Rupert Murdoch's daughter doesn't look like this anymore! Grace Deng, 24, is all grown up at the Met Gala as she arrives with her mother Wendi, 56

Daily Mail​06-05-2025
Rupert Murdoch and Wendi Deng's daughter Grace stole the show as she arrived at the Met Gala with her mother in New York on Monday in a very stylish ensemble.
Grace looked a far cry from the cherubic flower girl who walked down the aisle at the wedding of Rupert and model Jerry Hall back in 2016.
She is Wendi and former husband Rupert Murdoch's eldest daughter. They also share Chloe, 22.
Wendi and Rupert filed for divorce in June 2013, citing irreconcilable differences.
Grace, now 24, was absolutely stunning in a tailored dress from designer Thom Browne at the annual fashion extravaganza.
The off-white wool crepe and double duchess silk frock featured a smart lapel neckline.

The eye-catching ensemble also boasted horsehair canvassing which was embroidered with beads as well as external stitch embellishments.
There was also a draped pleated wool panel at the front to complete the dress which finished just below Grace's ankles.
Grace added a diamond floral motif brooch to complete her outfit, along with a pair or ornate earrings.
She finished her look with a light rose shade for her lip, a manicured brow and a subtle application of blush to accentuate her cheekbones.
Adding an air of quirkiness to her look, Grace also carried a cute dog-shaped white leather shoulder bag, also from Thom Browne, which retails for $1299.
Like her fashion forward daughter, Wendi also turned heads in a very eye-catching outfit from Thom Browne.
She looked regal in a cream tailored jacket that featured an ornate and intricate pattern achieved using a variety of embroidery techniques and materials.
The garment featured filigree hand-stitched gold beads, mixed gold Swarovski crystals, and flowers and stems in mixed gold sequins and gold bullion.

The stunning garment also boasted bead edges, embroidered beard loops and dome buttons.
Wendi, 56, also wore a matching calf-length skirt that featured front button closures, as well as a pair of cream ankle boots.
Finishing her look, Wendi accessorised with a very eye-catching fascinator to adorn her crown and a pair of equally eye-catching earrings.
Wendi added even more intrigue to her look with a smoky eye and a ruby shade on her lip, while tying her raven locks back for the occasion.
She also carried a $7000 white leather Thom Browne handbag to complete her look.
Wendi was Rupert's third wife, having previously been married to Patricia Brooker from 1956 to 1967 and Anna Maria Torv from 1967 to 1999.
Following his 14-year marriage to Wendi, Rupert tied the knot with model Jerry Hall in 2016, before their split in 2022.
He is currently married to fifth wife Elena Zhukova.
Both Wendi and Grace looked chuffed to be on each other's arm as they arrived at the glittering event

Wendi has also hit headlines with her romantic life.
In 2014, a love note she had written to Tony Blair was published in Vanity Fair, in which she lusted after his 'good body' and 'piercing blue eyes'.
The former prime minister, who is the godfather to Grace, strongly denied allegations of an affair.
She is known for keeping former flames close, and remains good friends with Rupert whom she memorably defended in 2011 by lunging at a foam pie-throwing protester who attacked him.

'I tried 5 Skims-style shaping bodysuits and this £20 one was surprisingly the best'

