Supermodel Cara Delevingne among the 17 bridesmaids as her sister weds in star-studded ceremony

Model Poppy Delevingne was joined by a host of her showbiz pals as she tied the knot to long-term partner James Cook today.
The bride wore an unusual white gown which looked like a lacy, mini dress with sheer fabric attached to make it full-length. Sticking with tradition, she wore a veil in her blonde, curled hair.
After getting ready at Claridge's Hotel in London's Mayfair, she was helped into a car to be taken to her nearby church venue by her supermodel sister, Cara, who also wore white.

Spice Girl Geri Halliwell and TV presenter Trinny Woodall were among the guests seen arriving at St Paul's Church, Knightsbridge, London, this afternoon.
Earlier this week, Sebastian Shakespeare revealed in the Daily Mail that the 27-year-old had selected 17 bridesmaids to join her walk up the aisle.
Her sisters Cara, 21, and Chloe, 29, were undoubtedly among them, as well as a number of little girls who arrived in pretty white dresses with pale blue sashes and flowers in their hair. There were also a number of page boys dressed in white and blue and one little boy who appeared to be dressed as a teddy bear.
Pregnant Chloe wore a pale blue dress over her blossoming baby bump.
Although the bridal party wore white or blue, Geri also appeared to be in bridesmaid attire in her choice of a long, sleevesless gown in a shade of pastel pink.

Natalie Cassidy shows off some leg as she embraces the warmer weather in drop hem dress

It’s a well-known fact that when it starts to heat up in the UK, the clothes start to come off.

And on Friday Natalie Cassidy decided to do just that as she popped out for lunch during a break from filming EastEnders.

The 31-year-old gave passers-by an eyeful of her rather pasty legs wearing a black minidress which featured a drop hem.

Clearly feeling the heat the actress picked herself up an ice coffee which she sipped on as she walked, after paying a visit to Boots.

The mother-of-one wore her hair off her face, shades and a pair of flat shoes to complete her off duty look.

Natalie, who recently made a return to the BBC soap reprising her role as Sonia, currently at the centre of a lesbian love affair, despite previously quitting the soap over a gay storyline back in 2007.

Sonia, who is married to Martin Fowler, has been getting close to gay pal Tina Carter (Luisa Bradshaw-White) in recent weeks and the pair kissed after Tina comforts Sonia over her mum Carol's cancer.

This change in sexual orientation for Sonia may come as a surprise to viewers considering Natalie quit the soap in 2007 over a similar plot.

However, BBC bosses have assured Natalie her new lesbian storyline won't be salacious for the sake of it, and indeed, viewers have seen a genuine friendship grow between Sonia and Tina in recent weeks.

Cool customer: Natalie wore a pair of sunglasses and carried an iced coffee to keep herself cool

And speaking last month Natalie admitted that her decision had been 'a little bit naive' during an interview with BBC Breakfast.

Speaking about the soap, she said: 'I don't know where it's going to go, but at the time it felt right for Sonia to do that. Sonia's dabbled with women before in the past.

'When I was younger actually - I think it was a little bit naive, but when I was 21, 22, I was a bit like, "Oh Sonia wouldn't do that, Sonia wouldn't do that". As an actress and as the character I thought, "Well actually, I'm not sure if Sonia would do this".'

'Now, funnily enough, lovely Dominic Treadwell-Collins has invited me back - the exec producer of the show - and really it's lovely, because I've had that past and I've got that background, so that's why this works.'

Jeremy Clarkson's wife Frances indulges in retail therapy amid reports she's divorcing him

She is reportedly in the midst of divorcing her husband of 21 years Jeremy Clarkson.

But on Thursday marriage woes seemed to be the last thing on Frances’ mind as she hit the shops in West London for a spot of retail therapy.

And judging by the haul of bags she had on her it was a successful trip – perhaps picking up some garbs for a new wardrobe to mark the start of her single life.

Shop till she drops: Jeremy Clarkson's estranged wife Frances was seen shopping in West London on Thursday

The 52-year-old, who had a healthy glow following a recent trip to Majorca, was dressed down for her shopping trip in a simple jeans and T-shirt – glamorised with a Vivienne Westwood handbag.

According to recent reports Frances and her TV presenter husband – who has been the centre of a number of work related scandals recently – have been leaving apart for three years.

However despite trying to stay together, last month Frances headed to Majorca with her best friend to ‘toast’ the end of her marriage.

A treat or two: Frances was carrying a number of shopping bags with her - after clearly picking up some nice items

'Apparently Francie had a really jolly boozy time because she is finally getting a divorce from Jeremy and she was celebrating that,' a source revealed.

'All her friends have been waiting for years for her to do it and she finally has.'

A source close to Clarkson denied the 54-year-old had divorced and stressed that he remained married to his wife for now. But when asked if he was 'getting divorced', the source replied: 'Getting [divorced] and divorced are different.'

If the couple do finalise their split, Frances would be in line for a large pay out because she also works as his manager and has been instrumental in building his career – and his £30million fortune.

Standing beneath its distinctive insignia on Thursday, Kimberley appeared to be untroubled while catching the eye in a light, breezy cream cocktail dress that showed off her nicely toned legs.

The blonde TV personality completed the look with a pair of striking gold and white peep-toe heels, while her make-up was, as always, subtle and tastefully applied.

After a period of closure the fortress was finally reopened last year and Kanye has been hard at work organising the surprise wedding for third time bride Kim, Italian friends say

The venue has a tragic past - two young people fell from the ramparts in 2006 and 2008, prompting the authorities to close the venue

The venue, a fortress built for the ruling Medici family of Florence, is a spectacular setting for their nuptials.

The venue has a tragic past, however. Two young people fell from the ramparts in 2006 and 2008, prompting the authorities to close the venue.

It was finally reopened last year and Kanye has been hard at work organising the surprise wedding for third time bride Kim, Italian friends say.

The rapper has revealed he chose Florence because their daughter North was conceived there.

Kanye knows the city well because he has clothes for his label made in the city’s garment district and the couple holidayed there in 2012 to celebrate Kim’s 32nd birthday.

He continued: 'I think that our daughter North was conceived here among the Renaissance masterpieces.

Here comes the bride: Kim is still in the US while her fiance has been staying in Italy

'It was our first honeymoon. It is one of the most beautiful cities in the world—for me the most beautiful in Europe.'

'[I'm] very happy,' he said. 'I am a romantic: for Mother’s Day I gave Kim a wall of flowers. Family is everything for me, the antidote to the pressure of fame. Family and creativity relax me. I am happy to create for my family.'

West has been staying in Florence and quietly studying with fashion designer Ermanno Scervino.

He said Kim, 33, inspires him and said they turn to each other for fashion advice.

'I consult her on elegance and what I wear,' he revealed. 'And she does the same for me. Today as a musician I like to dress in a less showy way than in the past.'
