddox, Pax, Zahara, Shiloh, Vivienne and Knox, would potentially go on for months, and was expected to ‘get nasty’, said reports. Angelina was apparently planning to bring up the 2016 incident on-board a private jet that led to the end of their marriage (plus a…

PHOTOS: PA Last week, the world watched in horror as Daniela Tejada, 27, pleaded for the Foreign Office to help free her husband, Matthew Hedges, after he was sentenced to life in prison for spying in the United Arab Emirates. He and Daniela have denied the allegations, saying he was in the country to research his PhD, but prosecutors insist Matthew confessed. The sentence was announced after a five-minute hearing where he wasn’t represented by a lawyer. Matthew, 31, a PhD candidate at Durham University, was arrested by UAE officials at Dubai airport in May and held in solitary confinement before being released on bail last month. Daniela accused the Foreign Office of failing her husband by putting UK interests above his right to freedom. But, after a meeting with…

THERE’S SOMETHING ABOUT the endless events and free booze of the festive season that can do strange things to even the most considered dresser. This time of year, out-out looks tend to veer between safe regulars (boring) or everything shiny/embellished/sequinned (too much). If you find navigating this sartorial minefield hard work, you’re in good company – so does Victoria Beckham. ‘I’ve been to my fair share of parties,’ she told Grazia last week as the Christmas decorations went up in her Dover Street London store. ‘So I know party dressing can be tricky!’ But years of being at the top of guest lists have taught VB a thing or two. Having found her confidence, and forte as a designer, Victoria has nailed the modern night-out wardrobe by amping up classic,…

PHOTOS: MEGA, SHUTTERSTOCK DOES JENNIFER LOPEZ exist in a parallel universe where time stood still in the year 2000? The 49-year-old’s skin and abs would certainly suggest so – as would her sartorial choices last week. Stepping out in Miami on the set of a music video, Jen was spotted sporting a flash of thong peeping out of her tailored grey trousers. It’s a styling move indelibly associated with the late nineties and early noughties. As anyone old enough to remember the release of Love Don’t Cost A Thing, and young enough to have gyrated to it, will remember – back then, wearing a G-string riding out of your low-slung jeans was a rite of passage into the worldly sophistication of adulthood. So is the thong, whisper it, back? Its…

’TIS THE SEASON of the novelty knit – officially. But this year you don’t have to wait for Christmas Jumper Day on 14 December to embrace statement sweaters, characterful knits are already out in force. Blame it on the catwalk. Blame it on the streetstylers. Or blame it on Mickey Mouse (who turns 90 this month) but cartoon sweaters are seriously stylish right now. Mickey ‘is super fashionable’, enthuses Opening Ceremony’s Humberto Leon, who hosted a fashion show at Disney earlier this year and has created a limited-edition range to celebrate the mouse’s birthday (Christopher Kane, Vans and Pandora have also designed Mickey homages). ‘I have always thought of him as the embodiment of joy,’ adds Coach’s creative director Stuart Vevers, who gave Disney characters a grungy spin for S/S’19.…

UNTIL I WAS standing in the corridor of my local hospital, out of hours, bleeding through my jeans, a few days short of 12 weeks pregnant, I had no idea what a miscarriage would be like. I had no idea how much it would hurt, or that the cramps would come in waves, like the beginnings of contractions. I had no idea I would go on to pass a recognisable embryo – smaller than a chicken’s egg. So much blood for such a tiny thing. I’m sorry if this is graphic, but what happened to me was graphic – and frightening. And it was made more so by the fact I had no framework for it; I didn’t know what was normal, if I was normal. Naively, I think I…

Surrounded by lush vegetation and linked to the ocean by an underwater cave, it’s filled with seawater for a refreshing dip in dappled sunshine, accompanied by darting fish. Heaven.…

Becoming Michelle Obama (£25, VIKING) Becoming is a great story, beautifully written. While much of it covers politics, Obama is just as winning on being a wife, struggling with fertility and the trials of being a teenager. A lesser woman could have presented us with something awash with bitterness or self-aggrandisement but this is the very opposite. On Freedom George Orwell (£9.99, HARVILL SECKER) Carrying this book around will not make you look smart: it will probably only attract bearded men wielding copies of Nabokov’s Pale Fire. But it will leave you smarter. A bijou collection of Orwell’s writing, including extracts from novels and snippets from his non-fiction, it’s a perfect starting point for any reader. Educated Tara Westover (£8.99, WINDMILL) Memoir of the year, this is Westover’s extraordinary story…