With it being peak occasionwear season, Mirror's shopping writer Grace has ranked the best tried-and-tested Skims-like shaping bodysuits around, with one affordable buy coming out on top Kim Kardashian's brand Skims has quickly become a cult favourite for so many thanks to its comfy, high-quality, body-positive, and even sometimes controversial (we're looking at you, Skims face wrap) shapewear and lingerie. However, with price tags of around £74 for a shaping bodysuit and sometimes into the £100s for a limited-edition collab, its shapewear is definitely an investment that not everyone has. And with it being prime occasionwear season, when you may be looking for that extra support, I'm here to help you out with tried-and-tested Skims-like shaping bodysuits to see what ranks best for compression, fit, price, and overall comfort. From Boux Avenue to H&M and even Amazon, I've rounded up my list of five of the best, depending on what qualities you are looking for, with one coming out on top. Best overall Dorina brushed micro bodysuit in brown, £20 Pros: Thong back so no visible panty line, doesn't look like shapewear so can be worn on its own; flattering square neckline; thick, quality material Cons: Thick material adds a slightly bulky layer Out of the five I tried, this brushed jersey one from Dorina was my winner. I was so surprised to feel the thick, high-quality material when I got it out of the packet, considering the affordable £20 price tag. I love that this had a thong back so there's no risk of the dreaded VPL, and the button-fastening in the crotch makes this super easy to remove. I also love the on-trend chocolate brown colour and flattering square neckline, which make this suitable for wearing out on its own. I'm usually not a fan of the trend of wearing shapewear as actual clothing, but you could 100% get away with it with this Dorina one. Not to mention, the most important aspect is that it's super supportive, smooth, and sculpting, so it will make you feel your best. My only criticism is that due to the thick brushed jersey material, if you're wearing something skin-tight, this may add a bulky-feeling layer underneath. Best for shaping and tummy control H&M Firm shape Sculpting Thong body, currently £17 Pros: Sculpts and compresses; flattering on the bust; different skin tones available Compared to the Dorina one, this sculpting thong body from H&M is more of an underwear bodysuit. It is available in five different skin tones and definitely has the most compressive effect on the stomach. If you're trying to sculpt your body for a summer wedding or event, this is one of the best choices. The sculpting material has fantastic tummy control, and if you've got smaller boobs, this helps give them a subtle lift and gorgeous shape. However, if you've got a larger chest, you may struggle getting the support you need as there is no padding or lining around the cups. Again, bonus points are given for the thong back and adjustable shoulder straps. Best chest support Dorina Mix & Match Sublime Sculpt medium control light padded thong bodysuit in black, £28 Pros: Adjustable straps; padded cups with good support for small to medium boobs; removable straps for under strapless/one-shoulder pieces Cons: Sizing only goes up to an E cup If you're looking for more support or padding around the chest area, the Sulbime Sculpt bodysuit from Dorina is your best bet. Similar to SKIMS' popular Core Sculpt Underwire Bodysuit, £149, the moulded cups and sculpted fit is so flattering. Additionally, the removable and adjustable straps make this suitable for underneath strapless and one-shoulder dresses or tops. Unfortunately, this bodysuit only goes up to a cup size D on ASOS and an E on the Dorina website, which can be quite restrictive if you've got a chest any larger. Best for affordability ZENYA Women Shapewear Bodysuit, currently £10.19 Pros: Adjustable straps; compresses the stomach well; affordable Cons: Not seamless so can show through clothing; crotch is long At under £12, this is by far the most affordable option and a great option if you want some extra shaping without breaking the bank. Made from a stretchy, lightweight nylon and spandex blend, this bodysuit is completely breathable, making it a great underlayer for summertime. It also features a tummy control body shaper without uncomfortable wires, so it's great for sculpting and staying comfy. The main issue I found with this one, however, is that it's not seamless and provides a lot of coverage on your bum, which results in a visible panty line when worn under certain tight pieces of clothing. It also doesn't have a high leg cut like the others, so it doesn't create as much of a flattering silhouette. Best for comfort Boux Avenue Smoothing Built In Support Bodysuit, £35 Pros: Thong back so no visible panty line; different skin tones available; supportive on the bust Cons: Needs smaller sizes as it doesn't sculpt/compress the stomach as well as it could The Smoothing Built In Support Bodysuit from Boux Avenue ranked highest for me in terms of comfort. With all the others, I think you would reach the end of the day feeling a sigh of relief to finally be out of your shaping bodysuit. However, this is one you could easily wear for the entire day without even having a thought that you're wearing shapewear. As with H&M's one, there is a variety of skin tones to choose from, and the adjustable straps, combined with the seamless stretch-knit material, make this great for supporting your chest. If there were smaller sizes available and/or slightly better compression on the stomach area, this would rank as my number one. The smallest size is a small cup size A-D. I'm a pretty standard size 10 and find this ever-so-slightly baggy at the waist, meaning if you were any smaller, it may border on being too big. However, this is dependent on your body shape.

