Meet Dominic West's daughters, Martha and Dora: their brother Senan starred as a young Prince William in The Crown – but which sister acted in The Pursuit of Love with Lily James and her dad?
Reflecting on the ordeal last June in an interview with
The Sunday Times' Culture Magazine , West talked about how the negative headlines had impacted his family.
'I hesitate to speak on my wife's behalf because it was obviously horrible, particularly for her,' he said. 'But we do joke about it sometimes … It was an absurd situation. It was deeply stressful for my wife and my kids, but there were lighter moments. That was the best that came out of it, really.'

The dark side of cute designer cats like Taylor Swift's Scottish Fold
Cute cats have become social media stars as of late, with many people – celebrities included – showing off their felines with photos and videos that have received millions of hits. Pop queen Taylor Swift's round-headed, big-eyed cat, a Scottish Fold, is a celebrity in its own right, and model and actress Claudia Schiffer brought her own Scottish Fold to the premiere of a film – which also featured the feline. There is, however, a darker side to this trend. For example, animal welfare advocates say Scottish Folds, known for their folded ears, are the result of harmful breeding practices. Animals bred for specific traits, like big eyes, a flat nose or unique coat colours, can struggle with health problems for their entire lives. Some may have difficulty breathing or other physical problems. Taylor Swift with her Scottish Fold cat.

He says animals are being deliberately bred with genetic defects to achieve an extravagant or cute appearance, even though the health consequences for the animals have been known for decades.