PHOTO: BBC IN THE WAITING ROOM of an Ealing funeral director, a devastated widow sits beneath a decorative sunset etching. It is the early ’60s, just before London began to swing. The macabre inscription reads: ‘A life well lived brings a happy death.’ But what of a life lived duplicitously, neck deep in secrets, lies and wilful mystery? Mrs Wilson is the work of the actress Ruth Wilson, a biographical retelling of the astonishing life of her grandmother. Mrs Wilson (Snr) returns home from work one day to the innocuous family semi to drop a bunch of daffodils in a vase. Her husband, busy at work at his typewriter in the bay living room window, goes upstairs, where he promptly drops dead, leaving her and her two sons prematurely without…

FRIENDS FOREVER My social life has changed being a working mum (‘To be a successful working mum, I’ve had to sacrifice my social life,’ 26 Nov), but it hasn’t suffered. Friends from childhood and school are my BFFs. I don’t often see them, but when we catch up, we reconnect in seconds. Friendships through the kids are ‘of the moment’ but bring me great pleasure. With work mates we know intimate details of each others ‘right now’ lives as we only connect from 9-5. What I don’t have any time for is me. Ha! I have to work hard at every relationship I have. Husband and sons aside (they deserve as much of me as I can give), I ‘work’ at relationships; parents, siblings, old friends and new and the…

PHOTOS: EYEVINE, BACKGRID, GETTY IMAGES The past few weeks have been tense for Brad and Angelina’s lawyers, desperately trying to get the warring couple to see eye-to-eye on the fate of their six children. Both have been fighting for custody (Brad wants shared while Angelina is reported to be arguing for sole, although her camp denies this.) How things could have possibly got this bad is something many in Hollywood are asking. After all, this is a place that prides itself on putting the phrases ‘conscious uncoupling’ and ‘amicable split’ into the pop culture lexicon. Angelina and Brad are living proof that time doesn’t always heal. Ever since that ill-fated plane ride in September 2016, the drama has only spiralled. From accusations that each party was leaking details of their…

WHEN MEGHAN MARKLE revealed she was pregnant in October, her estranged family were quick to comment. Her father Thomas told the press of his ‘excitement’, while her half-sister Samantha Markle used the opportunity – once again – to berate Meghan for ‘mistreating’ her father. And then they fell silent. Until last week, when Samantha made the shocking announcement that she is writing a ‘tell-all’ book, entitled Shadows Of The Duchess , to expose what she claims are Meghan’s lies. The book’s publication will coincide with Meghan’s due date. Meanwhile Thomas, Grazia can exclusively reveal, is also refusing to remain silent in the run-up to the royal baby’s birth. ‘Thomas is praying Meghan will give him one last chance this holiday season,’ says an insider. ‘He’s clinging to the fact that…

PHOTOS: GETTY IMAGES ANOTHER WEEK, another set of battles for Theresa May to reach some resolution in the Brexit process. Last Thursday she spent almost 40 minutes in Parliament defending her plan before any MP offered support. So, it’s perhaps not surprising, then, that one of the first people the Prime Minister appointed following a spate of resignations was Amber Rudd – a woman who has been described in the past as her ‘human shield’. Earlier this month, Rudd was appointed Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, after resigning as Home Secretary following the Windrush scandal. Despite Rudd last week seemingly contradicting the PM’s warnings that rebels could cause the UK to crash out of the EU without a Brexit deal (Rudd said in a Radio 4 interview that…

IN AN EAST LONDON rehearsal room, 13 perfect specimens of masculinity are pumping their hips, grabbing suggestively at their crotches and ripping off shirts to reveal impeccably toned torsos. One’s straddling a chair, gyrating in the face of its smiling female occupant; another whisks off his track pants and struts around in tight boxers. In the background, Ginuwine’s Pony, with its less-then-subtle lyrics, blares from speakers: ‘If you’re horny, let’s do it/Ride it, my pony/My saddle’s waiting/Come and jump on it.’ Welcome to the world of Magic Mike Live which, after an 18-month sell-out Las Vegas run, this week premieres at the 325-seat Hippodrome Casino in Leicester Square. The UK show has already taken £7.4m in advance sales and is sold out for months in advance. Based on Channing Tatum’s…

COULD MICHELLE OBAMA be the greatest fashion icon of our times? The outfit she chose to kick off her 12-stop book tour earlier this month to promote her memoir Becoming certainly suggests that. Part rock concert, part political rally, part chat show (she was interviewed by Oprah), the former First Lady of the United States appeared on stage in front of 14,000 roaring fans wearing an off-the-shoulder sequin top and high-waist trousers – all in white – the colour used to signify hope, openness and new beginnings. Oh, how we marvel at her relatability, her warmth, her empathy, her cleverness and charisma! Don’t we all want to meet her? Know her? Be embraced by her! (‘Always hugger-in-chief ’, as she calls herself on Instagram.) And aren’t we all in awe…