The best supportive swimwear styles for bigger busts - according to a bra expert

Metro journalists select and curate the products that feature on our site. If you make a purchase via links on this page we will earn commission – learn more Bikini season is here, but for many women with bigger busts, finding the right swimwear can be a tiresome and fruitless task. With so much swimwear only available in generic, letter sizing and seldom made with larger chests in mind, it can often feel near impossible to find the perfect, actually stylish and sexy, well-fitting swimsuit – especially if you're larger up top than you are down below. And what often happens when you've not got a swimming costume that fits well? You don't feel confident or comfortable, and truly, life is too short. So, to help get our facts straight and find the swimsuit brands that truly care about your boobs (and making them look banging in a bikini), I spoke to Katie Weir (Weir Wonderful), a professional Lingerie Expert, to give us the 411. After years of swapping high street triangle bikini sets for bigger tops and smaller bottoms, Katie discovered cup-sized swimwear at age 19 and hasn't looked back since. Now, her mission is to ensure that every woman is educated when it comes to her lingerie and swimwear buying decisions. Because who wants to feel miserable at the beach? Not us. Read on for all of Katie's big boob-friendly recommendations – and some tips on finding the best styles to suit you, too. shop £25 (save £12) 'Many swimwear styles look cute but lack shape. It's the underwired designs that'll offer the lift and support you need to defy gravity. This Sapphire Seas design by Curvy Kate shows that big bras aren't boring, featuring a gorgeous electric blue design that sparkles in the sunshine (and fits all the way to a K cup!) The scooped neckline offers support with less coverage so that you can feel the warmth on your décolletage, while the bandeau style gives K cup ladies the chance to wear swimwear without the straps for minimal tan lines.' shop £37 'The best way to boost your bust for cleavage on the beach is with a balcony bikini style – this shape lifts all your breast tissue from the bottom of the cup into the top cup for Bridgerton-style cleavage! This Jet Set style from Curvy Kate is a simple black bikini designed with foam lined, underwired cups for lift and shape, making it ideal for any comfortable beach day. Fastening at the back with a clip and with fully adjustable straps, it can easily be adjusted for the perfect fit.' shop £90 'Whether you're winter swimming or just love a more covered look, this full coverage swimsuit with a chic floral print is a total must. Panache's Grace Long Sleeve Zip Front Non Wired Swimsuit which supports your bust and offers moderate coverage to the bust and arms. For added support you can wear your bikini under or feel the gentle lift of the non-wired shape.' shop £60 'Curvy Kate offers slightly sexier fits when it comes to their swimwear, and this Ziptide swimsuit is just this and more, bringing you the ultimate little black swimsuit without the wires. This fully-lined swimsuit uses quick-drying swim fabric for support and comfort, while the secure zipper front offers a sporty feel with adjustable coverage. It's even got versatile straps that allow for multi-way and a supportive racer-back position! The size range (S-XXL) fits from a 30DD/E to a J/JJ cup making this range inclusive and supportive without the wires.' shop £64 'If you want the longest pins on the Promenade, you need an adjustable leg style like this one from Curvy Kate. The Holiday Check Swimsuit features drawstring details to lengthen the leg, ruching the fabric so that it hits just above the hip for an 80's feel. You can also loosen them for more coverage. Many bikini bottoms and swimsuits now feature drawstrings for versatility *adds to wishlist*.' shop £32 'This one goes out to all the ladies who thought they couldn't wear a triangle bikini: A string bikini that supports and offers coverage without the fear of nip slip! The Ibiza Bikini is THE string bikini for summer, available from DD/E cup all the way through to J/JJ cup. It features thicker straps to ensure the weight of your bust is distributed better for less pull on your neck. You decide the coverage with the ruched cup details – from full to Love Island coverage, whatever matches your vibe. You can even do a kriss cross neckline or upside-down triangle, making this string bikini so much more than your average string bikini.' shop £42 (save £23) 'Designed to make you feel supported but still sexy, the Adella Calypso is the fuller figure swimsuit you want on your roster, available in a selection of colourful prints. More Trending This curve-friendly style features twist detail plunge cups that have been lined with supportive mesh and feature a concealed underwire for great uplift and shape. Better yet, the lightweight control mesh lining in the front offers a subtle smoothing effect, while ruching detail gently defines your waist for a snatched look that looks as good as it feels.'

