IF YOU’VE ALREADY binge-watched the new series of Bridgerton you’ll know that Charithra Chandran is the diamond of the show in more ways than one. On page 40, our cover star talks about the significance of joining the cult show and what really happened behind the scenes. And Bridgerton’s not the only TV we’re obsessing over right now. Selling Sunset is back with a new British cast member to stir things up (page 34) and we delve into the backstory of Sienna Miller’s dark new drama (page 24). Because yes, the sun might finally be shining, but we’re not ready to abandon our sofas just yet… @hattie_brett / feedback@graziamagazine.co.uk…

The noughties are officially back! "The lockdown years might have reignited our love of nostalgia, but right now 2022 is delivering the biggest time warp yet. Jennifer Lopez is once again sporting a ring with a huge, coloured diamond, courtesy of fiancé Ben Affleck, low-rise baggy jeans are in every supermodel’s spring wardrobe and Britney Spears has announced she is pregnant. If you told us this was 2002, we’d believe you. Frankly, we love it. Bring it all back, we’re plugging in our bejewelled Nokia flip phone as we speak…"…

PHOTO: GETTY ON THE 22ND ANNIVERSARY of her hit Oops… I Did It Again!, Britney Spears announced she was expecting her third child. ‘I got a pregnancy test… and uhhhhh well… I am having a baby,’ she wrote on Instagram. The news is a poignant moment for the singer, who for 13 years lived under a conservatorship that prevented her from marrying and having children, having been fitted with an IUD against her will. It’s clear Britney loves being a mother and she has a close relationship with sons Sean, 16, and Jayden, 15, who she shares with ex-husband Kevin Federline. Last March, she posted a photo of herself with Sean and Jayden, explaining she doesn’t often share pictures of them ‘because they’re at the age where they want to…

OTHER PHOTOS: GETTY, INSTAGRAM/ARIZONA_MUSE, RILEY.STUDIO, REVENVERT AS BOTH A MODEL and a climate activist, my relationship with clothes is complicated. When I started out in the industry, I was modelling the most coveted fashion in the world, helping to flog it to – well – you. But I realised that I didn’t know enough about these garments and the materials they were made from. I decided to educate myself. Curiosity turned to obsession as I learned about fast fashion, supply chains and the awful effect the industry is having on the climate. I saw that everything we wear comes from the soil, grown by a farmer.…

PHOTOGRAPH ED MILESHAIR & MAKE-UP: NEUSA NEVES USING SUUQU, DERMALOGICA AND INNERSENSE FOR HAIRCARE. LAURA WEARSBOTTEGA VENETA JACKET, £1,900, BROWNSFASHION.COM. NATIVE AT BROWNS: 39 BROOK STREET, LOND ONE OF THE GREATEST privileges of my privileged childhood was that I was taught I could be whatever I wanted to be. Nobel prizes, Oscars and Olympic golds were all mine for the taking, assuming I worked hard enough to get them. An over-imaginative child, my fantasies were unencumbered by practicalities (why couldn’t I be Prime Minister and the World’s Biggest Pop Star?). But in whatever guise I imagined my future, brilliant adult self, there was always one constant: of course I would have a husband and children. That was just a given, an inevitable rite of passage. Now I am 37, six…

‘This book was engaging, engrossing and the women were strongly written and believable.’ Bronwyn ‘What a delightful book. Unassuming, but poetic and engaging, we follow the stories of several women in one family. Although there is little action, Trigiani’s writing is stunning. Intimate and beautifully written, this novel will capture your heart and make you yearn for the sea.’ Michaela ‘A storyline that has originality and depth. A richly told and evocative novel that colourfully brings to life 20th-century Italy.’ Tina…

Have your say… Email us at feedback@graziamagazine.co.uk ■ Find us on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram @GraziaUK HIGH STREET HERO I really enjoyed Hello again, Helena (18 April) about Helena Christensen and Karen Millen. It took me back to the ’90s, when I was a transgender woman who’d just transitioned. That was a difficult time, with a lot of prejudice and lack of understanding; having been diagnosed with gender dysphoria, I had to live as a female prior to surgery being agreed. Karen Millen clothes made me feel confident, pretty and feminine. I really missed the brand when it disappeared from the high street so I’m delighted it’s back!

