Would you wear this to a wedding? Bethenny Frankel admits she broke golden rule at BFF's nuptials
Bethenny Frankel has admitted to breaking a cardinal rule of wedding day fashion. The RHONY alum 'just realized' she wore white to her best friend's wedding 30 years ago. A mortified Frankel said her memory was jogged thanks to the controversy surrounding Kylie Jenner, who attended Lauren Sanchez and Jeff Bezos ' wedding in a silver and blue dress that looked white in certain lighting. Bethenny admitted she was unaware of the rule at the time she purchased the dress, as she was scrambling to find an outfit after losing her luggage. Fortunately, her friend was clearly no upset by Bethenny's unfortunate fashion faux pas, and even stood up for her friend in the comments section. 'As the bride, I must add that Bethenny's luggage never arrived, so she had to hunt for a black tie outfit the day of the wedding (in Marbella, no less, which had very few fashion stores at the time). Needless to say in true B 'fashion' she managed to find the most iconic dress and made quite an indelible impression on many men that evening... I was just happy she didn't show up naked!!! :-))'

Venice is a city of love and menace
Jeff Bezos has brought much tat into the world, along with the undoubted convenience of Amazon's services. But in at least one respect, he is a man of good taste. In choosing Venice to plight his troth with his lovely bride Lauren Sanchez at the weekend, Bezos picked the best possible location: La Serenissima is indeed a veritable miracle. It is a logic-defying wonder, and despite my frequent visits, I still don't understand the physics of its construction. How can a city of hundreds of heavy palaces and churches, resting on petrified wooden piles driven into mud, continue to exist centuries after the Venetian lagoon was first settled by terrified refugees? Those who founded the city were of course fleeing the fury of invading barbarian hordes of Huns and Visigoths laying waste to the rest of northern Italy. It was probably that same remoteness of the 100-plus islands that saved Venice for civilisation. Those refugees evolved from precarious fishermen into a magnificent maritime empire, based on a miraculous floating city that is still – I make no apologies for claiming, though it is hardly an original suggestion – the most gorgeous and romantic place in the world. How can anyone resist a city without cars, where water rules supreme and, instead of buses or Tube trains, you take a speedy vaporetto to your desired destination? Just to be afloat here soothes the most jangled of nerves. I first visited Venice aged five. The only memories I have of that trip are of a drunken British sailor from a visiting warship reeling around St Mark's Square yelling 'Fred!' and the coloured glass globules adorning the wrought-iron gateway into Peggy Guggenheim's gallery on the Grand Canal. Peggy, like Bezos, was just one of many super-rich celebrities lured to Venice by its glitz. Since its empire declined from the 16th century onwards, La Serenissima has depended on tourism and its reputation – appropriately for Casanova's home town – as the place to go with your lover. I have been to Venice perhaps 30 times since that first visit. I have my own favourite modest hotel tucked away near St Mark's and would stay there for good if I could. Yes, I know all the clichés: Venice is thick with touts and pickpockets; it stinks in summer; it's overpriced and overwhelmed with day-trippers from the giant cruise ships that are going to finally capsize the sinking city; Venice is dying with a shrinking population the size of Brighton and Hove. Despite all these half-truths, 'trotz alledem' as the Germans say, I would like to end my days there. Many have done precisely that, both in fact and fiction. Just as some places – like Rome and Paris – are cities of life, so others like Venice and Vienna are cities of death, shaded by gloom and giving off a faint air of dissolution. Wagner died here, in the superb palazzo Ca' Vendramin Calergi on the Grand Canal which now houses the Casino, and Browning passed in another, the Ca' Rezzonico, acquired by his son Pen thanks to his marriage to an American heiress. I never see the ATM in the corner of St Mark's Square without her jibe ringing in my ears: 'That will be 150 euros for services not rendered' In fiction, the writer Gustav Aschenbach found both lust and death in Venice, via the pen of Thomas Mann – a novella memorably realised on screen by Luchino Visconti in Dirk Bogarde's finest performance. My three favourite Venetian films are all about death, the other two being Don't Look Now, a macabre tale by Daphne du