Claudia Winkleman’s Strictly ring is a perfect Christmas buy from Kate Middleton-approved brand

During the Strictly results show last Sunday, Claudia Winkleman was wearing a statement ring from a Kate Middleton-loved jewellery brand, and you can still shop it

Strictly Come Dancing is known for its dazzling style moments, and it’s not just the dancers who steal the show. Presenters Claudia Winkleman and Tess Daly are equally as glamorous as the contestants. And, this year, we’re loving Claudia’s unique style more than ever.

With the new series of Celebrity Traitors airing at the same time as Strictly, we’re being treated to twice the fashion inspiration from Claudia. The presenter’s Saturday night Strictly ensemble seemed to take a leaf out of her iconic Traitors wardrobe.

Taking inspiration from that Highlands gothic vibe Claudia pulls off so well, Sinead McKeefry (Claudia’s stylist) opted to style the presenter in a black Self Portrait mini dress. The finishing touches came from a statement signet ring from Kate Middleton-approved jewellery brand Missoma.

With royal and celebrity fans from Kate Middleton to Sienna Miller and even Barbie herself, Missoma has secured itself as one of the jewellery brands to wear. And now it has the Claudia seal of approval, with the presenter wearing the Lucy Williams Square Signet Ring, £115.

The vintage-inspired signet ring features a black spinel gemstone, which Missoma says has a strong, empowering energy and aims to remove negativity.

The chunky shape makes this ideal for wearing on its own or layering with daintier pieces for a stylish jewellery stack.

With the Christmas countdown officially on, this is the perfect gift for sisters, mums, partners or any jewellery lovers in your life.

Judge denies bid to block former President Dina Boluarte from leaving Peru

A  judge in Peru has rejected a bid to prevent former President Dina Boluarte from leaving the country while state prosecutors investigate her for alleged abuse of office and money laundering.

Boluarte, one of the world’s least popular leaders, was ousted from the presidency last week when Congress voted 122 to zero in favour of her removal.

She left office with approval ratings ranging between 2 and 4 percent amid growing unrest over insecurity, as transport workers and young people protested rising extortions and murders.

On Wednesday, Judge Fernando Valdez struck down the request from Peru’s State Prosecutor’s Office in a hearing, arguing that Boluarte did not present a flight risk and the request was “unfounded”.

Boluarte, who faces a series of criminal accusations, has denied wrongdoing.

Prosecutors had sought to prevent Boluarte from leaving the country over investigations that she allegedly collected money from a criminal group and failed to notify Congress during a surgery.

In the latter case, Boluarte is accused of abandoning her post for two weeks in July 2023 while she underwent a rhinoplasty. Prosecutors say she did not notify Congress, nor appoint a caretaker president.

Other allegations concern questions of corruption: There has been scrutiny over the origins of her collection of luxury Rolex watches.

Her government is also accused of using excessive force against the deadly protests that erupted in support of her predecessor, Pedro Castillo, who was also impeached and removed from office in December 2022.

On the night of her removal from office last week, a crowd had gathered outside Ecuador’s embassy in Lima amid speculation that Boluarte could seek asylum with the neighbouring country.