YOU MAY NOT have heard of Justyna Wydrzyńska, the Polish abortion rights activist currently on trial for helping another Polish woman have an abortion by procuring the necessary pills – mifepristone and misoprostol – for her. Justyna’s name has got a little lost in all the other headlines (Ukraine, Rishi Sunak’s non-dommed missus, cost of living, Will Smith…). So a brief precis: since January 2021, Poland has had some of the most restrictive abortion laws in Europe. Pregnant women are condemned to carry to term babies already dying in their wombs; in November 2021, a 30-year-old woman died of septic shock after doctors refused to abort the foetus she was miscarrying – a foetus that was known to have multiple unsurvivable defects – because they could still detect its heartbeat.…

WORDS: LAURA ANTONIA JORDAN. PHOTOS: GETTY, INSTAGRAM/KOURTNEYKARDASH SO KOURTNEY KARDASHIAN and Travis Barker are married. Well, ‘married’. Their not-legally-binding wedding took place at 2am in Las Vegas earlier this month, but there was a potent whiff of Camden Town energy to proceedings. Not just because the whole thing had the unmistakable air of inebriated hedonism to it, but also because of the clothes. For the bride and groom: night-time sunglasses and leather jackets, his sweetly emblazoned with the words ‘WHAT ARE YOU STARING AT ASSHOLE’. She wore a corset with cross embellishment; he had a studded belt (and no top). The look was a bit punk, a bit goth, a bit indie; mashed together it was all very Camden. Well, very Camdencore. A glossy, commercialised this-and-that, Camdencore is taking over…

Olistic the Label ‘This French brand has the last word on sustainable luxury, and does so with modern silhouettes, bohemian flair and innate femininity. Designed with natural, ethical materials such as peace silk (made without killing the silkworms as part of the process), wood fibres and upcycled luxury deadstock, its collections are created from 100% natural and organic-certified fibres.’ Just Female ‘Nordic minimalism, effortless chic. I love this Copenhagen-based brand’s bold colour palette. Clothes are made from planet-friendly fibres such as organic cotton, recycled polyester, recycled wool, lyocell or EcoVero.’ Another Tomorrow ‘My go-to for suits: these are investment pieces, made to last in organic cotton, Tencel and ethical wool. Each garment comes with a QR code detailing its supply chain journey.’ Yosuzi ‘The most beautiful straw hats known as…

Just two years ago, acting was simply a hobby for Charithra Chandran. A passion, yes. But more pastime than career. Now, she finds herself the breakout star of the new season of Bridgerton, aka one of the biggest TV shows of the last decade. ‘It was like finding true love!’ she says, wide-eyed and even wider-smiled from her west London flat. The Shonda Rhimes-produced Regency drama – adapted for Netflix from the much-loved series of novels by Julia Quinn – launched the careers of season one leads Phoebe Dynevor and Regé-Jean Page. And it’s set to do the same for 25-year-old Charithra, who’s been universally praised for her portrayal of Lady Edwina Sharma, the perfectly poised ‘diamond of the season’ who becomes embroiled in a messy love triangle with Viscount…

CHAIN REACTION Gold and a little bit gaudy (that’s a compliment), the ’80s belly chain is back - and better than ever. PARIS FASHION WEEK BELT UP Hardworking classics are a closet cornerstone.

DAILY DIAMONDS WHY SAVE DIAMONDS for a special occasion when you can have them every day? The definitive forever investment, diamonds deserve – and frankly, demand – to dazzle at all possible opportunities. Because won’t your work emails have a bit more sparkle when you catch a glint of Messika’s Move Uno ring flashing across your keyboard? And don’t you deserve the hint of majesty Chanel’s Plume de Chanel earrings would bring to even the most mundane of Monday mornings? And for the absent-minded among us, good news. A sense of occasion isn’t dependent on carats: crystals are equally capable at serving wow.…

PHOTO: SOPHIA BECK/ GALLERYSTOCK WOULDN’T IT BE good if, after the drama of teenage acne, your skin settled down and stayed the same all your life. Annoyingly, it’s not that compliant and, by midlife, can get rather melodramatic. Mine changed at 46. With perimenopausal skin you need to be more aware of changes and address them as they arise. As you hit 40 you should be ready to review your routine. For me, the aim isn’t to look younger, but better. Here’s what I’ve learned… »ACCEPT THE CHANGE As I went through the perimenopause (the five to 10 years before menopause) and my hormones fluctuated, my skin became more sensitive, dry, at times itchy, prone to surprise breakouts and redness and, of course, it lost its elasticity (you lose about…

SOMETHING STRANGE is afoot at Astor Place subway station, as close to a symbolic gateway to the East Village of Manhattan as you can get. Nadya (Natasha Lyonne) is standing on an empty platform, about to visit her cancer-stricken godmother, the only reliable relative she has left, when she fingers a cigarette in her packet. Should she or shouldn’t she? Nobody will see. When the doors open, she steps over the threshold to find everyone chuffing away. She blinks. Posters for Andrew Lloyd Weber’s Cats festoon the ad hoardings. Somebody is dressed, unironically – ie, not in a Grimes way – as a goth. Our trusty russet-haired heroine has walked straight back into 1982. In season one of Russian Doll, Lyonne’s character became stuck in a one-day playback loop, reliving…

