They told me I had bowel cancer and I had a little panic attack. 

The King hosted a star-studded Commonwealth event at St James's Palace tonight ahead of his forthcoming visit to Samoa. Charles, 75, was joined by Queen Camilla, Sophie The Duchess of Edinburgh and The Duke of Kent, at a reception ahead of the Commonwealth Heads of Government Meeting (CHOGM) later this month. Among the 375 guests at the palace were Jamaican-born singer Grace Jones, 76, South African Strictly judge Motsi Mabuse, 43, and Australian judge Craig Revell Horwood, 59.

EDEN CONFIDENTIAL: A foundation beloved by Princess Diana and the Queen Mother has shut down amid a war of words between the son and grandson of Sir Douglas Bader. I hear that the Battle of Britain veteran's grandson, Charley, has threatened legal action against the Douglas Bader Foundation (DBF) after it collapsed under financial pressures. The amputees' charity was created in 1982 by Bader's son-in-law David Bickers, 74, and other friends and family. For at least a decade, Bickers' son Charley - Bader's grandson by his stepdaughter Wendy McCleave - has been an integral part of the organisation, working under a contract basis with his firm Trillion Tree for about £30,000-a-year. Charley was behind the popular Bader's Bus Company flight display team, the first British team made up of disabled pilots, and heavily promoted it in media appearances.

EDEN CONFIDENTIAL: When Mel Coleman - a vigorous 60-year-old, seemingly in impeccable health - died last year only weeks after being diagnosed with colon cancer, his wife, the tennis star-turned-television presenter Annabel Croft, was comforted by their only son, Charlie, 27. 'Charlie said it was as if a hand had come down from the sky and plucked Mel out, leaving our family with a gaping hole that will never be filled,' Annabel later recalled. Now, Charlie has cheered his mother and two sisters by delivering some joyful news. 'He's got engaged,' a friend tells me. 'The family are delighted and really looking forward to the wedding. It's given everyone a boost.'

It might be the view - looking across the surface of a shimmering sea - or the location in an iconic city. It may be the decor: grand chandeliers, works of art, designer furniture. Or a wonderful pool or terrace for cocktails at sunset. Or perhaps it's an unusual history - an ambiance of famous guests gone by. Maybe you even fell in love there. Most people have a favourite hotel - one that brings back some of our fondest, most treasured memories. So we've asked some of the best-travelled people in Britain, from broadcasters to writers, explorers and some of the most senior industry figures, to reveal their favourite hotels in the world.

It wasn't until he found 10 tons of soil on a bedroom floor that Charles Reeves, 57, realised that the tenants in his £3 million London home had turned it into a cannabis farm. 'We had so many happy memories as a family in that house,' he says. 'But now they've been ruined. The growers completely wrecked the place and it's cost £80,000 to repair. The experience has been very damaging - we feel utterly violated.' But Charles's horror story is by no means unique.

While competitors at Wimbledon must be dressed in white, there are few guidelines for attendees to abide by, rather it is an unspoken rule that guests arrive in smart attire. However, this year tells a different story, with celebrities arriving in casual attire. (Pictured: T to B, L to R: Brad Pitt, Tom Hiddleston, Daniel Craig, Hugh Jackman, Grace Jones, Romeo Beckham, Ronnie O'Sullivan, and Nick Kyrgios)

Naomi Campbell put on yet another showstopping display in a dazzling gold mini dress as she headed to the glitzy after party following the V&A's annual summer bash in London on Wednesday. The model, 54, showed off her incredible figure in the plunging sequinned dress as she joined stars including Eiza Gonzalez and Grace Jones for the party at The Roof Gardens. The private bash, which was hosted by Naomi herself, came after the launch of NAOMI: In Fashion, an exhibition in her honour at V&A's summer bash.

