News about Zac Goldsmith

Having separated from his second wife only last year, Zac Goldsmith might be expected to take things rather slowly when it comes to romance. His latest girlfriend has, however, left the former Tory minister so shaken and stirred that he has already popped the question. The Daily Mail can disclose that Lord Goldsmith, 49, has got engaged to Hum Fleming, 34, whose great-uncle was James Bond author Ian Fleming. 'They are engaged,' a friend confirmed last night. 'Hum was wearing a big sparkler on a night out in Mayfair this week and said she and Zac were to be married.'

Action movie star Kate Beckinsale is a hardcore fitness fan, hitting the gym six times a week.  But even that doesn't seem to be enough for the 50-year-old, who turned her kitchen into a makeshift exercise area for an impromptu extra workout.  The British actress, worth an estimated £20million, shared a video with her six million Instagram followers last week showing her performing strength exercises against the kitchen cabinets while wearing a pink sports bra and tracksuit bottoms, below. 

EMILY PRESCOTT: She was the glittering star of the Brit Awards, but Raye (pictured) struggles to remain out of the limelight, mostly on social media. The 26-year-old, left, has revealed a startling conversation with her therapist, when she was asked: 'When do you feel like the voices in your head are being most evil to you?' 'When I'm on social media, I'm telling you.' With South Londoner Raye's real name Rachel Keen realizing that social media was causing more harm than good, the Brit School sham has given her passwords to a trusted friend to use her accounts. As a result of a cooling-off period, she now has a five-minute window if she ever wants to post something, and she also has a separate phone reserved solely for her social media pages.

Despite having already earned 12 points on his license, former environment minister Lord Goldsmith, 49, was caught on seven occasions between April and December last year. Goldsmith was banned from driving for a year and fined £5,500 and court costs of £2,700. Five of the seven offences took place in Chelsea, Richmond, and Bayswater, while the other two occurred near Bath and Guildford. Goldsmith was caught three times on Chertsey Road in Twickenham on May 31, August 31 and November 11, twice at 47mph and twice at 46mph.

Hum Fleming, the Lord's great niece, grabbed the attention of many this week as she was seen wining and dining with the Lord in a cosy Mayfair haunt. As they headed out for a stroll in west London the smiling pair were seen leaving his £5 million Holland Park home side-by-side. Hum, 34, a public relations specialist, has made a name for herself in London's social scene, most notably with former Made in Chelsea actor Millie Mackintosh, Lady Kitty Spencer, and other Notting Hill celebrities.

Ellie Goulding's 'close friendship' with her singer-songwriter Ellie Goulding came as a surprise, particularly when pictures of her frolicking with a stubbish surfing instructor appeared last week. But after two years of non-stop-start with married Ellie Goldsmith, Tory peer Zac Goldsmith is on a roll, with model and socialite Hum Fleming, 34, whose great-uncle James Bond author Ian Fleming. A 'Zac believes she's wonderful,' a source told the Journal. They've been together for seven weeks, but they are obviously mad about her and want it to work out this time.' Hum was introduced by father-of-six Zac, 49, to his two youngest children for the first time over dinner at Mayfair's 5 Hertford Street on Thursday evening. Zac and Hum were seen leaving his £5 million Holland Park home and taking a stroll before returning.

Ellie Goulding, a bruising 'rough patch' in her four-year marriage, needed a sunshine break, thousands of miles from the public's demanding eyes (and cameras). Spending her days on the beach in Costa Rica carefree, surfing, swimming, and not worrying about the growing chasm between her husband Caspar Jopling will surely give her the thinking space she needs to find a way back to the marriage she once held so dear. But as images of the 37-year-old frolicking in the waves, without her wedding ring, and in the company of Armando Perez, a buff and handsome surfing instructor, there was no one in doubt this week. Ellie's fairy tale has come to an end. Ellie and Caspar's management company has been insisting that they have been together for more than 18 months, according to a source close to the singer, but that the two children, Arthur, are three years old, are determined to save their marriage.'

