Today is the last day to purchase a ” Wimbledon white” handbag for almost half as much as it is for the fashion house royals Kate Middleton and Zara Tindall.

Now is the ideal time to start organizing your outfits as Wimbledon officially begins. Even those of us who aren’t attending this year can expect plenty of outfit inspo from the event, both on and off the court, if you have the chance to get tickets.

An all-white outfit that is in tune with the traditional tennis whites that the players wear is the simplest way to reawaken the Wimbledon spirit. For a limited time, Strathberry has slashed up to 45% off its “Wimbledon whites” handbags to complete your chic monochrome ensemble.

In a flattering pink midi dress with pockets and a seller quickly, Vicky Pattison stuns.

Strathberry is a firm favourite amongst the royals, with both Kate Middleton and Zara Tindall regularly spotted carrying bags that hail from the brand. In fact, two of their most carried bags are included in the sale, so you can copy their look for considerably less.

Zara has often been seen carrying Strathberry’s East/West bag, which she owns in a burgundy faux croc design and was most recently spotted with it at this year’s Cheltenham Festival. Fans of Zara’s bag will now be able to get the mini version for less, after it was included in the sale down from £455 to £296, saving you 35%.

Princess Kate, on the other hand, has several Strathberry bags which she wears on repeat, including the Mosaic bag and the Multrees Chain Wallet, which she carried just last week at the Order of the Garter. And good news for fans of the Princess of Wales ’ accessories, because they’re both included in the sale too.

The Mosaic Nano Bag is now £257, down from £395, whilst the exact clutch she carried at the Order of the Garter – the Multrees Chain Wallet in white – is now £192 rather than £295, saving you £100. If you want to snap up the royal-loved bags with the discount you’ll need to be quick, because the sale ends at midnight tonight (June 23) making now your last opportunity to save money on them.

The Midi Mayfair 2 from Aspinal of London is also available in a chic all-white colorway that would be ideal for Wimbledon. The Mini Mayfair, a small version with white faux croc, is available for £750, which is a must-have in Kate’s wardrobe, or for £550 for the larger version.

Make sure you don’t miss Strathberry’s flash sale, which you can purchase here, to get the royals’ exact looks for less, though.

Love Island star, Adam Collard, soaked up the sun on holiday with his fiancee, Laura Woods, who welcomed the couple’s son, Leo, into the world in January

Laura Woods and her fiancé, Adam Collard, look every inch the proud parents on holiday with their baby son, Leo. The Love Island lothario, 29, who started dating the sports presenter, 37, in 2023, can be seen snuggling up to the tot in the pool in adorable new snaps, as his little boy, sporting a sky blue hat, matching sun protector and tiny sunglasses, splashes about in a baby float.

Proud mum Laura shared a series of photos on Instagram of the family on their sun-soaked holiday, which include one of her holding Leo in the air, as he squeals with delight.

There is also a photo of Adam cradling his son as well as one of the tot grinning, wearing large, ear-protecting headphones, as the family make the most of their time away.

Laura recently praised Adam’s parenting skills in a sweet Father’s Day post. Sharing a snap of him and little Leo on Instagram, she wrote: “Happy 1st Father’s Day to this absolute DILF. Dad of The Year, no task too big or baby apparatus instructions too complicated.

“The way you and this little boy adore each other made me realise what it’s all about. Thanks for making my life.”

The couple began dating in October 2023 and shortly after going public with their relationship, Adam captioned a romantic snap of the pair on Laura’s birthday, saying: “Happy birthday you rockstar x.”

He later told The Mirror that his relationship with Laura had left him feeling as though he’s “living the dream”. He said: “It’s going great, you know. She’s amazing and we are having a lot of fun. It feels like I’m living the dream.”

Adam, who starred on Love Island in 2018 and 2022, and also appeared on Celebs Go Dating, previously revealed how their relationship began months after the pair first met.

Speaking on the Getting Lippy Gossip Show, he revealed he walked past the Sky Sports star, heading to an interview, but admitted the pair didn’t interact for months.

He explained: “I’d followed her on Instagram because I’d seen a Lionesses game or something like that and then I DMd her because she put like a funny meme on her story.”

Adam continued: “The funny part of the story is, for a football fan as well, I actually didn’t know who she was,’ Adam said. ‘Well I knew who she was as in I recognised and knew her face, but I didn’t know that was Laura Woods in terms of her.

“So I went in for a podcast… [and] she walked past me and the girl that was chaperoning us through was like, ‘That’s Laura Woods’ and I was like [shrugs] but she had her back turned to us, she was like miles behind us.” Adam then noted it was “fast forward months and months and months” before he tried his luck with the sports presenter.