Maurier, which includes the most erotic encounter ever seen in a mainstream movie, and The Comfort of Strangers, based on an Ian McEwan novel which sees a sinister Christopher Walken murderously obsessed with Rupert Everett. All these films mingle Eros with death and for me that is part of Venice's draw. You don't expect a honeymoon here to be entirely happy, as Mr John Cross discovered when he took his 60-year-old bride George Eliot there. For reasons still unexplained, young Mr Cross leapt from his hotel room into the Grand Canal and was fished out by gondoliers rather than perform his conjugal duty with the eminent novelist. A similar fate befell the great critic John Ruskin, who introduced Venetian architecture to the Victorian public. Ruskin was so shocked by the sight of his bride Effie Grey's pubic hair that it completely unmanned him (his only previous sight of a naked woman having been on classical statues). The marriage was later annulled due to non-consummation. The one time that I went to Venice with seduction specifically on my mind, fate also failed to deliver the anticipated outcome for me. To add insult to injury, the lady concerned asked me to pay her airfare home to Berlin. I never see the ATM in the corner of St Mark's Square without her jibe ringing in my ears: 'That will be 150 euros for services not rendered.' So if not romance, what is it that makes me adore the place? It is the mystery of this maze, and a definite air of menace. In the evenings, when the tourists have gone back to their ships and the shadows lengthen, you can wander alone and lose yourself in the heart of the labyrinth. There is a thrill in not knowing who or what will be around the next corner. And if it turns out to be a hideous knife-wielding dwarf in a red mac, a beautiful boy in a sailor suit or indeed Jeff Bezos – why, that would be exciting too.

Why Salma Hayek's $40 billion husband François Henri Pinault attended Jeff Bezos' wedding without her
One of the many guests at Amazon founder Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez 's wedding was billionaire businessman Francois Henri Pinault, though his wife Salma Hayek was not in attendance. Pinault, 63, the French CEO of Kering whose net worth is upwards of $40 billion, was spotted at the lavish event in Venice, Italy last week. While his wife Salma Hayek, 58, was not spotted at the nuptials, she refrained from posting on social media for the past four days, leaving fans wondering what she was up to, after celebrating her stepson Augustin graduating high school. As it turns out, the actress seemingly decided to skip the wedding in favor of some mother and daughter bonding time with her 17-year-old daughter Valentina. They were both photographed at the iconic Glastonbury Music Festival in the U.K. over the weekend. Actress and comedian Chelsea Handler shared several snaps from her time at the festival, including one of the mother and daughter together. 'Mama and da baby,' Handler captioned the mother and daughter snap from her Instagram story. Handler also shared a backstage snap that Alanis Morrissette posted on Instagram, with the singer posing with Hayek, Handler, Anya Taylor-Joy, Minke, Cara Delevingne and Malcolm McRae. The comedienne also shared several snaps in a regular Instagram post, a few of which featured Hayek. One featured Handler, Hayek and other sin a group all posing together while another showed Hayek laying down on a patch of grass. While Salma wasn't at the wedding, the bride has been supportive of the actress, as recent as last month. It was revealed in May that Hayek will be one of numerous models to grace the cover of Sports Illustrated's famous swimsuit issue. She shared the cover and many other images on Instagram, with the new Mrs. Bezos offering some heart emojis in the comments. 'I think it's really remarkable that a magazine like Sports Illustrated says that it's OK, maybe even cool, to be past 50 and still be able to feel not just sexy, but for me, to be free and not be self-conscious of your body like you have to hide,' Hayek told Sports Illustrated about her selection for the swimsuit issue. 'I don't see why, after a certain age, we have to retract ourselves from embracing life to the fullest,' she continued. She also noticed a, 'very tangible change' in attitudes in recent years, and Salma doesn't have any intention of slowing down. 'I feel so fortunate that I am part of a generation that has been able to really experience very tangible change,' noted the pinup. Hayek was joined by gymnast and influencer Olivia 'Livvy' Dunne, Team USA Olympic gymnast Jordan Chiles and model/entrepreneur Lauren Chan as the 2025 SI swimsuit issue cover models.
