Petula Clark’s husband Claude Wolff has died at the age of 93 after a short illness.

The British singer, 91, announced the news on her social media page on Wednesday, admitting she “couldn’t find the words” to describe how she was feeling.

Petula wrote: ‘Our hearts are heavy. This afternoon Claude, my husband of so many amazing years, passed away, leaving us without words to describe this terrible emotion, sadness.

“Thank you, my dear children and friends, for giving me the strength to get through this overwhelming grief. Peace be with you, Cheri. RIP Claude Wolff (1931-2024).’

Petula’s Facebook post was flooded with messages of condolence in the comments section, as friends and fans sent their condolences to the star.

The actor and producer was known for his work in the film industry, working with his estranged wife on several projects.

Petula and Claude met in the 1950s and remained together for three decades before parting romantically but remaining married until his death.

The former couple met at the Vogue label at a meeting to discuss Petula’s liaison in Paris in 1957, where Claude was “immediately attracted” to Petula.

After the meeting, Petula was told that Claude would work with her if she recorded in French, and she agreed.

They worked together on the 1968 film Petula, in which Claude worked as a producer, and on Here’s Lucy, filmed the same year, where he was an actor.

Petula, who shares three children with Claude, spoke to the Loose Women about their unusual arrangement during a 2016 gig.

She said: ‘We are still married. Claude is the father of our wonderful children.

“We still live together, but he has his own life and I have mine, and somehow it works.”

“These things are hard to talk about in public, but it works.”

From 2012, Petula and Claude lived together in Switzerland. They are parents to their son Patrick, 52, and their two daughters Barbara and Katherine.

Despite her tryst with Claude, Petula found love again, although she admitted it wasn’t a “light bulb” moment like it was with Claude.

She told the Loose Women panel: ‘There’s someone there and it’s very nice and Claude knows about it. There is no secret.’

‘We became friends first and the romantic side came later. I think that’s pretty good too, because it’s not a frantic passion. It’s good to be friends with your husband!’

In 2016, Petula told The Daily Mail of her husband: ‘He’s in Geneva and I’ll see him when I go back. It is funny. Life does these things to us.

‘Of course it’s painful to think that something so wonderful had changed, but he has his life and I have mine. We have three wonderful children together and we love each other very much.

‘It’s just different now. It may not be perfect, but we’ll make the best of it.’

They went their separate ways in the 1980s and have remained close ever since and have never divorced. Claude also found a new partner, but they remained tight-lipped about the identity of their new loves.

During an interview with the Daily Mail in 2013, Petula said she believed her busy career was “preventing her from being a good mother.”

She said: ‘I wasn’t a good mother because I was away so much. I tried my best to be the perfect mother, the perfect wife and a great artist.

‘I thought I could do it all, but I can’t. Sorry, but that’s just not possible. I tried hard, but being a parent and getting married is a full-time job.”

On leaving her children behind to perform, she said: “Emotionally, every time I had to leave it was quite a shock, and I think the whole sad thing of saying goodbye to the children so often stayed with the children for years .

“I used to rush home whenever I could and turn down a lot of job offers so I could be with them, but I still had to earn a living.

“Whatever wrong I did back then, I hope I’ve been able to put it right since then.” Petula first stepped on stage at the age of six and went on to become one of the most successful British female artists in history, with more than 68 million records sold worldwide and a string of number one hits, including I Know A Place .’

Kanye West’s wife Bianca Censori stunned in a daring mini dress on Saturday while out with her mother, Alexandra Censori.

The 29-year-old model wore a baby pink satin mini dress with an extremely short hem, a plunging neckline and a crystal-lined Y-back halter strap.

She paired the revealing ensemble with sheer, knee-high socks and a pair of cream slingback kitten heels.

The architect – who has reportedly been ‘forced’ by the 46-year-old rapper to wear increasingly daring outfits for shocking reasons – pinned her raven bob into a polished updo.

During their outing, she was seen with her cell phone and car keys in her hand as she left a building and headed to her car.

She also wore several cartilage earrings and shiny silver bands, including a huge diamond on her ring finger.

She looked radiant with a monochrome pink makeup look that matched her outfit.

Censori had full, fluttering lashes, a pink blush and a glossy pink lip.

At one point, Censori was seen adjusting her sideboob outfit and checking it out in the reflection of a shop window.

She was also seen interacting with a store employee, and when she leaned over to reach the door, her super short dress revealed almost her entire backside.

She was later seen talking on the phone as she walked to her car.

Next to her, her mother wore an all-black outfit with a dress with an asymmetrical hemline and chic pumps.

She carried a taupe-colored handbag and was seen wearing oversized sunglasses with gold hardware.

She was also seen fixing her hair as her daughter examined her outfit in the reflection of the window.

The day before, the mother-daughter duo was spotted leaving a private jet in Los Angeles with West, Ty Dolla $ign and their entourage after her husband performed at Rolling Loud.

Censori left little to the imagination in a completely see-through G-string leotard that almost completely exposed her bum.

Despite rumors that her parents were ‘mortified’ by her raunchy outfits, Alexandra didn’t seem bothered by her daughter’s daring leotard.

The sheer garment, which she wore with tights, revealed the beauty’s breasts and voluptuous derriere.

Her mother opted for more conservative attire, wearing a black turtleneck dress that cut off just below her knee.

The colorful crew appeared to be enjoying themselves on the tarmac after leaving the flight, while her mother happily posed for photos with her daughter and son-in-law.

They were previously at Rolling Loud where West and Ty Dolla $ign performed and the former’s ex-wife, Kim Kardashian, was also in attendance.

