Dakota Johnson shows off bikini body after split from Chris Martin
Forget ice-cream and a rom-com to mend a broken heart. For recently single Dakota Johnson, a girls' trip on a yacht is the way to go.
Fresh from her break-up with Chris Martin, the actress stripped down to a skimpy bikini for some fun in Ibiza with her girlfriends.
The Materialists star, 35, sported a white two-piece while her friend and fellow actress Kate Hudson wore a black bikini top with matching shorts as they frolicked in the Mediterranean with some girlfriends.

The girls' getaway comes one month after Johnson spilt from Coldplay frontman Chris Martin, 48, after eight years of dating. They were rumoured to have gotten engaged in December 2020 when she was seen wearing an emerald sparkler on her ring finger, but their engagement wasn't confirmed until March 2024.
'[They] got engaged years ago, but were in no rush to get married,' a source told People magazine at the time.
Sadly, the pair will no longer make that trip down the aisle following their break-up in early June, reportedly over two major factors.
'They really tried to work through their issues but the age gap was often a problem and she'd expressed that she may want children in the future, whereas Chris is kind of done with that part of his life but they discussed it,' a source told The US Sun.
The source added that the pair had been 'back and forth on issues for years' and tried to figure out a future.
'They made some beautiful memories as a family and it'll be hard for both of them to move on after such a long relationship but they will do it,' the source said.

And it appears Hudson is helping Johnson since the break-up. The inseparable girlfriends were also seen on a night out in Rome, dining at the iconic Pierluigi restaurant, where they ran into pop star Ricky Martin.
Johnson and Hudson, 46, have had similar paths in Hollywood. Both are the daughters of legendary stars Melanie Griffith and Goldie Hawn, respectively, who are long-time friends themselves.

Their mums Goldie Hawn and Melanie Griffith are also long-time friends. Picture:The pair grew up in the shadow of their famous mothers before breaking out and rising through the ranks of Hollywood.
However, Johnson's dad, actor Don Johnson, didn't want her to become an actress but rather attend the famous Juilliard School in New York.
'He said, 'If you go to college, you still get an allowance,'' she recalled on the US Today show last year. 'And I was like, 'Well, I'm going to be an actress.' So he was like, 'Alright, well you're on your own. I was cut off.'
The budding star turned to modelling for rent money as she pursued acting, but said she 'definitely had moments where I couldn't afford groceries and things like that and needed to ask my mum to help me,' she said. 'She was the nice one.'

