dad has been reunited with his wife and son after launching a daring rescue mission to reach them in Ukraine amid the ongoing Russian invasion.28-year-old Ian Umney, from St Helens, Merseyside, had been an English teacher and a courier but left his job in a desperate bid to reach his Ukrainian wife Nelia and son Jonathan, two. Speaking on a TikTok video, Ian said last week: "I cannot sit here, while my wife and son are in Ukraine, and watch the freedom and safety of Ukraine be threatened by Putin."I took four days of stress, upset, hurt, and anger but now I have packed my bag, planned, written my letters."I’m now on the way to reunite with my family by whatever means."He went viral after news of his rescue attempt spread, and on Sunday he flew from Manchester to Krakow, Poland, before crossing the Ukrainian border in the early hours of Monday.

who made headlines last month for posing on the cover of Vanity Fair in a schoolgirlish Miu Miu crop top and miniskirt set, pushed the envelope more successfully this weekend in a Saint Laurent gown with an oversized silk bow at the neck (it was fun, but also elegant, while the Vanity Fair cover seemed an attempt to make a grown-up woman look like a teenager).There were also some memorable appearances at Milan Fashion Week: the eternally beautiful Julianne Moore, 61, at Bottega Veneta in square-toed mule sandals and Sharon Stone on the front row at Dolce & Gabbana in Milan in a crystal embellished suit (she told Telegraph head of fashion Lisa Armstrong that great tailoring is her secret to looking sexy at 63: “If you’re going to show skin, whatever your age, you want clothes you can rely on to stay in place.”)It is important to note that these women are not the type to have had their faces ironed into an unrecognisable approximation of their younger selves (I’m looking at you, Madonna). While these red carpet stars may have indulged in a number of tweakments and injectables, the overall impression is that they aren’t trying to hide their age; they’re just trying to look like the best version of themselves.Take Mirren’s hair: it may be white, but it is in such impeccable condition that she was able to wear it loose in a portrait released ahead of the SAG Awards last week.

Max Mara for almost three decades (Italians like continuity, even if that isn’t always reflected in their politics). Since he divides his time between the two countries, Griffith is well placed as an objective observer of a society that loves a sense of luxury but also ease and easy colours, although they don’t faint if they see brights. To this end, this season he drizzled clementine orange and yellow among the cappuccino and panna cotta shades and pulled off the happy Italian trick of designing cosy, androgynous clothes that still threw some feminine curves and gauzy fabrics into the mix. Fuzzy, muted outlines over hard lines and sharp angles.

Kulture Kiari Cephus doesn’t want to add another sibling to the family just yet, but that’s because her baby brother is more “perfect” than she could ask for. “You want me to have another baby?” the three-year-old’s mom, Cardi B, 29, asked her during an Instagram video shared on Monday. “No!” Kulture quickly responded, causing Cardi to inquire why.