Following an eclectic line of collaborators that ranged from Radio 1 host Greg James to artist Caspar Jopling, who shares two-year-old Arthur with, the British pop star, 37, appears to be embarking on a new chapter in her love life. She has also been romantically linked to Prince Harry and Calvin Harris, but vehemently deny the latter and insist that she was the matchmaker who introduced the Scottish musician to pal Taylor Swift. Ellie is rumored to have been caught up in a love feud with One Direction's Niall Horan and Ed Sheeran. Even thought the hit song Don't was written about her.

Hannah Bourne-Taylor was joined by Lord Goldsmith today to help avian families, including in the enforcing of new houses. She turned heads as she marched through Westminster today with only the nude body suit, strategically placed swifts, and her long brown hair to hide her modesty, as well as a pair of knee-high black boots. She is leading a Feather Speech movement, which aims for'swift bricks' to be included in all new homes. They are used by species such as swifts, sparrows, and house martins, who find their traditional eaves nest sites in new builds difficult to come by.

Lauren Hough, a Cheshire-born woman, is said to have taken her name from the scandalous 1955 Vladimir Nabokov novel Lolita about a middle-aged professor obsessed with an underage teen. As they enjoyed a cup of coffee in London last week, Zac, 49, and Lauren - the surprising friendship, despite their 21-year age gap - was revealed. Lauren wore flared leather trousers, an overstuffed tie-dye puffer jacket, and platform boots, while Zac dressed down in chinos and loafers. As they sat outside Daylesford Organic cafe in Notting Hill, he smoked a roll-up. Lauren giggled and staggered as Zac revealed something on his phone, then collapsed in surprise. Last night, a friend said they were 'actually nothing more than family.' 'Zac has no shortage of female friends to spend time with,' according to a spokesman. Lilita is the most recent addition, but he insists they are just good friends.'

EDEN CONFIDENTIAL: The prelude to Christmas this year seems to be little more than a distant memory, but not to award-winning songstress Ellie Goulding and the dazzlingly wealthy - and now single - Zac Goldsmith of Richmond Park following his demise in the 2014 general election. Neither, as far as knows, sent the other a partridge in a pear tree, which is understandable given that Ellie, 37, of San Francisco, has decided to 'block' contact with Zac, 49, after concluding that what was described as a 'close friend' was abrading her marriage to Old Etonian art dealer Caspar Jopling. She and Zac were captured in close proximity in a group photograph during COP28, the UN Climate Change jamboree held last month in Dubai, which attracted a record number of private jets, as well as those that were temporarily frozen on the runway at Munich airport.

Ellie Goulding and Zac Goldsmith vowed to stay away from him for the love of her marriage, but the pair are back in contact after months of silence. Ms Goulding, a British singer, recalled that after reports that their 'close friendship' had been unhelpful for her marriage to art dealer Caspar Jopling, she decided to 'block' communications with Lord Goldsmith, 49, back in September. Lord Goldsmith deleted a snapshot of a sculpture he'd made of Ellie captioned "subjects I love" after being unfollowed on Instagram by Ms Goulding.

After South Africa revealed that it had been'relieved' its Jewish captain of his role at the Under-19 World Cup due to security concerns regarding pro-Israel remarks, Piers Morgan has triggered outrage. Following remarks he made when receiving a Jewish Rising Star award last year, David Teeger was banned from the role for the home tournament in South Africa. "I've [given] this award, and, yes, I'm now the Rising Star, but the true rising stars in Israel are the young soldiers.' Teeger was quoted as saying.

Zac Goldsmith, 48, was seen breaking the speed limit between April and August this year. Two of the driving offences were committed when Goldsmith served as a minister in Rishi Sunak's government before he resigned in June. On May 31 and August 3, speed cameras caught him twice on Chertsey Road in Twickenham going faster than the 40mph limit at 46 and 47 mph. On Cheyne Walk in Chelsea on Sunday, he was picked up going nine miles above the 20mph speed limit, which he also broke on August 18th by traveling at 28 miles per hour.

EMILY PRESCOTT: According to reports, the Starry Eyed singer suffered after her art dealer husband Caspar Jopling died over the summer. She had a friendship with peer Zac Goldsmith, 48, but it was reported that she had to put an end to focusing on her marriage.