Antler luggage managing director Kirsty Glenne reveals packing secret
Don't miss out on the headlines from Lifestyle. Followed categories will be added to My News. Antler luggage executive and frequent traveller Kirsty Glenne has her act sorted. I travel to... I've been managing director at Antler for three years now, a role in which I'm lucky enough to be able to travel around the world. I'm based in the UK and travel regularly for work, most recently to Australia, Japan and New York. Travel is central to what we do at Antler; it's so essential to immerse yourself in the brand and stay connected to our products. I travel to Australia for business at least twice a year to meet with our parent company, Strand, who are based in Sydney. It's been a privilege to get to know the city so well over the years. When I am not in the sunshine you'll find me in Norway skiing with my family. Kirsty Glenne skiing in Norway. I pack my suitcase... With packing cubes, always! I believe once you use packing cubes you will never go back. It's the best way to stay organised while travelling. I always travel with... Carry-on luggage. I commute to the office weekly so it feels like an extension of my outfit. I am currently travelling with the Antler Heritage Cabin and Tote, which is the perfect stack for on the go. If it is a five- to seven-day trip, I will use our biggest carry-on and aim to pack super-smart to avoid the hold. Travelling longer haul when I check in a medium, large or trunk, I always take a cabin case on board with my first few days' worth of outfits, just in case something goes missing. Using packing cubes is Kirsty Glenne's top travel hack. My advice for choosing the right suitcase is... Go for a brand you can trust. Luggage, previously a commodity, is now a very considered purchase that reflects your personal style, travel look, lifestyle and investment level. New and unproven brands can't really qualify a lifetime warranty, for example, as they have only been around a few years, so it's important to research before buying. Inside my carry-on you'll always find... My valuables and tech. My jewellery, laptop, phone, cables, AirPods, Antler water bottle (for sustainable water refill). I also pack a few make-up bits for a light touch-up, and my skincare. My favourite type of travel companion is... I travel often for work so when I'm going away, personally my ideal travel companion is someone who likes to take control of the planning so I can fully relax. As soon as I check in... I normally get a coffee and try to catch up on any emails ahead of the flight. I also try to stretch my legs and go for a walk before having to sit down for a long period of time. I like to get to the airport... Ahead of time. I love to study the way people travel and the airport is the perfect place to observe. On the plane I dress... For comfort, but always pack a blazer and a change of shoes in my carry-on in case I have to head straight to a meeting once I land. Kirsty Glenne is a frequent visitor to Sydney. I always get travel insurance... Because it gives me peace of mind. Whether it's a flight delay, or a medical emergency, I'd rather be safe than sorry. It's a small cost for a big safety net. At the luggage carousel... I stand back. I travel with a coral-coloured luggage strap and luggage tag which makes my luggage easily identifiable, so I don't need to stand right next to the carousel. My best tip for beating jet lag is... I use the Timeshifter app; it provides tailored advice on when to expose yourself to light, when to sleep, and when to avoid caffeine, to help you quickly adjust to new time zones. It has been a game-changer. A luggage strap can help make a suitcase stand out. The place I always use public transport in is... Japan. I recently visited and was amazed by the ease of its public transport and how punctual it was. The travel app I swear by is... Google Maps. Wherever I go, I pin locations I want to visit or have been recommended, making it easier when I arrive to see what's nearby and read reviews of restaurants or hotels. The destination I think is best bang for buck is... Somewhere that offers authenticity rather than overcrowded commercialised spots. I crave genuine experiences when I travel, places where I feel immersed in the culture. Puglia is a great example. It is less developed than the north of Italy but with stunning landscapes, amazing food and a slower pace. You still get a sense of discovery when you're there.

Sean ‘Diddy' Combs received standing ovation from fellow inmates after partial conviction
Don't miss out on the headlines from Celebrity Life. Followed categories will be added to My News. Sean 'Diddy' Combs received a standing ovation from his fellow inmates when he returned to jail after he was acquitted of sex trafficking charges in his trial. Marc Agnifilo, the lead lawyer for the Act Bad rapper, told People that his client's fellow inmates at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn, New York, viewed the partial acquittal as a sign of hope.

Picture:In this courtroom sketch, Combs reacts after he was convicted of prostitution-related offences but acquitted of sex trafficking and racketeering charges. Picture: Elizabeth Williams via AP 'They all said, 'We never get to see anyone who beats the government,'' Agnifilo said. The former Manhattan Assistant District Attorney went on to describe Combs' overall emotional and mental state, per Page Six. 'He's doing okay,' Agnifilo shared, adding that the Revolt co-founder, 55, 'realises he has flaws like everyone else that he never worked on.' Combs' mother, Janice, leaving court with other family members. Picture: Eduardo'He burns hot in all matters,' the lawyer continued. 'I think what he has come to see is that he has these flaws and there's no amount of fame and no amount of fortune that can erase them. You can't cover them up.' Last Wednesday, Combs finally learned his fate in his eight-week sex-trafficking trial after a jury reached a verdict. People react outside Manhattan Federal Court after the verdict was handed down. Picture: Eduardo/AFP The disgraced rapper was found not guilty on two counts of sex trafficking by force, fraud or coercion, and on racketeering conspiracy. However, he was convicted on two counts of prostitution, with each charge carrying a maximum of 10 years in prison. After the verdict was read, Combs' legal team urged Judge Arun Subramanian to release him on bail pending his sentencing. Subramanian denied the record producer's request because his attorneys failed to demonstrate that he posed 'no danger to any person.' Combs' sentencing hearing is set for October 3.
