GIRL ABOUT TOWN: Catherine Zeta-Jones is a smooth operator

It’s been 26 years since Catherine Zeta-Jones first graced our screens in The Darling Buds Of May, but her face looked just as immaculate in this picture taken last week.

But why bother when she has a bathroom cabinet full of dozens of expensive lotions and potions? Catherine posted a photo of the cabinet, which I can see contains three £25 Lancome cleansers, a £70 Charlotte Tilbury moisturiser, a £153 Natura Bisse serum and four £45 Elizabeth Arden Intervene creams – and that’s just for starters. 

Not that I’m jealous!

A new series of the Netflix drama The Crown is due in November and the makers hint Philip has an affair

A sex scene in The Crown involving Prince Philip has been left on the cutting room floor for the second time.

A similar scene featuring the Royal couple – played by Claire Foy and Matt Smith, left – was axed from the first series.