The singer, 36, looked sensational as she sang her heart out and danced around on stage wearing only a blazer leotard. Despite having called off her closer friendship with Tory peer Zac Goldsmith weeks ago, she seemed to be in good spirits. Ellie stunned audiences with platformed military boots and a lacy bodycon. With three statement rings, a gothic necklace, and a pair of long silver earrings, the hitmaker completed her look.

RICHARD EDEN: In some of the most elegant drawing rooms of west London, brother and sister face off in the Middle East conflict. Jemima Goldsmith, a television and film actress, has said she has been 'outcast' after taking the opposite route from her brothers, former Tory minister Lord (Zac) Goldsmith and financier Ben on Israel's reaction to the Hamas militant faction in Gaza. 'The bravest and hardest thing is to stand outside of your tribe in the interests of justice, even if it makes you an outcast,' says Jemima, 49, who immigrated to Islam before she married Imran Khan, the Pakistan cricket hero-turned-politician, in 1995. 'Political tribalism is the enemy of justice and peace.'

As she perched on the bathroom counter to get the money shot for Instagram on Monday, the singer, 36, put on a very leggy display in thigh-high leather boots. Ellie Goulding posted a series of sexy snaps of her posing in a swanky designed bathroom in a restaurant on Instagram. Despite shaming off her increasingly close friendship with Tory peer Zac Goldsmith weeks ago, the hitmaker seemed to be in great spirits. To stay warm in the fallal weather, Ellie wore a knitted black dress and opaque black tights.

It must be love, RICHARD EDEN: It must be love. When she landed from abroad, Zac Goldsmith made sure to pick up his new lady, Nathalie Kelley, at Heathrow Airport. The actress and campaigner, 38, tenderly wrapped her arm around Lord Goldsmith's waist after he greeted her with a kiss on the lips. The former Tory minister cranked her suitcase as they left the airport in West London, gentlemenically. 'It's obvious they are a couple,' an onlooker at Terminal 3 informs me. They seem to be in love.'

Lord Goldsmith, 48, who is recently single, displayed his impeccable green credentials further this week when he was seen leaving Chiltern Firehouse with actress and campaigner Nathalie Kelley. The 38-year-old Peruvian-Australian, who appeared in 2006 film The Fast and The Furious: Tokyo Drift, and television series The Vampire Diaries and the redesigned Dynasty, among others, addresses the ex-MP's obsession with the planet. On Friday, she paid tribute to Zac on her Instagram page as one of 'the most inspiring and joyous group of friends and collaborators,' and she continued, 'the world is a better place because of your books, classes, and policies.' It's an honor [sic] to say hello to your friends.'

On Monday, Ellie Goulding and her husband Caspar Jopling emerged in West London for yet another outing for the formerly homeless couple. The starry Eyed actress, 36, walked out with her ex just weeks after she sparked her close friendship with Tory peer Zac Goldsmith, which she described as "ethical." The trip is their second outing in recent days after being seen out and about late last month, with both feeling glum.

In a private chat with 'naked swift' activist Hannah Bourne-Taylor, a week after Zac Goldsmith's budding friendship with singer Ellie Goulding was called off. Hannah, 37, a former model who marched topless to ten Downing Street last year as a'swift' to draw attention to our birds' plight, swift', argued with Lord Goldsmith over a cup of coffee in West London last year. Onlookers may be forgiven for assuming that the ex-MP, 48, had departed from his friendship with Starry Eyed singer Ellie, 36, without asking for further details.

Ms Goulding, 36, who divorced from her art dealer husband Caspar Jopling, 31, sent a tweet (inset) to find out who the man was in the entertaining video. She said: 'This is awks but can anyone tell me who this is?He was seriously impressive! And sweet.' The man in the video turned out to be Richard Benwell, the CEO of Wildlife & Countryside Link, and he replied saying: 'Thanks @elliegoulding, and hello! 'Thank you for all the environmental activism and the music to go with it.' Ms Goulding is seen with Mr Goldsmith (left) and Mr Jopling (right).