In July last year, the couple announced they were expecting as Laura captioned a sweet snap of the couple holding their baby scan photo:: “Hey, baby,” alongside two pink hearts.

They were inundated by well wishes from their famous friends and followers as many told the pair how happy they were for them.

Brooklyn Beckham, 26, is no stranger to the odd business venture or two. Over the years, he’s tried his hand at cooking, photography and even ventured into the hot sauce business in a bid to increase his net worth

Despite his parents boasting an impressive net worth of £500million, Brooklyn Beckham is thought to have been told to find his own means of making money in a planned out strategy by David and Victoria Beckham to ensure their children understand the “importance of money”.

In a fresh swipe to the Beckhams, Nicola Peltz’s family are said to be “frustrated” with the couple for apparently not contributing to their son’s expensive lifestyle in California. Brooklyn, 26, has been embroiled in an alleged feud with his parents since his wedding to Nicola in 2022, with tensions escalating further last month when they failed to show up for David’s 50th birthday party.

Insiders accused the Beckhams of being “tight”, with claims the billionaire Peltz family pay for most of the couple’s lifestyle – including their £11million Los Angeles mansion. But the Beckhams have a very different approach to raising their children, instilling the “importance of money” in them from a young age, with Brooklyn taking on numerous jobs in recent years.

According to Celebrity Net Worth, Brooklyn’s net worth is thought to be around £7.9millon – a stark contrast to his wife Nicola whose is thought to be around £39million.

Here, we take a look back at some of the jobs Brooklyn has had over the years – from being on minimum wage to venturing into the hot sauce industry.

Barista

When Brooklyn Beckham reached the age of 15, he took up a job as a barista in a Kensington coffee shop, earning a humble £2.68 per hour. Due to his age at the time, he couldn’t work more than seven hours on a Saturday and was given an hour’s break after four hours.

At the time, fans were impressed with Brooklyn’s part time job, with one writing: “Good on Brooklyn Beckham who’s got himself a job in a coffee shop at 15 when he could just lay back in a life of luxury.”

But a source close to the family claimed it was Victoria and David who encouraged the youngster to take on the role, hoping to teach him the importance of earning money through “hard work”.

It’s not clear how long he worked as a barista, but it was thought to be a summer job in 2014.

Modelling

Thanks to his famous last name, Brooklyn earned his first modelling gig at just 15-years-old. He has since appeared in major publications such as Vogue China, Interview, New York Times Style Magazine, Dazed Korea and L’Uomo Vogue.

He’s also served as a brand ambassador for giants like Huawei’s Honor line and Superdry, reportedly earning a £1million campaign deal in 2021.

Photography

Arguably one of his more notorious career choices was his pursuit of photography in 2016. Brooklyn secured a high-profile placement with a top photographer for a Burberry BRIT campaign.

His hiring caused a lot of backlash in the industry, with prominent photographer Chris Floyd called Burberry’s decision to employ Beckham a “devaluation of photography” and “sheer nepotism”.

But it seemed Brooklyn had a passion for photography, announcing in 2017 that he would be pursuing a photography degree at Parsons School of Design in New York.

His first book of photography, titled What I See, received a lot of critique when it was published in June 2017. Social media users were quick to comment on the “terrible photographs and even worse captions”.

Random House defended the book at the time, insisting its target audience was his teenage fan base. In 2019, Brooklyn interned for British photographer Rankin, who has photographed the likes of Queen Elizabeth II and Kate Moss.

But he quit his degree a year in, and decided his pursuit of photography was not meant to be.

Cooking

During the pandemic, Brooklyn found his passion for cooking, leading to his 2021 online series Cookin’ With Brooklyn which received more criticism after it was revealed it took 62 professionals to create each episode, at a reported cost of £74,000.

Brooklyn had no training or experience with cooking, but said it was a passion. But it seems he’s kept up his hobby, still posting occasional recipes online.

He recently told People that his love language is cooking, and that he will “try and cook every night” for her. “I love cooking my wife stuff,” Brooklyn said recently, adding that Nicola likes to help in the kitchen on occasion and cook by his side.

Hot sauce

Brooklyn announced the launch of his new hot sauce brand Cloud23, available exclusively at Whole Foods shops in the UK, back in October. Cloud 23, named after the No.23 jersey his father wore at Real Madrid and LA Galaxy, comes in two variants – Sweet Jalapeno and Hot Habanero.

The sauces are on the pricier side, retailing for £14.99, and sales figure from the venture have not been released.