The party of the century, hosted at London institution Claridge's Hotel, went down in history after tales of debauchery and wild antics emerged from the celebration, which went on until dawn. The glamorous shindig saw some of the world's most famous faces descend on London's West End to celebrate with the birthday girl; all dressed to the nines in stunning outfits in line with the theme, The Beautiful and The Damned. Among the guests were huge names including Gwyneth Paltrow, Ronnie Wood, Naomi Campbell, Sadie Frost, Sam Taylor-Johnson and Grace Jones.

At Deputy Prime Minister's Question Time we had a rematch of Russell Harty's TV encounter with Grace Jones. Deputy PM Oliver 'Olive' Dowden, wet as a labrador's nose, flashed his eyes and flapped his elbows with ooh-la-la observations. Meanwhile, the role of the violent, not entirely cogent Grace Jones was sustained by Angela Rayner, property speculator, object of interest to the Manchester constabulary and occasional deputy leader of the Labour party.

The Strawberry Hill Hotel, which was frequented by Bob Marley and depicted in the 1920 film 'Bob Marley: One Love,' is now on sale. The 47-acre mountaintop resort was built on a coffee plantation and belonged to a British royal family in the eighteenth century. It was chosen by its respected original owner Horace Walpore, who was the son of Prime Minister Robert Walpore, who served from 1721 to 1742. Despite the hotel's undisclosed price, visitors to St. Andrew, Jamaica, can also stay at the luxurious hotel while on vacation, according to the New York Post.

Mel C and Grace Jones sported matching Lacoste blazers, while Emma Roberts wore a satin jacket as they lead the performers at the company's Paris Fashion Week show. Emma, a 33-year-old American Horror Story actor, appeared effortlessly chic at the Lacoste Womenswear Fall/Winter 2024-2025 show in Paris on Wednesday. Emma, who came out with her actor boyfriend Cody John, wore an oversized satin white coat for the occasion, which was adorned with a sequin Lacoste crocodile.

Swimmers at London's historic Hampstead ponds today weighed in on the controversy over transgender swimmers' access to the female-only waters, with mixed results. The row was the sole topic of discussion at the north London bathing mecca today, after a women's rights group condemned managers for failing to recognize their reservations about the use of the transgender pool. The Women's Rights Network (WRN) has accused Kenwood Ladies Pond Association (KLPA) of being "high-handed and undemocratic" by denying its attempt to prohibit trans women from entering the Hampstead Heath facility. However, committee heads claim that any such move would be 'unlawful,' after receiving court advice on the matter, but the local WRN branch claims that it has declined to provide the information to members.

Grace Jones, the handsome model son of the 1970s, was known for her one-of-a-kind, out-there personality, and distinctive appearance. In the late 1970s at Studio 54, Jones and his father, French graphic designer and illustrator Jean-Paul Goude, met in the late '70s and began working together. When she appeared in several pieces of Jones' art, Goude directed Jones' music videos and helped define her public image. In 1979, they welcomed their son, but it soon fell away in the 1980s.

Now, you can get your hands on Sir Roger Moore's mohair suit in A View to a Kill, if you have £30,000 to spare. It is one of 180 of late Sir Roger's personal possessions expected to be auctioned at auction, at a total value of £420,000. The ski suit Sir Roger wore in A View To A Kill, which was launched in 1985 and marked his last appearance as Bond after six previous outings, is also available.

Sir Roger with Grace Jones' poster may sell for up to £700.

Lizzo was the pretty girl on the Renaissance tour. The singer appeared to be getting emotional while watching Beyoncé's name dance across the stadium screen in Warsaw, Poland, when singing "Break My Soul (The Queens Remix)" was posted on Instagram on June 27th. The song's lyrics paid homage to many well-known female artists, including Lauryn Hill, Grace Jones, Betty Davis, and Rosetta Tharpe. Lizzo herself was the group's top, with Beyoncé putting particular emphasis on her name during her live performance. "I was worrying about baby me, listening to Happi Face by destiny's child, and screaming myself to sleep because of bullies," Lizzo wrote. "I was excited about Beyoncé's leap into the room where Tina Turner was waiting to meet her for the first time." I'm trying to figure out what we all mean to people and how cycled it is. We are all infinitely connected and maximally connected. "It's an honor," she continued, thanking Beyoncé for her recognition.