Jewellery brand loved by Kate Middleton launches £29 collection perfect for anyone proud to be Welsh

As we say in Welsh, 'nid aur yw popeth melyn' ('not everything yellow is gold'), and in the case of Clogau, sometimes precious things come in beautiful silver, rose gold and red tones, with the added celebration of Welsh identity. The jewellery brand started after a man named William Roberts discovered an abandoned gold mine in the mountains of Eryri in the 1980s. Since then, Clogau has been crafting jewellery using gold sourced from the very same mine that adorns the Royal Family's wedding rings. King Charles and Queen Camilla, Princess of Wales Kate Middleton and Meghan Markle all sport Welsh gold. Clogau's jewellery is surprisingly affordable, and luckily for us, doesn't come with a royal price tag. Due to the scarcity of Welsh gold, only a small amount is included within each piece of Clogau jewellery. If you are looking for an alternative jewellery brand, Pandora has plenty of options, including its iconic charms like the Engravable Heart Tag Dangle Charm for £30. Alternatively, Swarovski is also a popular option that sells jewellery, gifts and watches. The brand also sells bag charms, such as Infinite bag charm for £69. Meanwhile, Clogau has launched a range of silver keyrings, all adorned with engravings that could evoking pride and passion in any Welsh person. Even better, the gifts are priced under £30. From superstar gigs to cosy pubs, find out What's On in Wales by signing up to our newsletter here. Insignia Heart Keyring - £29 This Clogau silver keyring comes with the brand's insignia heart, which comes in a rose gold colour, creating a sophisticated but modern look to the piece. Described as "the perfect little something", this keyring could enhance the look of your keys, zips of handbags and purses. If you want to make this gift extra special for someone, personalised engraving will cost an additional £15. While this item does not contain Welsh gold, it is made from non-precious metals, making it a durable, long lasting product that can last for many years to come. And as one happy reviewer said, this item could be the perfect gift to mark a milestone in someone's life. The shopper said: "Purchased for our niece following passing her driving test. Absolutely loves it!". WRU Welsh Heart Keyring - £29 The beating heart of many Welsh communities is their love for rugby. Clogau's WRU Welsh Heart Keyring has been created in partnership with the Welsh Rugby Union. One face of the red enamel heart carries the inscription 'Calon Cymru' ('the heart of Wales'), while the other face is embossed with the WRU Prince of Wales feathers logo. This would be an ideal gift for any rugby enthusiast - perhaps the perfect add-on to a purse or bag during a matchday at the Principality Stadium. Additionally, the WRU Welsh Heart Keyring comes with matching bracelet retailed at £139. The keyring comes in a complimentary gift box, which means you can present the gift to a special someone as soon as it arrives. The £29 gift has received over 30 reviews. One happy customer remarked: "Excellent value. Made a smashing little keepsake gift." Meanwhile, another pleased shopper reviewed: "As with all, they are are attractive and excellent gifts." But one reviewer was unhappy that the gift did not contain any Welsh gold. They reviewed: "It has no gold in it and no valuable metals so £30 is extremely high price". However, the jewellery brand's site states the keyring is made from non-precious metals and does not contain Welsh gold. Elsewhere, another happy shopper had this to say: "This is the perfect gift for my son who has moved away from Wales, he is extremely difficult to buy for, so when I saw this I knew it would be perfect". Wrexham AFC Heart Keyring - £29 Whether you are a football fan or not, it's been hard not to fall in love with Wrexham AFC's story. One of the oldest football clubs in the world faced years of hardship and was struggling. But thanks to a Hollywood takeover by Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney, the club has seen glittering success, financial stability and a global fanbase in recent years. If you know a Wrexham AFC fan, then this heart-shaped keyring is the one for them. With one red enamel side featuring the words 'Wrexham AFC' and the Welsh dragon, and the other polished side embossed with the football club's iconic crest, this is the perfect item to show off next time you're at the Racecourse. The keyring is crafted in partnership with Wrexham AFC and comes in a complimentary gift box. Additionally, the keyring comes with a matching pendant sold for £159. While the keyring has no reviews, the similarly-styled pendant has one, which reads: "A lovely bracelet reminding me of home".
