Married At First Sight's hottest bride ever Evelyn Ellis ensures all eyes are on her as she stuns in a dramatic couture gown on the Cannes red carpet
The Married At First Sight star, 28, ensured she was the centre of attention as she graced the red carpet at the Opening Ceremony and premiere of Partir Un Jour (Leave One Day) in France.
The Aussie reality star joined a bevy of A-list luminaries including Eva Longoria, Heidi Klum and Leonardo DiCaprio.
Evelyn looked every inch the Hollywood siren in a dramatic, two-toned gown by Cappellazzo Couture.
The sculpted bodice featured an elegant corset silhouette in a gradient nude tone, with soft black detailing that traced her décolletage, adding a hint of gothic glamour.
A billowing tulle skirt cascaded into a voluminous train, flowing beautifully as she walked the red carpet.
Cinched at the waist with an abstract black satin detail, the dress perfectly highlighted Evelyn's hourglass figure.
Adding a touch of sparkle, the brunette beauty accessorised with a dazzling necklace from Affinity Diamonds, keeping the rest of her jewellery minimal to let her gown take centre stage.
Her makeup was flawless, with glowing skin, a nude lip and sultry, smoky eyes.
Evelyn wore her brunette tresses in a side-parted updo with soft, face-framing strands to complete her glamorous look.
This isn't the first time the glamorous TV bride has graced the red carpet as a special guest of L'Oréal.
While she was all smiles as she strutted through the event this year, Evelyn posted to Instagram on Sunday, saying she would miss boyfriend Duncan, 40, while in Cannes.
Posting photos of herself outside the airport, she wrote: 'This little lady is off on a big adventure, but can now declare she will be a little unhinged without Duncan.'
The happy couple, who announced they were dating in May 2023 despite having been matched with different partners on MAFS, just celebrated their second anniversary.
Evelyn and Duncan stepped out for a romantic evening last month and shared a heartfelt tribute to social media.
Taking to Instagram, Duncan posted a sweet message alongside a series of glam snaps with Evelyn.
'2 years of loving you. Which is 730 days, and approximately 1,051,200 minutes of putting up with each other. Thank you, for being you x,' he wrote.
Evelyn cheekily responded in the comments with, 'We still got it,' proving the spark is very much alive between the fan-favourite couple.

Georgia Toffolo's husband James Watt forced to deny claims she is pregnant as she shares a post promising 'major news' on romantic getaway
Georgia Toffolo 's husband James Watt has hit back at speculation she is expecting her first child after sharing a post teasing 'major news' on Instagram. The couple are currently away on holiday in Iceland and Georgia shared a selection of snaps from the romantic getaway, which included a salmon fishing trip. Underneath the gallery of images, one person commented: 'Are you pregnant?', to which Georgia's husband retorted: 'I don't think she is'. Several people commented underneath the exchange that it was inappropriate for anyone to ask the former Made In Chelsea star such a personal question. Georgia's 'major news' was actually that she had finally caught her first Atlantic salmon, which she revealed she had already tried many times in three countries. She sweetly captioned the photos: 'Making memories with my forever person'. Georgia and James looked as loved-up as ever in the snaps, as they gave an insight into their getaway which included picturesque walks and fishing. The former I'm A Celeb star looked typically chic, even in her fishing gear, which included a jumper and waterproof dungarees. Another look saw her sport a striped top underneath a cream knit sleeveless jumper, accessorising with a burnt orange head scarf and shades. The couple were also joined by two black Labradors. Georgia and James said 'I do' on a fishing boat earlier this year. However, they ditched their fishing attire for much more glamorous ensembles for their church service. The reality star looked out of this world in a strapless corset dress and flowing veil, while James opted for a classic navy suit. The couple settled their pre-wedding nerves with a slice of jam on toast and a cup of tea in James' granny's kitchen. She sweetly captioned the photos: 'Making memories with my forever person' She captioned her post: 'So relaxed and happy. Pictures taken at James' Granny's house just before the church yesterday. We really did it our way!' Sharing snaps of their special and unique day, Georgia revealed she travelled to the church in a transit van and held some daffodils freshly picked last minute in the morning. The bride almost suffered a fall as she slipped over the bottom of her dress while walking to the same church James' grandparents married in. James wrote on his Instagram: 'Georgia and I got married today. 'Some key details: 1st March 2025 57.6722° N, 2.3372° W (Gardenstown, Northeast Scotland) 6°C, 17-knot winds (because Scottish weather never disappoints) Spaniel ring bearer 'Guests - whoever could get there with 24 hours notice, Scottish honeymoon incoming 'Married in the same church my grandparents were married in' The pair got engaged in October after the millionaire proposed with an exquisite eight carat triple-diamond studded band estimated to be worth £200,000 during a romantic getaway in Greece for Georgia's 30th birthday. And after the BrewDog founder previously insisted that the pair would be tying the knot this year, it appears that the couple were true to their word - though guests only had 48 hours notice to attend. Georgia looked stunning for her big day, slipping into a cream, fleece off-the-shoulder dress - perfect for keeping her warm in the chilly Scottish weather. The I'm A Celebrity star styled her blonde locks into an elegant up do' and added dainty diamond earrings and a flowing white veil to her bridal look. Perhaps not very bridal were the chunky brown boots she donned with the outfit, though this may have been for health and safety reasons amid their photoshoot on the boat. Meanwhile, James himself rocked an unconventional wedding outfit, donning a cream beanie hat and a thick cream jumper worn beneath blue fishing overalls. The couple certainly appeared to get in the spirit of things, with Georgia and James pulling different expressions as they got to grips with some lobsters. Georgia's post was greeted with a plethora of delightful comments from her fans and celebrity pals, who were equally shocked and overjoyed at her big news. After sharing her images to social media, Georgia shared a video to her Instagram stories shortly after walking down the aisle, excitedly remarking: 'We just got married!' Georgia, who was sat in a car next to James - who at this point was clad in a smart, dark suit - said to the camera: 'It was so unchoreographed! We just came out the church and were like "wait, where do we go now?" So we just sat in the car!