On the Grazia Life Advice podcast, women worth listening to pass on their best tips on how to navigate modern life. Here, singer Foxes, aka Louisa Rose Allen, 32, shares hers… 1 You’re the writer, director and main character of your own life. I was given this advice by my therapist. At the time, my confidence was very low and I was dealing with anxiety and depression. She helped me see that I was the ‘author’ of my life: I had to take charge, and take responsibility. At the end of the session, she said, ‘When you look back at your life you want to be proud of it. You want to see that you pushed yourself and challenged yourself.’ 2 Don’t stand in the way of your success. This…

A SLAP IN THE FACE Regarding Will and Jada face their toughest challenge yet (18 April), Will Smith should not have resorted to assaulting Chris Rock. But I remember a famous US comic once said you should never make a joke at someone’s expense about something they can’t change. So clothing is fine but race, gender and medical conditions are not. There is a big difference between making a joke at your own expense and picking on someone else. A family member has Tourette’s and we get upset when comics think it’s OK to joke about this condition. Josie…

AHHH, SPRING. The tulips are blooming, evenings are lighter, there’s a flurry of bank holidays. Bliss, right? But balmy? Not quite. Getting dressed right now can be a challenge. What starts as a chilly morning can lead to a positively sweltering afternoon, before your al fresco evening turns nippy when the sun falls. What you need are multitasking outfits that will get you into the spring spirit without compromising on comfort. It’s all about playing with proportions and working with layers. Can’t wait to bust that skimpy slip dress out? Take your cue from Sienna and have a chunky, oversized sweater to hand. If your summer dress is side-eyeing you from your wardrobe, then do as And Just Like That’s Katerina Tannenbaum and wear it over jeans. And it’s time…

PHOTOS: JACOB WEBSTER WHEN YOU THINK of British estate agents, shiny suits and Foxton’s branded Minis probably spring to mind. A far cry from the glossy world of Netflix’s hit ‘docusoap’ Selling Sunset, which chronicles the dealings and dramas of a group of elite LA realtors as they sell mansions to the rich and famous. Thanks to next-level property porn and the often frosty dynamic between the impeccably dressed cast – which often explodes into full-blown fights – the past four seasons have been must-watch TV. Joining the realtors of The Oppenheim Group for season five – and proving that British estate agents can be every bit as glamorous – is 29-year-old Chelsea Lazkani. Raised in London, she moved to Los Angeles eight years ago with a masters in oil…

SIAN COSTELLO PAINTING COURTESY OF THE ARTIST OPÉRASPORT THEY SAY YOU shouldn’t mix business and pleasure, but doing exactly that has proven to be a winning formula for Danish duo Stephanie Gundelach and Awa Malina Stelter, the women behind OpéraSPORT. ‘During a holiday we discovered that we shared a dream of starting a brand and realised we had competencies that complemented each other,’ says Stephanie. ‘Our mission was to create a brand with circular design principles that was still aesthetically cool and sexy.’ The brand’s sustainable credentials include releasing collections in editions to limit excess production and using organic and recycled fabrics. As for the look? Asymmetric tees, slip skirts and quilted jackets are the kind of off-kilter, elevated basics you’ll turn to again and again.…

LIVELY LIPS And the bride wore… coral. Switch up more traditional shades for a peppy pinky-orange that suits all skin tones. Naoko Scintu, the make-up pro behind these looks, advises keeping eyes minimal with a textured glossy stain. FRESH FACED ‘A modern look is all about a fresh base,’ says Naoko, who prepped skin with Giorgio Armani Beauty Luminous Silk Primer, £36, and Luminous Silk Foundation, £44.50 – a glow-giving combo that stays put.

PHOTO: GAVIN LI IN THIS JEWEL of a novel, we hear the stories of three women from the Cabrelli family who have been cutting gems and creating jewellery in the Tuscan village of Viareggio for generations. Matelda is the family matriarch who knows she is reaching the end of her life and decides it’s time to reveal the secret of her mother Domenica’s life to her granddaughter, Anina. The story leaps back to 1920, when Domenica is a feisty 11-year-old and best friends with her classmate Silvio, aka the ostracised ‘Il bastardo’, so-called because his unmarried mother became pregnant by a man who already had a family. When Silvio is hurt by the town bullies, Domenica helps their local doctor care for her friend and realises her life’s purpose. Fast-forward…

Watch live… Derry Girls How much do we love these girls? Back for a third and final season, it may be the best British comedy of its generation – a joyful romp through ’90s Irish youth, set against but never defined by The Troubles. That’s how history works: laughter never stops. Mondays, 9.15pm, Channel 4 Catch up on… Grace And Frankie I’m going to miss Lily Tomlin and Jane Fonda’s tale of two unlikely friends whose husbands leave them for one another. For the final season, expect plenty of waspish laughter, vertiginously raised eyebrows, sage wisdom and, one suspects, many, many tears. From 29 April, Netflix Wallow in… Ten Percent The British version of Call My Agent features A-list cameos from Helena Bonham Carter, Emma Corrin, Dominic West, Himesh Patel…