Naturally, Stephen Jones OBE, the actor's milliner, was at Royal Ascot last week, spotting his creations of every size, shape, and color on scores of heads. Nonetheless, one's absence was acute. It was the first Royal Ascot without Her Majesty the Queen,' Stephen, 66, says. "But she was in the millinery." The reason why the hat industry is so popular in Britain and around the world is because of the Queen - and the fact that people are still wearing hats in 2023 in honor of her and what she gave to us over the years.

As he appeared on Saturday night, Lionel Richie was 'upstaged' by a young fan and her incredible breakdancing abilities. Grace Jones, Kool & the Gang, and Sophie Ellis-Bextor were among the 73-year-old music legends on display at Childerley Orchard. However, a teenage girl halted the show during Lionel's appearance with her adorable break dancing abilities.

The Soho district in London, which had once brimming with bars and late-night music venues, is on the verge of becoming 'just another Shoreditch,' as it fights a burgeoning tide of Nimbyism from a'small minority' of wealthy citizens. Few would celebrate the return of the 1960s underworld and the reign of the legendary Kray Twins (who ruled The Hide-A-Way club on Gerrard Street) - but for the majority of locals, there is an undeniable yearning for the yesteryear's charm. It comes as yet another historic venue, Trisha's, has been forced to shut down this week after a millionaire neighbor's screams over noise and alleged 'drug use'. George Hudson, who runs and lives above Soho's Piano Bar, has expressed fear that the neighborhood will be 'another Shoreditch.' According to him, there is a "significant minority" of people who are refusing to open new night time venues, particularly those who moved in during Covid.

CHRISTOPHER STEVENS: Two questions: why doesn't Esme Young have a damehood yet, and how does tailor Patrick Grant keep up with her? The dynamo of The Great British Sewing Bee (BBC1) is the designer and film costumier who created Grace Jones' legendary padlock dress and Bridget Jones' pyjamas. Patrick, the co-presenter, must take a step back and allow her to perform. She discovered her love for skulls after grabbing a roll of fabric in a piratical style. 'I collect them,' she said, adding that she had 'a bull's head, a goat's head, and a sheep's head' at home.

Earlier this week, it emerged that Gwyneth Paltrow had rubbed revered journalist Dylan Jones up the wrong way as she refused to acknowledge his presence and gave'monosyllabic' responses to questions. When Gwyneth was on Shakespeare in Love in the Nineties, the conversation was so awkward that Dylan now remembers it, deeming it 'not pleasant'. A slew of bizarre interview exchanges have evolved over the years, from Tom Cruise accusing a reporter of "crossing the line" and having "poor manners" to Grace Jones physically attacking a talk show host. Now, MailOnline examines ten of the most memorable and uncomfortable interview conversations ever.

Grace Jones posed in a high-cut white leotard and black heels as she posed with both hands on her hips for a sexy Wolford campaign. The 74-year-old supermodel, who is the current star of the luxury lingerie brand, bared a lot of skin for the shot, which earned a lot of praise from her followers on social media. Many people admitted to initially thinking the pictures were 'throwbacks' because she looks so young on Wolford's Instagram account. 'Grace Jones chuckles at you because it's a shoot for Wolford's Spring 2023 campaign...and one Twitter user marvelled at her 74 years old.' Another joking about Grace Jones is that she is both suspicious and desperate, and I'm sure she is some kind of immortal being.'

Mr Motivator, a.k.a. Derrick Errol Evans, has been a hit on the festival circuit since bursting onto our screens in the 90s doing fitness routines on breakfast television. Derrick Evans, the health and wellness coach, has also established his own cult following his appearances in his signature colorful spandex clothing. In an exclusive interview with MailOnline, Mr Motivator, a 70-year-old man, discussed his imitators: 'I never thought something like this would happen when I first started out.'