London City Ballet review — a witty and wonderful programme
The resurrection of London City Ballet nearly 30 years after the company's closure was one of the success stories of 2024. Relaunched last summer by the erstwhile dancer Christopher Marney, this international touring company is clearly on a roll in its mission to honour the past while looking to the future. Momentum, the umbrella title for LCB's second programme of revivals of rarely seen dances alongside new commissions, is hearteningly apt. The tour, which I caught at the Theatre Royal in Bath, stretches into November and encompasses Birmingham, Oxford and York, two separate visits to London (at Sadler's Wells and the Royal Opera House, respectively) as well as trips to France and Spain. • Read more dance reviews, guides and interviews You couldn't ask for a better curtain-raiser than George Balanchine's Haieff Divertimento. Named after Alexei Haieff, to whose lyrical and lively music it's set, this brief 'black and white' ballet dates from 1947 and was for decades deemed to have been lost. Incredibly, this is its UK premiere. Divided into five scenes marked by the kind of courtly yet stylish quirkiness that was key to Balanchine's art, the work is an excellent company showcase. All ten dancers have a chance to shine, but none more so than the sparklingly saucy Jimin Kim, most ably partnered by Alejandro Virelles. Balanchine's beautiful bauble is followed by a pair of darker chamber ballets, each of which focuses on duets. Premiered at the Royal Ballet in 2009 and set to Liszt, Consolations and Liebestraum was an early sign of the considerable talent of the choreographer Liam Scarlett. Charting the deterioration of a relationship through the interactions of three couples, his dance possesses great emotional intelligence. The shift from playful serenity to troubled melancholy is impressively modulated, leading to a lump-in-throat finale for the guest star Alina Cojocaru and Joseph Taylor. Joseph Taylor and Alina Cojocaru performed Consolations and Liebestraum ASH Soft Shore is by Florent Melac, premier danseur at the Paris Opera Ballet. Created for two couples, one of which is same-sex, and set to Beethoven, this new work suffers a bit by its tonal similarity to the Scarlett. Overloaded with steps and movement, it sometimes seems more like a strenuously physical exercise than the deep expression of human feeling it was meant to be. It is, however, very capably danced. The bill culminates with Alexei Ratmansky's vibrant take on Mussorgsky's Pictures at an Exhibition. Ten wonderfully deadpan dancers, Cojocaru among them, romp their way through a series of breakneck scenes that capture the music's grandeur and drive via a deft balance of drama, melodrama and humour. The digital backdrop of geometric watercolours by Kandinsky is neatly echoed in Adeline André's costumes. The overall effect is witty and, like London City Ballet itself, more than a little dazzling.★★★★☆ 105min Touring to Nov 22, Follow @timesculture to read the latest reviews

Love Island's Shakira and Harry set for VERY awkward meeting with her mum after she branded her daughter's love interest a 'd***head' in scathing rant
It was revealed at the end of Sunday night's Love Island episode the contestants are set to be reunited with their loved ones in the family and friends episode. However, it seems not everyone will be playing happy families with their offspring and their chosen love interest, judging by Shakira 's mother Sukina's TikToks. As Harry made another play for her daughter, Sukina launched into a furious tirade about the situation and warned him off Shakira. Labelling the Islander a 'd***head' in a scathing online rant, Sukina - who runs an online tarot card reading business - suggested Shakira will need a 'spiritual cleanse'. Sharing her unfiltered opinion, Sukina said: 'When I think of the villa I just think of a cesspit, it is just a cesspit and she is surrounded by snakes. 'She will be getting a deep spiritual cleanse when she comes home and I am just going to add this - Harry needs to the f*** up about Shakira. It was revealed at the end of Sunday night's Love Island episode the contestants are set to be reunited with their loved ones in the family and friends episode 'Seriously, the only person that's trying to give life to that little situation is that d***head. There, my love and light slipped for a minute.' 