Censori and Kardashian crossed paths earlier this month at West’s Vultures 2 listening party.

Since the couple married privately in December 2022, Censori’s friends and family have expressed fears that she has changed.

Some of her loved ones even go so far as to organize an intervention in so-called ‘controlling ways’.

Gigi Hadid just said goodbye to her long hair and hello to a short bob.

The supermodel took over Instagram on Saturday, March 9, to reveal that she has chopped off her signature waist-length locks for a new chin-grazing style, posting a video with the caption, “Dinner and a pork chop.”

The clip was set to Loretta Lynn’s song ‘Act Naturally’ and documented her entire beauty transformation, thanks Chris McMillan. The famous hairstylist was behind it Jennifer Aniston‘s famous ’90s cut known as ‘The Rachel’.

“New version for @gigihadid,” McMillan shared via Instagram on Saturday. “I loved working with Gigi on this new cut. I can’t wait to see the style journey the stylists working with this cut will take .”

In Hadid’s footage of her haircut, the camera immediately zooms in on Hadid, 28, and shows a pair of scissors cutting through her wet hair just below her neck. Moments later, several piles of her blonde locks are shown on the floor before the camera cuts to a close-up of Hadid excitedly awaiting the results as McMillan, 58, puts the finishing touches on the result. The video then ends with Hadid smiling and trying different poses as she sees herself in the mirror for the first time with her new bob behind her ears.

The following day, the fashion icon took a break from a photo shoot for her clothing line Guest in Residence, showing off her wavy short hair in a series of sunny snaps on Instagram. “sunshine and my new ‘do! shooting spring @guestinresidence with loves from me @patrickta @laurapolko,” she wrote alongside the images.

The first shot was of Hadid in a gray knit polo standing in front of a tree with her hair looking effortlessly chic. The next photo highlighted her profile and showed her soaking up the sun while wearing a cardigan, spaghetti strap top and jeans. The final photo showed her wind-blown hair over her face as she was dressed in a yellow shirt, pink and maroon striped cardigan and layered seashell necklaces.

While some may be surprised by Hadid’s drastic hair change, she revealed in a 2021 interview with Harper’s Bazaar that she doesn’t spend as much time worrying about her hair and makeup as she used to since she became a mother.

“I’ve really simplified my routine to just the necessary things,” she told the outlet. “When I work, I obviously do more. But when I’m home, I’m on full-time mom duty. I wake up in the morning, wash my face, moisturize, put on deodorant and like to add fragrance. But if I don’t have time, I don’t wear makeup. My hair is [also] always in a bun so it doesn’t get pulled out.”

Hadid welcomed daughter Khai in September 2020 with ex-boyfriend Zayn Malik. The couple separated a year later, but remain committed to co-parenting. Hadid has since rekindled a romance with him Bradley Cooper.

“Zayn is not happy about it [Bradley and Gigi’s] relationship and it will never be,” a source said exclusively We weekly last month.

However, Cooper, 49, was “a voice of reason” for Hadid. “[Bradley is] sober, and his [advice] comes from his own personal experiences,” the source continues. “Bradley warned Gigi that there is a difference between a healthy divorce and a toxic one.”

Skye Wheatley put on a much-loved display with her boyfriend Lachlan Waugh after revealing they had been to couples counselling.

The former Big Brother star and influencer shared a cozy video of herself and Lachlan packing on the PDA on Instagram on Friday.

In the video, the couple grinned as they stood on the construction site of their $975,000 Gold Coast mansion, which they are busy renovating to create their ‘dream home’.

Skye was seen gazing lovingly at Lachlan as he smiled as he jokingly danced along to the music as they recorded a funny skit.

As Skye turned around laughing, Lachlan turned her back to him and lifted her into the air, wrapping her arms affectionately around his neck.

She gushed in an accompanying caption: “POV: You created your dream home with your partner in crime.”

The loved-up post comes weeks after Skye revealed that she and her partner of six years, Lachlan, had been undergoing couples counselling.

The mother of two opened up about their relationship steps in a video shared to her Instagram Stories in January.

Skye explained that 2024 is all about achieving her goals, a journey that includes tackling the challenges in her relationship with Lachlan.

“Lockie and I went to a counseling session yesterday,” Skye – who shares children Forrest, five, and Bear, two, with Lachlan – began.

She talked about how the session, initially intended as occupational therapy for their son Forrest, turned into a much-needed conversation for them as a couple.

She said of the session: “Somehow this came up, and [the counsellor] was amazing, she just sat back and listened, she didn’t judge, she didn’t take sides.

‘She was very calm and I loved it. I thought: yes, I can get around this kind of guidance!’

Skye explained that she previously felt “judged” by a former counselor, but said the last therapist they saw gave her a new sense of positivity.

Skye first hinted at trouble in paradise with her relationship in February last year after revealing she and Lachlan were ‘on a break’ while ‘co-parenting’ their two children.

The couple tried co-parenting by caring for their children for two nights each, but the arrangement did not last and Lachlan later asked her to move back home.

She explained, “Basically we tried co-parenting. So I would get the kids for two nights, then he would get the kids for two nights. And then, yes, two nights on, two nights off.

“After I did that for a while, he said, ‘Okay, you can come home now,’” she said.

“Because, yeah, obviously I don’t think he liked it. We enjoy being together as a family. But I feel like we just needed a break. Just a break.

‘Obviously I didn’t want to be away from the children as long as we were away from each other. So during the break we just co-parented. Hopefully that makes sense.”