'That's about as negative as I got, d***head'. A teaser at the end of the latest episode revealed that Monday's show will see family and friends temporarily enter the villa to reunite with the Islanders. The clip showed Toni's mother Leslie making a bombshell arrival in the villa, shouting for her daughter who screamed from the terrace when she spotted her. The iconic episode, which airs days before the final, typically brings happy reunions but also some home truths from those who have been watching from home. It has not been confirmed that Sukina is one of the relatives entering the villa, however her arrival will certainly make for very awkward viewing. Shakira and Harry called it quits when he began showing an interest in Helena again, with Shakira ending their romance when she caught wind of Harry's behaviour. However, in a twist of events, Shakira ended her blossoming romance with Conor because of her lingering feelings for Harry. Helena was chosen by Blu after Harry picked to recouple with Shakira After hearing how Shakira felt, Harry began questioning his own connection with Helena, who he had just asked to be exclusive with. An explosive Grafies episode, private clips exposed Harry's true feelings for Shakiraw which he later admitted to Helena. Shakira and Harry are now exploring their romance again, much to her mother's dismay, and have recently recoupled. After calling time on their relationship, viewers have slammed producers for giving Helena and Harry a 'sad edit'. Following a row at the firepit where Helena said she was 'done', the pair later had an emotional chat where they confirmed their romance was over and hugged it out. Later in the day Harry was seen crying in the bedroom and Helena asked if he was okay before giving him another intense embrace. But viewers were sceptical of the scenes and criticised producers for laying sad music over their conversations. Viewers said they 'weren't buying it' when it came to the 'sad edit', as they felt it was an ill-judged attempt at a 'redemption arc' for Harry. Taking to X, formerly Twitter, they said: 'I wonder if the producers realise that we're not buying it? Why is Helena acting like this is Harry's last day on Earth?'; 'I actually don't care about the saga between Harry and Helena so please end it tonight!'; 'I hope to god Helena's friends and family have a long talk with her about her self worth and how she allows people to treat her when she gets home. It makes me sad to see how much she was willing to accept and even watching her hug Harry and say she'll miss him!'; 'WHAT WAS THAT SONG DURING THE HARRY AND HELENA MOMENT ("i know i don't deserve you blah blah"),'; 'Turn this emotional music off, the Helena sad girl edit is not going to work. She was soooo horrible to Shakira when she was with Harry I cba,'; 'This whole episode is the sad Harry show & I'm done with it tbh. They've given Harry more support than either Shakira or Helena, I don't understand,'; '"I'm going to miss you" Helena, Harry isn't dying, you'll see each other at events and be back mates in no time,'; 'Why are they acting like Helena/Harry was a love for the ages? I cannot deal!'; 'Can we move on from this Helena and Harry sob story now,'; But viewers were sceptical of the scenes and criticised producers for laying sad music over their conversations Viewers said they 'weren't buying it' when it came to the 'sad edit', as they felt it was an ill-judged attempt at a 'redemption arc' for Harry 'They really gave Harry the redemption arc sickening,'; 'Are we supposed to care about Harry and Helena splitting up'; 'Is this episode meant to be music and Harry and Helena crying the whole episode in some attempt of a redemption arc,'; 'Can they wrap up this Harry and Helena storyline?? We are halfway through this episode and nothing has happened by tears ???'; 'No one else left in the villa. Why is it a harry and Helena episode. They broke up let's move on.' The aftermath of the Grafties continued for many of the Islanders during Sunday's episode, including Harry who came back into the Villa after sleeping outside. Sitting together inside, Harry and Shakira debriefed about how they were feeling. Harry said: 'I have really tried with her [Helena], but we [Shakira and Harry] had like a week and it was, for me, the feelings were obviously way stronger and still are. I'm sorry I never like tried again. I really thought the door was just, like, slammed.' Shakira replied: 'Do you want some home truths… it's obviously the way you go about it and the steps you take in between to come to these conclusions obviously hurt people along the way. Taking to X, formerly Twitter, they said: 'I wonder if the producers realise that we're not buying it? Why is Helena acting like this is Harry's last day on Earth?' 'It's all well and good you saying "hold my hands up guys, sorry" but you still hurt people.' 'And it's a pattern,' she added, before Harry confessed: 'Look, I'm either leaving here alone or with you.' Still feeling confused by the situation, Helena pulled Shakira to try and make sense of it. Shakira told Helena: 'Nothing's changed. There's been no miracle… I was saying I've not let myself heal over the situation and then he was like, "Same". I was like, "What?" He said, "I've not processed how I felt towards you, I've hopped into something with Helena." I don't understand it.' 'No, I don't understand it,' Helena said, before pulling Harry and asking him: 'Have you felt this way about Shakira this whole time?' Harry replied: 'I didn't, I just buried it all. I just didn't address any of my feelings and we were flying…' Helena went on to admit: 'I thought I had something genuine in here.' Later, Shakira too tried to make sense of how she was feeling, telling Harry: 'Like, how you're feeling now is not making sense from what I've seen for the past however many weeks.'
